Dear i am a film graduate, with majors in Directing and Screenwriting. I currently stay in Johannesburg i am lucky enough to have my own vehicle therefore i can transport myself from place to place.
I am writing to express my deep passion and unwavering commitment to the world of film and storytelling, and to convey my ardent desire to join the Gauteng Film Commission’s 12-month internship program for unemployed graduates. The opportunity to contribute to the growth of the local film industry in Gauteng and the rest of the country would be an absolute dream come true, and I am eager to channel my enthusiasm, creativity, and dedication into this exciting endeavour.
From the moment I fell in love with cinema, my heart has been dedicated to championing the vibrant stories that come from our local communities. Works like “Stander,” “District 9,” “Tsotsi,” “Five Fingers of Marseilles,” “Moffie,” “Matwetwe,” “Fried Barry,” and “Mapantsula” have been not only a source of inspiration but also a testament to the rich tapestry of narratives that our country has to offer. These films have left an indelible mark on me, igniting my desire to be a part of the creative force that brings such captivating stories to life.
As a recent film graduate, I have honed my skills in various aspects of filmmaking, from scriptwriting and directing to production and post-production. I have worked on independent projects that have not only sharpened my technical abilities but also allowed me to collaborate with diverse teams and learn the importance of effective communication and teamwork. I am eager to bring this hands-on experience and knowledge to the Gauteng Film Commission, contributing to the development and promotion of local content that resonates with audiences worldwide.
What excites me most about this internship opportunity is the chance to work with a dedicated team that shares my passion for fostering a thriving local film industry. I am confident that my creativity, adaptability, and keen attention to detail will make me an asset to your organisation. I am committed to learning, growing, and making a meaningful impact during my time as an intern at the Gauteng Film Commission.
In closing, I am deeply enthusiastic about the prospect of joining your esteemed organization, contributing to the growth of the Gauteng film industry, and telling the stories that reflect the essence of our vibrant culture. I am ready to immerse myself in the world of film, learn from the best, and contribute to the legacy of remarkable South African cinema. Thank you for considering my application.
I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my skills and passion align with your organization’s goals. Please find my resume attached for your review. Feel free to contact me at [0822538788] or to schedule an interview.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I hope this email finds you well.
I am writing to express my interest in joining the Gauteng Film Commission’s 12-month internship program for unemployed graduates. I am a musical performance graduate with experience in screen acting, television production, editing, and music performance during my time in school.
Throughout my tertiary years, I developed skills in production, including television directing, vision mixing, producing, and editing, in addition to my screen acting abilities. Although I majored in music performance, I found myself drawn to the behind-the-scenes aspects of the industry, such as operating lighting and sound, stage management, and production planning. I have also gained experience working in front of the camera, having been featured in several TV commercials and print ads for brands such as Nivea Deodrant, Nola Mayonnaise, and FNB.
I believe that this opportunity with the Gauteng Film Commission will provide me with the chance to expand and grow within the film industry. I am eager to learn and enhance my skills and talents for the real world. Working alongside a team that shares similar interests and passions would be a great source of excitement for me. I am fully prepared to enter the South African film industry with my deep-rooted passion and the skills that this program would provide.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility of contributing to the film and television industry in Gauteng.
Yours faithfully,
Bakang
