Personal Statement of Dou Fang (at least 500-word)
我是一个爱好新鲜的人。从我小时候开始，我就每时每刻都有强烈的refresh myself的愿望，不管是很小时候所拥有的玩具，还是我懂事之后所读的书本，再到后来，我发现我会不断的获取新的信息，这样的我会感到十分满足。我同时也愿意以我的理解把所了解掌握的东西表达给其他人所让他们知道。后来我在大学时终于明白原来我一直是一个“传媒人”。
I love new things.When I was still young, I owned the wish of refreshing myself every second in my daily life.From the toys I had and the books I touched, I found an exciting fact that I prefer the proce of collecting new information and thus getting satisfaction,.Meanwhile, I would like to share the knowledge with my friends.When I entered the university, I finally realized that I was a‘media man’.记得我从小就爱看电视，不管是什么节目。父亲爱好摄影，总会带我到各处照相，母亲是做图案设计工作的设计师，似乎这三者联系起来可以得到什么，没错，就是我，一个总会有很多创意的新点子，又喜爱记录身边的人、事、物，最好是动态的„„于是在当时，北京广播学院（现中国传媒大学）就是我一直的梦想。我要靠自己的努力去实现它！高中时，我就积极参加校学生电视台的工作，校刊的版面设计美编工作，以及各类活动的策划工作等。这些经历都使得我在跨入媒体工作者行业的大门更近了一步。
For my father has a habit of taking photographs, and my mother always designs patterns, my family impact me so much.The influence results in that I, always spilling outmany creative ideas, tend to record persons and things around, especially dynamic ones.At that time, when I knew a little about Beijing Broadcasting Institute ( now Communication University of China)中传, I cognized thatit was an appealing place, which could give me an opportunity to make my dream come true.So I made my mind to enter that university with my endeavour.When I was in my senior school, I worked in student TV station, participated in designing layout of school magazine and other activity planning..All these valuable experiences made me closer to the career of a median.自身的兴趣爱好和过去的努力最终换来的回报（成果）使我在2006年顺利地通过了中国传媒大学的艺术类招生考试并收到了广播电视编导专业的录取通知书。我更加珍惜这样一个能让我有充分空间来发展自己展示自己的环境了。在刚入学的时候，我的老师就告诉我们说，在传媒领域做工作，理论和实践各有它的特点，我们应当在充分掌握理论基础的情况下多去实践，才能有效果。跟随他的建议，我大二上学期去了中传手机电视台来兼职实习，在那里担任摄像、编辑及后期包装的工作。这是我第一次在正规的电视机构实习，同时又可以作为一次新媒体领域的尝试。手机媒体有其自身的特点，虽然我在课堂上就了解了这点，但在手机电视台的实习却让我在实践中对手机媒体的特点有了深刻的切身体会。举个简单的例子，在我刚到那里制作第一期节目的时候，我十分认真努力地构思设计了每一处环节，可是拿到责编那里去审核的时候，却被要求重新来过。因为我没有充分的考虑到手机媒体的特点，观众在小小的屏幕上观看视频同我们日常看电视是有很大不同的。我明白了在制作任何节目的时候，都要充分考虑到它的特点，不然的话是无法达到预期目标甚至起到相反效果的。这次实践经历也让我对新媒体领域产生了浓厚的兴趣，我感到它将在未来有更广阔的发展。它蓬勃的生命力使我非常渴望将来在新媒体领域有所作为。
My interestin media and my nonstop struggle, in the end, help me enrolled in major of TV editing and directing in Communication University of China.And I valued the opportunity to fully show myself to others.When I just enter the university, my adviser told me thatin media, practice and theory both have their unique characteristics while it is effective that we should practise more on the base of solid theory foundation.So, when I was a sophomore, I got a practical training in mobile TV station in our university, shooting camera, editing and packing.This is my first- time internshipin a formal television institution; also, I treat it an attempt to the field of new media.Despite I had already known the fact that mobile phone media had its own character, Igained a lot form the job.I still remember the first program I made.I tried my best to design each detail, but was still ordered to do it again after audit, resulting from that I failed to consider the specific of mobile phone mediadifferent from ordinary television media in our daily life-.During the proce, I learnt that every program should be thought about its own character; otherwise, it was not easy to reach the goal, even would be counterproductive.This experience also made me interested in the field of new media which I have a strong premonition will have more advancement in the future.I am eager to make achievements in this area full of vitality.在积极参加各种实践的同时，我从未放松对专业课的学习。我深知作为一名广播电视编导专业的学生，过硬的技术是我日后制作媒体节目所必须具备的工具。而优秀的节目还需要有吸引人的内容，这依赖于媒体工作者对时代脉搏的准确把握，对日常生活的深入思考，对多种知识的积累。在大学期间，我不放过任何机会，积极地培养着自己的这种能力。在2009年中华人民共和国举办国庆阅兵活动前夕，我得知为了国庆阅兵，被称为“中华第一街”的西长安街将要实施道路拓宽改造工程。祖祖辈辈在那里居住的居民将不得不搬离红墙根。我敏锐地感到这将是一个非常值得记录的事件。因此我迅速制定好计划，将这一新闻事件进行了报道。但是在采访后不久，这里很快就被夷为平地，当时的被采访对象们现在都已不知去向，这篇报道也已经成为对这片最后的角落的记忆。这部作品最终被提名为“最佳电视新闻”，然而对我来说重要的并不是这一奖项，而是我对社会的思考。
