The Top 10 Reasons You Should Hire Me for the Production Assistant Position as Posted on HotJobs.com:

10. I am an Eagle Scout (BSA) (1997).

9. I am bilingual: Spanish and English.

8. I graduated from Emerson College with 3.8 GPA (2002); received Dean of School of Communications Scholarship freshman year.

7. I performed voice-over for books on tape for the blind and reading-challenged at Trail’s End Summer Camp (1995-6).

6. At Forever Memorable Productions, I videotaped weddings for Newton, MA, photographer Gilly Chestnut (1997-8). (Portfolio available upon request.)

5. I created and wrote a series of articles for New England Film.com on class clowns in John Hughes movies (subsequently not posted due to staff layoffs).

4. I performed administrative duties at a summer internship at WGBH, dubbing tapes, delivering tapes, watching dubbed tapes to make sure that there were not any technical errors (2000-2).

3. I am familiar with Adobe Premiere V6.0 and Final Cut Pro. Assisted in running native DV using the Matrox RT-2500 video card on a P4 2G platform. Enrolled in After Effects weekend course, developing motion paths, grafting a single footage layer onto multiple particles to create a multitude of images that spill and bounce, and use Render Queue to render several versions of the same composition more efficiently.
