Showreel
Here is a short video showcasing my projects, previous work experience, student work and online content- a real sum-up of me and my goals in this industry.
This is me!
Youtube
My Greatest Passion
YouTube has always been an amazing platform for me to experiment and expand my movie making skills and was a MASSIVE component in getting me an unconditional offer on the university course I am currently in my second year on- so I have no plans of abandoning it any time soon! Below are some of my favourite documentaries, series and other endeavours I have created and undertaken on my channel!
Flat Out - Series
A history series about the world of rally I have been working on for a very long time, with the finished series being 14 episodes in length. One of my biggest projects to date.
Group B - Short Documentary
The first ever documentary I attempted. It ended up garnering over 500K views, but has since been removed due to copyright infringement (this is a reupload).
1995 WRC - Full Documentary
A full YouTube documentary I completed this year which I wanted to pull out all of the stops for with my then current set of skills and experience.
Ski Holiday - Vlog
A vlog I did in Switzerland last year as a way to relax and try something a bit different from my usual norm, and partake in some actual filming for a change.
Group S - Most Viewed Video
A video that has gone on to be viewed over 100K times- not a lot for many people, but for me this marks a huge milestone in my work.
Who Do We Turn To? - Short Film
A short film I helped film and edit for our university's film jam, with the given theme of trust. A little rough around the edges, but isn't that the nature of a film jam?

Other Work
Graphic Art / Painting
Obviously just a hobby, but I've always enjoyed creating and distributing art, and of course this has gone a long way in my creative flair, as well as eyeing up a good shot and designing something that's pleasant to look at.

3D Modelling
I originally started to learn 3D modelling as a creative endeavour for my Flat Out series (see above) but since learning the basics it has become a passion of mine- I'm still an amateur, but its great to start somewhere, right?

Instagram Pages
I have started a few professional Instagram pages, some independently and some cooperatively.
The first, jackohyt, was a supplement for my main YouTube channel. I had to stop posting due to time constraints (right).
The second, jackh.media, was a "portfolio" of my work that was made available for people to view in a friendly, familiar fashion.
The third, thinkalikepodcast, was again another supplement for a channel, this time for the YouTube page of the same name.
The fourth, youvebeenspotteduk, was a car page me and my friend set up as a way to document cool cars we spotted, but presented in a uniform and clean manner.
My Experience
Store Assistant - Robertshaw's Farm Shop
June 2021 - September 2021
A lot of this job revolved around customer service and handling stock. I worked long, regular hours and my roles ranged from handling customer orders, replenishing stock in the counter and on the shop floor, moving deliveries and crates and wrapping stock in the back in preparation for being put out on shelves.
Store Assistant - Robertshaw's Farm Shop
November 2019 - June 2020
All of the responsibilities I mentioned above can be applied here- the main difference in this period of work was having to work over the busy Christmas shifts. Mid December was likely the hardest I've ever worked, and crucially it helped me develop not only my customer service skills, but also my time-management and critical thinking skills, as it was key to stay on top of customer orders to keep the queues from becoming unmanageable.
Food and Beverage Assistant - Holdsworth House
December 2018 - November 2019
Again, another job heavily centred around customer service. My roles included serving drinks and food to guests, clearing tables, aiding in the quick turnaround from venue to dining room, washing cutlery and glasses and maintaining a smart and dignified appearance. I had to overcome a lot of personal fears for this job, mainly my inability to carry multiple glasses, but overcoming it has helped me expand my potential greatly,
Assistant Editor (Work Experience) - Limehouse TV
September 2018 - December 2018
I returned to Limehouse for a second period of work experience, this time for a much longer period. This meant I could tackle a much larger project. Namely, the scripting, filming and editing of Limehouse's short Christmas message for the year. It was an incredibly fun experience, especially being able to work on my own project from start to finish.
Office Assistant - Permanent Futures Ltd.
June 2018 - August 2018
Had a number of responsibilities during my summer job at the company. I worked on payroll spreadsheets, made powerpoints to be used in meetings, worked on logos for potential future endeavours, made a few short promos and generally helped with making tea and coffee and cleaning out old office space.
Assistant Editor (Work Experience) - Limehouse TV
October 2017
An amazing first experience at a production company, I got to see the ins and outs of everyone's jobs and also had free reign of one of their editing suites to put together my version of their short Alzheimer's interview segment, being guided every step of the way by industry professionals. This was a great step into the wide world of media production, and really put into perspective what working in such a place as a career would be like- and working there would be amazing.
While a lot of this sound fairly irrelevant to my hopefully expanding experience in the media industry, skills like customer service and time management I have acquired as a result of working in these jobs I believe are invaluable, and will be of great help to me when I become a TV Runner.
