On 11th November the we travelled to the new Regent's Street Cinema to attend a talk and workshop with noted journalist Anna Smith. She told us about how she got into journalism, and in particular her experiences as a film journalist for magazines such as Empire, Time Out and Sight and Sound. She also spoke about her writing for music magazines and women's magazines and gave us invaluable tips on networking, developing a career and journalism, working to deadlines and how to engage an audience. Leyton students asked a range of interesting questions and impressed Anna with their intelligence and enthusiasm. Students were able to use this opportunity to help them plan for the journalism they are writing for their own music magazine.
