I feel I would be perfect for any role you may have in video journalism as it is simply my greatest passion. For a long time I wished to direct, but quickly learned that I was capable of more than just directing. I am also adept at presenting, voiceovers, using initiative to create the perfect VT under a voiceover, and my editing skills are very strong indeed. I am skilled at every editing software from iMovie to Premier Pro CS5.5, and enjoy any form of editing. I have had experience creating videos from scratch, both live news and creative videos. I have already created videos for Audi, and have created videos and presented in videos throughout my university course.

I can assure you that accepting me as a candidate would be highly beneficial. I have a superb work rate, and nothing motivates me more highly than a superb and impeccable finished product that is engaging to the public eye. I am aware that with the changing face of media, publications and media companies must adapt, and so I have endeavoured to become an expert in forms of social media and video technology, to ensure that I am as up to date as possible.

Thank you for taking the time to read my application, and I sincerely hope to hear from you soon. My apologies again, for submitting the application late.

Kind regards,

Benjamin R Read
