What I'm looking for

I am looking for any entry level role

I am an entry-level and two times bachelor's degree holder in multimedia and journalism with a strong academic experience in documentary production, video editing, news reporting, and basic graphic design. Actively seeking remote opportunities to learn, contribute, and grow. Through my academic projects, I gained hands-on experience in documentary storytelling, basic news reporting, video editing, and content creation, taking on roles such as director, producer, and editor in student productions. I also have foundational knowledge of graphic design, which supports my ability to create simple, effective visual content for digital platforms. I have won a Creative flair award at the school of Communication in the University of Johannesburg. I also became a student mentor and a student representative for a period of two years. I am looking for any entry level role which falls under Media or communication.
