I'm Luiza Aranha, 16 years old and I was born in Brazil, São Paulo. I moved to Portugal when I was around 5 with my parents and sibling, where I studied in an international school until now.
My hobbies include drawing/sketching, reading and watching movies. In my free time I tend to watch films mainly on Netflix or TV. My top five comfort/favourite films are: Grown ups, The Harry Potter series, The Avenger series, The Help, White Chicks.




In my last year, before IB, I decided that I wanted to step out of my comfort zone and gain some independence and experience before university. Therefore I moved to England to study at Hurtwood House.
For my A levels I picked: Art, Media Studies and Business. My first choice was to chose Spanish over Media Studies. The subject of Media Studies wasn't offered to me while taking GCSE's so I didn't know what the course was about. However when I was shown the students' previous projects (opening sequences and music videoclips), I found the course to be very interesting.
In the future, I am interested to work for the film industry- specifically in animation- as a creative director/character designer therefore I found this course perfect for me. Media studies became my first choice and my favourite subject- it is interesting to learn about the film industry and how are films produced.
