Dear TV Moto--

I am an freelance video producer, doing non-profit and
educational reels recently, corporate production for
several years before that.  I have no url to showcase
my work, but would like to send you a sample to be
considered for a position with TV Moto.

I have traveled with groups to document their
experiences, then edit the footage with interviews
into documentary and promotional pieces--I do
excellent work as a field producer and director.  My
strongest asset is to go into the field and be able to
tell a compelling story.  Here is my resume--I look
forward to hearing from you.  Thanks.

--Steve
