In 2023 summer at Birmingham City University, I have finished my undergraduate degree in Digital Media Computing, with 2:1, it was a good experience to learn both filmmaking and programming at the same time, as it gave me a new experience in videography and 3D modelling and animation, and has thought me new programming languages to the ones I already had, such as python and javaScript.
