Guest Lecturer
It was really nice to have Ewan Burnett as the beginner for our guest lecturer series project at RMIT. I always wanted to listen those people who are actually working in the media industry so that I could know something that is different from the book. Each and every day is a big opportunity to hunt down experience for myself, and I wanted to listen to others’ experiences so that I do not have to wait so long to get the same experience. It was really nice to know that Ewan Burnett has survived very well in the industry though he had come a long way. The best thing that I learnt from his talk is patience. But honestly I believe sometimes patience gets defeated, especially when money is involved.
Burnett said that we all are storytellers and that is why we should engage our audience with the story whether it is an adult or children’s production. At the talk he said that some people did underestimate him because he was involved with a lot of children’s productions. I was really surprise how someone from same industry could underestimate a production, because of whether it is for children or adults. We all should respect each and every production because we all are passionate about our work and that is why we are here in the media industry. If we do not produce good productions for our children and do not engage them with media entertainment, then probably one day will come when there will be no passion for media work.
