About Me!
My name is Charlotte Rose Wakerley! I am 19 years old and I studied Creative Media Production (Level 3) at Gloucestershire college from 2021 to 2023 and I currently have a part time paid role at the travel tech company, Inspiretec! I got into media after making movie trailers and short films on iMovie with my sisters and after visiting the green screen section at Harry Potter Studios Tour London, I was extremely hooked to filmmaking!
In my free time I love to create and edit videos (as you might've already guessed), I attend dance classes, I love going to the theatre to watch shows and going to the cinema to see the latest films.
I am off to study Visual Effects and Motion Graphics BA (Hons) at the University of South Wales this year as I would love to be a Visual Effects Artist in the future and I'm looking forward to creating and learning new skills at my time there this year!
