About Me

Hi
My name is Mohammad Ebrahimpour. I'm 19 years old and Since I'm very interested in Media, I decided to do my studies in this route. Currently I'm studying level 3 Creative Media Production at City of Westminster college. In this course I have developed my filming and editing skills, and i have learnt the basics of planning a project, I have also learn some skills on lighting which i didn't know anything about.
Overall I'm happy with the course im studying and i enjoy it alot.

I live in London. More specifically in a area called ''Acton'' for about more than two years with my family. I have a five year old brother and a fifteen year old sister and I'm the eldest child in my family.

I am also intrested in different areas like sport and films and a bit of politics. My favourite tennis player is Roger Federer who is world number 3 now. In football I support chelsea and my favourite players are peter cech, John Terry and Frank Lampard. I don't like any particular politician and they are all the same.

There are some stuff that everybody likes. For example music, film or a hero. Well for music I like the American rappers and pop however I rarely find something intresting from UK as well. My favourite top artists are Kanye West, Eminem, Dr.dre and Jay-Z.

When I just begin to think of a good film I just say the godfather, and I can watch it over and over again. I think this film is a master piece and everything is just right. I think you can't tell your favourite films and they are all good in a different sort of way. But I like Comedy, Action, Drama film and political, social documentaries so I watch panorama sometimes.

There is only one show that I watch on TV and that is Top gear. I love this programme and it is my dream to make something like that myself. I like the presenter because they are funny and serious at different times and maybe because I like Motoring as well. It is also good to know that I like gadgets too since I have mentioned cars.

In the last academic year I was studying L2 media production at Ealing college and I have created some short clips in that time.

In this example I had to create a 10 shot sequence film of a person who looses his wallet and somebody sees him he gives it back to him. I wanted to add a bit of comedy so I changed thing in the editing part.

This video is from this year and I helped making this film.

I have been inspired by number of people for different reasons. Like Steve Jobs for his courage to change the world and creating a better life for everyone. Martin Luther king who was looking for equality, justice and happiness for everyone and lost his family and life for that.
