From age 11, the digital revolution fascinated me, sparking my passion for creating videos with just a GoPro camera. This hobby, capturing life's dynamic moments, evolved into Cherry Top Media, my own business focusing on photography and videography. Over four years, what began as creative exploration turned into a sustainable freelance venture, complementing my academic pursuits. 🌐🎥
My enthusiasm for photography, in particular, led to a noteworthy achievement: being a finalist in the 2018 PhotoBox Instagram Photo Awards (PIPAs), distinguishing myself as the youngest photographer in the finals from across Europe. I also had the privilege of creating billboard campaigns in Time Square New York, Sweden, and multiple in London as part of a Spotify, YouTube Music, and Amazon Music campaign for Young T and Bugsey. 📸🏆🌍
Pursuing a career in the creative industry, I furthered my education at the Confetti Institute of Creative Technologies, earning a BTEC Level 3 extended diploma in film and television production, followed by a BSc in Television Production Technology. These experiences honed my skills across the full spectrum of production, from conceptualisation to post-production, alongside nurturing my creative and technical expertise all whilst running my own creative media business. 🏫📚🎬
As I progress, I am now focused on my personal brand Harry Stokoe, advancing my individual capabilities in creative media production and social media marketing. 💼🌟📱
