- shooting short videos
- editing clips for social media
- planning scenes or storyboards
- analysing films and creators
- recording interviews, events or tutorials
Film Making & Video Editing is a useful clue, not a label. It shows what catches your attention, how you approach challenges and what kind of progress feels satisfying. You do not need to be the best at it for it to count. Curiosity, practice and the way you respond when something goes wrong can all be evidence of strengths.
Budi combines this signal with your other interests, experiences and preferences. One activity can lead towards several industries, and the same strength can show up in many different jobs.
- planning a story for a clear audience
- framing, lighting and recording usable sound
- organising footage and editing to purpose
- giving and receiving creative feedback
- managing files, deadlines and permissions
- storytelling
- visual judgement
- technical confidence

- empathy for an audience
- Film, television and online production

These are examples rather than a fixed list. Entry routes can include college, sixth form, apprenticeships, volunteering, short courses, self-directed projects and learning on the job.
Easy start: Make a 30-second sequence with a beginning, middle and end.
Medium: Plan, shoot and edit a one-minute video for a specific audience.
Stretch: Create a short film with roles, permissions, captions and a feedback round.
When Budi sees film making & video editing, it looks for evidence in what you actually did: the decisions you made, skills you practised, problems you solved and ways you helped other people. It uses those signals to suggest role types, industries and realistic next steps. It is here to widen your options, not box you in.
There is no single “right” way to take part. You can adapt the pace, tools, environment, communication method or physical demands. Digital versions, assistive technology, seated approaches, quieter spaces, extra processing time and support from another person can all count. Choose safe, accessible settings and ask schools, clubs, training providers or employers about reasonable adjustments. Watching, planning, researching, organising and supporting others are real forms of participation too.
