Sony Camera ZV-E10 ART Student UK
How difficult is it for Art Students to get funding (loans) for Art Equipment such as the Sony Camera ZV-E10 to help further their creative careers? Melody (our daughter) hopes to promote her Art and Music on YouTube
This Camera takes amazing photographs and has high quality video and sound, so it seems like the perfect fit.

WE BELIEVE THIS IS A GREAT CAMERA FOR ART STUDENTS
Melody (ART STUDENT) asked her Photography College Tutor about this Camera and he gave this Sony Camera ZV-E10 the thumbs up. She has researched the camera beforehand. Melody was a Child YouTube Artist who received quite a following. She had over 80,000 hits on her original FLOWER ALIEN character design when she was 7 years old. See below image (on the left). Her Art has really progressed since. On the right you can see her Mushroom Alien Character (she created this year age 19 years). Melody hopes to get a Macro lense which will enable her to take high quality shots of her Artwork, and use the Camera for vlogging about Music and Art. She may even teach Art again online.
STUDENT FINANCE TO BUY ART EQUIPMENT HOW DIFFICULT IS IT?
How difficult is it to get Student Finance for Art Equipment etc? It is very hard to prove who you are in the UK now, especially if you do not have the money for a Passport or Driving Licence. Years ago a Birth Certificate and National Insurance Number was all you needed. Very unfair system, that sadly discriminates against the Working Class. A Driving Licence and Passport are luxury items, that would not get used by a student on a low income.
I will update this Blog to let you know how we got on with getting Finance for our Art Student Daughter to get this Camera and the Lenses.

THE ARTISTIC DREAM
The dream for Melody is to start Vlogging about her Art, Music and Books. She has been so busy studying that her New YouTube Melody Angel ART Channel has a way to go before she gets a following. But it will happen eventually:
INSTAGRAM - MELODY ANGEL ART
Melody has a following on Instagram. So hopefully she will be able to do the same with YouTube.
HOW MELODY'S ART HAS PROGRESSED FROM A CHILD ARTIST
At 7 years old Melody (she was called Little Snowflake Art and Snowdrop) created this very cute Original Flower Alien Character and had over 80,000 hits on YouTube:
RAISING MONEY FOR EDUCATION AND ART EQUIPMENT
Have you ever tried to raise money with a online Competition?

I was told that I needed a Charity to do this Art Commission Pet Portrait Competition for our daughter to raise money for her Art and Music Education. And found it impossible to find a charity to support my daughter. Thankfully, after much asking around we found out the Charity was not necessary as it is a Competition and not a Raffle as such.
Even though a kind Councillor said yes to us putting up the Pet Portrait Commission in the Park (A4 Size) the powers that be said "NO!" The British Elite "No" is their favourite word. We did have some kind friends support us. But we raised under £100, of which we are very grateful, but know if we had support with advertising she would have reached her target. Not enough free support for students in the UK, that is for sure. We will try again this year, but will see if we can get support overseas. The thing that upsets me the most is how the RUGBY in Wales gets all the funding, and the Arts get nothing. Small Businesses fund the Rugby in the Park with £300+ business banners. And we were not allowed to put up a A4 Poster to help Melody fund her Art and Music Education. Very unfair it you ask me! I believe Parks should allow Community Notice Boards. Especially as we have to pay for the park through Council Tax.

MELODY THE SINGER/SONGWRITER AND MUSICIAN
There is already a Melody Angel Singer/Songwriter/Musician in the USA. So even though Melody was named Melody Angel at birth, we do not want to cause any problems for the American Artist; therefore, we changed her Music name to Melody Angelicus.
Here is Melody's original song Broken Souls, her Dad took her original melody and created the music:

Melody plays the Classical Guitar and Cello. She is also part of a Cello Group. Here she performed her Lockdown Robin song about feeling lonely with a local Orchestra:
Melody's Cello Teacher studied with William Pleeth and Jacqueline Du Pre. She sees great potential in Melody as she can play in Colour. This tutor does not take on beginners but she saw something special in our daughter. We are very lucky to have this Private Mentor and look forward to seeing Melody perform a solo one day.
The Amazing Jacqueline Du Pre
BESPOKE EDUCATION
Melody is an Artist and hopes to create Character Designs for books and films in the future. She is still studying Art.
She is also a Singer/Songwriter, Musician and Creative Writer. In the future she hopes to finish her book she is writing, illustrate it and compose/create the music for the story.
I wish Melody had more time to study. She has to spend a lot of time travelling to College and back. Lots of Homework. As Anthony Hopkins (Actor) states, it is very important to relax your brain. I am not sure Students get time to really relax. Quite sad really.
THIS MAY BE OF INTEREST TO MUSIC STUDENTS

I HOPE ALL STUDENTS GET A BESPOKE EDUCATION ONE DAY
