To Whom It May Concern:
My name is Jason Natzke and this letter is to express my interest in an employment
opportunity at your company. My goal is to provide assistance, teamwork and
leadership of the highest quality, in any way I can. Please allow me to briefly
describe my professional experience, highlighted in greater detail by resume.
I have over five years of experience in assistant work in the film industry, as I have
served as a Production Assistant at both major television studios such as ABC and
Warner Brothers, in addition to smaller companies on both ends of the country. I
have been able to shadow industry veterans and gain important knowledge
regarding what makes both a successful production as well as what it takes to be a
powerful and creative artistic force. In addition, I have spent extensive time both
on set and in an office, ranging from popular television shows such as Mike and
Molly to smaller, independent sets such as American Film Institute s Towing. I have
valuable understanding and awareness in regards to what is required of oneself to
work on a production, specifically the importance of completing tasks to the best of
your ability in a timely manner. It is through these various positions that I learned
both the value of leadership and importance of working with efficiency.
My strengths include a positive attitude and drive, outstanding customer service
ability, strong communication skills and a deep understanding of respect and
authenticity. In addition, I am highly skilled in Microsoft Office, as well as film
editing programs such as Final Cut Pro, Soundtrack Pro and DVD Studio Pro.
I strive to achieve excellence and integrity in everything that I do and I believe that
this intention, paired with my passion for film and telling impactful stories, makes
me a unique and qualified candidate for a position at your company.
I am excited for my next opportunity for growth and I look forward to speaking with
you soon.
Respectfully,
Jason Natzke
