About me

Dear Sir / Madam

Good afternoon, my name is Patrick Ryder, I am currently the lead designer at the UK's largest special interest DVD and video supplier. I have extensive knowledge of both Mac and PC interfaces and art programmes such as Photoshop, Photopaint, Illustrator, Flash, Swift and more and have worked in the entertainment sector for some time now.

I have created DVD packaging and advertising for major companies such as the BBC, ITV, Channel Five, The Biography Channel, The History Channel, Oxfam and M&S. I have also created advertising and artwork for magazines such as Heat, Now, HEW, RRP magazine and Boxing Monthly. I also possess fine art and illustrational skills that can also be incorporated into advertising and graphical art work. I have previously worked for a website design company where I created Flash animations and small mini Flash movies for clients and have recently completed work on an entire new website including flash banners and examples of my work.

I want to further my skills and experiences and develop new techniques and work as part of a team to achieve objectives. Please find attached my CV.

Thank you for taking the time to read my covering letter and I hope to hear from you soon.

Yours Thankfully

Patrick Ryder
