Contents of the video

Alright folks, have you done a, or sorry, should I say, did you do a DJ Mag Micro Mix? Have you done quite a few 10 minute mixes? Right, if you have, just bear those in mind for a tiny bit. Right, now then, what I would like you to do, I would like you to almost get together a portfolio through videos. Now then, this is how, first of all, this is what a portfolio is, if you don't know. Let's say you're an artist, okay, and over a period of time you've... All of a sudden you're going to an interview to get a job. What would happen is you would put all of your pictures in a folder, take that and that's almost like your portfolio. That's showing the interviewer what you can actually do. So that's half really of the interview. The other half is them having a chat with you and almost getting to know you as a person. Now then, of course logically we can't really do this

Www.ellaskins.co.uk If you are under the age of 18 or 16, I suggest you ask an adult first to make sure this is okay. And just watch the video of you talking about you. That's what it's all about, okay? So this is a bit of a portfolio for you. Theoretically, which has been happening, people have got work from doing videos, 10-min mixes on YouTube. There is a good chance if you get your act together, you could start getting work as well, alright? Don't forget, do not leave any personal information at this time, okay? Please leave this as a video response underneath this one. I'm going to stop this now, by the way, practice and enjoy.
