To write a CV for a particular job you need to be specific in what you write about tailored for that industry.
With the Media industry, you concentrate mainly on the qualifications and experience related to Media for example if you have taken film studies for A level, or Media, Journalism, multi media diplomas etc.
For the experience section you focus on any past jobs or work experience/internships you have had related to the media industry, e.g. Working for a production company, for BBC, Channel 4, Film companies, newspaper firms, magazine firms, advertising, marketing or copywriter fields, social blogging, website content editor etc.
You do not include irrelevant pieces of information that is not media related and your interests should be referring to the industry as well to make it more specific.
For example if you like social blogging, writing, filming, photography, writing articles, producing short documentaries etc. these are all media related and therefore would show you are passionate about the field you want to go into.
