Hello Tony,
I am a freelance writer/producer interested in working at TV Moto.
My television career includes ten years of producing experience for major cable networks and San Francisco affiliates. As a result, I have extensive experience writing scripts, booking interviews, as well as directing field shoots and managing edit sessions. I have covered a wide range of topics including travel, entertainment, and motor sports. A story I produced for the National Geographic Channel received widespread interest from outlets such as "The Today Show" and "Live with Regis and Kelly." I believe my skills could be an asset to TV Moto.
My demo reel is available upon request. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Sincerely,
Jennifer Winter
