" The UK’s definition of the creative industries - ‘those industries that are based on individual creativity, skill and talent with the potential to create wealth and jobs through developing intellectual property’ " - http://creativecities.britishcouncil.org/creative-industries/what_are_creative_industries_and_creative_economy
As I prefer the creative side of photography rather than the commercial I will be creating a series of images to exhibit in a gallery rather than working for a company. Although many people go on to work for a company as a career to earn money, this is not the route I want to take as I enjoy the creative side much more as I can express myself and my ideas in more depth.
I will continue with the creative work side by finding opportunities to exhibit images and post my work on sites like Behance, Flickr, Lensculture and Instagram. I will also enter competitions on sites and in newspapers. This will allow my work to get noticed by a wider audience and other creative professionals who may take an interest and offer paid work like asking me for a series of images for a specific brief for an exhibition.
By following the creative route. I will be always be able to enjoy the work that I do, even if I am given a set brief I can still add my own expressive twist to the work.
