My Cover Letter for Ben Manilla Productions

Subject: Internship – Jodan Lavigne

Dear Ben,

As a 2nd year student attending The University of San Francisco (USF) this fall, reading media productions. Ben Manilla Productions has come very highly recommended by Lydia Fedulow at the media studies Department as a great place to obtain an internship to learn more about the business end of radio productions to earn University credits, after looking at your web site, I would certainly agree with her. During my time attending St Mary’s Twickenham University in the UK I have gain great experience in the disciplines of radio, TV and film production. I have an understanding of the varied practises relating to audio and image; this includes asset gathering and management, scriptwriting, multimedia editing and web production.

At USF I will be studying music technology, digital journalism and studies of popular music which I hope can be put to good use and practice within Ben Manilla Productions. From high school, through to sixth form and now at university I have created a range of my own products; these include documentaries, music videos, video podcasts, audio podcasts magazine covers and double page spreads and also the soundtracks for the video productions. I have cross platform expertise in Windows and Mac. I am familiar with MS Office Suite and can use a range of mac software programmes such as iWork, iMovie, Garageband and Photoshop CS5.1

During my time at university, I have worked part time mainly long and unsociable hours with an events management company called Eve Trakway. I have earned a reputation for consistently exceeding company and customer expectations working as part of a dynamic team under pressure to meet crucial deadlines and often within short timescales. I am very impressed by BMPs innovation and success, and I would very much like to be part of such a winning company.
 The enclosed resume provides more detail of my skills and achievement track record. Thank you for your time as I know you are very busy and for any consideration. I would be pleased if I am provided with an opportunity to gain this experience and shall be in San Francisco from mid-August and would like to meet up with to discuss the possibility of an internship.

Sincerely Jodan Lavigne