Despite attending various practices and internships, I never fall behind in study.I got to know deeply from matriculation that as a student major in TV Editing and Directing a solid foundation in technic will be neceary in producing media program afterwards.Besides, an outstanding program must be attractive which relies on a good master of time changing, a deep thinking of daily life and accumulation of broad knowledge.In college, I grasped each chance to actively cultivate that kind of ability.On the eve of 60th National Day Parade in 2009, I got an information that West Chang’an Avenue known as China First Street was about to be widen for convenience of parade which resulted that residents who lived there for generations were forced to leave forever.I incisively noticed it a valuable news material, thus rapidly setting down the plan and reporting in time.Soon after interview, flat replaced previous hutong and interviewees then could hardly be found again now, so this report has been the eternal memory of this last corner.This works is succefully nominated as “The Best TV News” at last while to myself, the most important gain is what the society reflects to me.
转眼到了大四，在三年的学习结束后，我开始了全职的实习生活。同学们纷纷选择各大媒体进行实习，我却觉得自己应该更广泛的接触各种文化，于是我选择了在文化部民族民间文艺发展中心实习。这里的第一个任务是剪辑一部人类学纪录片。之前自己在人类学方面一无所知，因此我充分感觉到作为媒体工作者应该广泛涉猎各种领域的知识，才能有一个更好的发展。之后我在那里的工作得到肯定，被任命担任“十部民族民间文艺集成志书编纂出版纪实”《追寻历史的风》这部专题片的副导演。由于这部片子要在国家大剧院进行为期一个月的展映和在人民大会堂举行会议时播放，当时感到任务艰巨责任重大。但是面对纷繁复杂的素材时，正是由于之前我在工作中对于民族传统文艺知识的学习，才使得我前期工作时就为后期剪辑争取了更多时间，保证最终的成片是最完善最能够让人满意的。
After three years’ study, I started to step in full-time internship.When other students chose major media institution, I persisted in my mind of contacting with various culture, so I came to Center for Ethnic and Folk Literature and Art Development, Ministry of Culture, P.R.C.The first task I met with was editing a anthropology documentary.Before that I have nothing about
anthropology which made me realize the importance of referring a variety of areas of knowledge as a communication practitioners.Due to my good work winning colleagues’ approval, I was
appointed as the aistant director of “Pursuing the Trace of History - The Records of Compilation and Publish of Books Focusing on 10 Perspective of Chinese Traditional Arts”.I felt it an arduous task and a heavy responsibility in that this documentary would display in National Grand Theater lasting for one month and in The Great Hall of the People during conferences.Facing complicated materials, I saved much precious time in early working for late editing because of my previous study of Chinese traditional culture, thus guaranteeing a satisfying result.
经过了这些年的学习实践认识，我感到自己若想在媒体领域进行更好的发展，需要的是更进一步的学习，正好XXX学校的XXX专业正是适合我进行继续深造的。我未来的终极目标是能够成为一个专业的制片人，自己仅仅靠大学本科所学习的内容还远远不够，而且，不仅仅是学术能力，人生阅历和文化认知同样重要。香港这座城市恰巧是一个中西文化融合的地方，也作为亚洲的经济中心源源不断地接收着来自世界各地的新鲜事物、新鲜想法。相信如果我能够在香港学习一段时间的话，我将能够成长得更快，更多。
After these years’ study and practice, I feel it important for me to pursue further study if achieving a better development in media area and major of XXX in XXX University would be a perfect match to me.My ulterior objective is to become a profeional producer.Through my experience, I find that what I have learnt in undergraduate is far enough.Life experience and
culture awarene as well as academic ability play equally.Hong Kong happens to be somewhere witnees a integration of Chinese and Western culture.Moreover, as the economic center of Asia, this city continuously receives fresh things and ideas from all over the world.I believe I would achieve more if being able to study in Hong Kong.
