EOC: Career Goals

I've always seen myself as a busy, productive person. For today my goal is to put my Video Production company together within the next year. Since I don't have a big budget, I will start as a freelancer doing commercials, live events, music videos, short films. By the third year I am planning to have 5 employees such as: editor, visual effects, script writer, audio and camera specialist.

My first big achievement was a music video for the local band. My husband and me developed the concept, wrote a script, did storyboards, filmed and edited on our own. It took a lot of time to find the talent, make costumes, scout the location and got permission to shoot. In the beginning it seemed hard, but step by step we managed to accomplish our plan.

After the presentation of the music video a few artists contacted us to do theirs. Small business owners got interested in our job too. Today we've signed the contract for $3000 to make a commercial for the lawyer. I did a business plan to know how much to charge, what profit my company will make from each project. By the end of the year I am planning to start making money from my education. I am developing my website, buying license, equipment and putting my name in the market.

I think my strong factors are ability to control and organize. I hope I will be able to have clients, produce good quality of work and be able to provide people with work
