About me
Dear Employer,
As an undergraduate with a strong desire to work in television production, and a good interest in media, I believe I am a good candidate to be working for you.
You will see that I have gained a wide variety of both transferable and specific skills, which relate to working in media:
Television experience: my work experience placement as a Vision Mixer and a VT Operator at YCTV gave me invaluable insight into the television process; with hands on experience of studio filming, theory work and general Runner duties. My time at YCTV required me to work film crews and artists. Clear, concise and often very sensitive communicational skills were required.
Interest in the Media: My enjoyment and critical interest in the media (television, film, music, and new media) increased markedly throughout my degree, and has continued to grow since then.
Computer skills: During University I expanded my knowledge and confidence of softwares such as:- Final Cut Pro, Flash, Photoshop, Logic Pro.
Writing/research skills: My degree has proven my ability to express critical opinions within a sustained argument. A high level of research and analytical reading was essential to reach this standard. The experiences of writing essays have increased my confidence in these skills.
