I am genuinely impassioned about filmmaking and working in this industry. Whether on the smallest of independent scales or at the level of a major studio/company, I have come to find that I'm truly at my happiest while on set - no matter what the set is.
I'd like to think of myself as a legitimately hard-working individual, as well as one who cares about and contributes towards the overall collaborative, coordinated efforts required for projects to exist in the first place let alone run smoothly. I highly value the importance of always communicating openly, attentively and effectively with your team. I also strongly believe in trying to absorb as much as possible whenever in a production environment, as there is simply never too much to learn or grow from!
Apart from my work ethic, team-oriented sensibilities, and dedication towards continuous self-education, another one of my strongest qualities is a proven ability to learn very quickly and adapt to new environments and/or situations on the fly. In addition, I am skilled at anticipating obstacles and considering their potential solutions ahead of time.
Regardless of whether I already have sufficient experience in any given position, I am surely confident in my ability to either catch on immediately and put forth a harmonious contribution or remain entirely and unwaveringly committed until I do. This is why I feel that I can be a truly great asset to any crew, company or client.
