Professionalism

Overall, how do each of these characteristics of professionalism apply to filmmaking? How do they apply to your daily work in this class? Please select three characteristics to give real life examples of how you can work toward improving them in this class.

Please write a complete paragraph on each of three characteristics, along with an introduction paragraph.

1. Appearance
Appearance is important both from a professional perspective but also from an logical perspective. As desirable it is for people to be judged based on the quality of their work, it is most common that appearance plays a large role in the judgment of others. If everyday is an interview for a potentially offered job, dressing professionally is a must. This would include wearing appropriate clothing without obvious distress or avoiding clothes that may be worn as sleepwear.
2. Reliability
Being a reliable worker is a necessary employability skill. This means one must be early to the scheduled time and turning in assignments on time. This may also mean that one is able to complete a task even in sudden notice. The fact that someone can depend on you at all times creates a better chance to be hired.
3. Organizational Skills
Having organizational skills can also lead to other professional skills such as reliability. A messy file storage system can not only be an annoyance for the user themselves, but it is also frustrating for a client because of the inefficiency that could have been avoided. Sorting files correctly in a folder both on the cloud storage and in projects help work to be finished faster.
