This lecture enlightened us on 'What does what' in the UK Economy 'the 7th Largest Economy in the world'
The main areas in the economy are:
Primary Sector - extraction and harvesting of natural resources
Secondary Sector - Processing, manufacturing and construction.
Tertiary Sector - Knowledge and services
but there are these sectors:
1st Sector - Public
2nd Sector - Private
3rd Sector - Volunraty
However - due to the nature of our course, the main interest taken from this Lecture is 'The Creative Industries'. We need to be aware what is out there, what it does, and who is looking for us and where. There is a range of different Industries labelled under 'Creative', from Architecture to Crafts, Film Video and Photography to Television and Radio. We have always got to be aware of where our funding is coming from (as the Government cut budgets for certain Creative activities) and the support that independent companies give. 'Creative England' is a company set up for Yorkshire in Yorkshire which supports creative Industries - this will hopefully be very useful to the creative climate here.
