Dear UAV Coach,
Thank you so much for taking the time to review my resume. My latest position has allowed me to develop
a corporate imaging platform that is relevant in today’s dynamic video production market. Coupled with my
experience in the consumer arena, audio and live-media production and photography, I bring the nessassary
background, experience and creativity to not only contribute to your team, but also to foster growth and col-
laboration.
While my passion and principal focus of my education, training and career have been in the visual and techni-
cal skills of video production, I have built a strong foundation of project - management skills, logistics exper-
tise and team-building knowledge. Developing and sustaining employee and client relationships has allowed
me to develop procedures that expedite the process without cutting the quality of my work. I create an image,
tell a story and pay attention to the bottom line.
Please let me know when we can get together to discuss this opportunity. I would love to have the chance to
answer any questions and talk more about the job.
Warm Regards,
Ben Strong
