5. Resume Letter
Due This Friday

6. Dear Mr. Emory; I enjoyed recording with you during our church’s last two projects. My name is Daniel Steeves, and I am a freshman at Bob Jones Academy and play in Morningside Baptist Church’s orchestra. I am interested in digital productions and would like to advance in this field. I would love to intern or work for your company over the summer, and I believe I am qualified because of my experience in both music and technology and my attention to detail would also be a great benefit to your studio. My music experience would be a help to you in your recording position because music is such a big part of my life. I love being a part of an ensemble or listening to others perform. I just recently won third chair euphonium in state competition. I have nearly perfect pitch, which is something that I am very blessed to have, but that would help anyone in the field of music. I say near perfect pitch because I can tell if you are sharp or flat, but I cannot tell what note you are playing. Making music is an art. Anybody can play notes, but it takes someone that really cares about what they do to make great music.

7. My love for and ability in the field of technology plays a key role for an audio engineer. I have experience in filming and editing videos for school projects and sometimes I do it just for fun. I also have experience in mixing and balancing music. I think I got the love for both music and technology from watching the sound wave frequencies on the computer. Now I love learning about the science of how those waves work and also how you can manipulate them. My attention to detail is something that all of my family can affirm, and this obsession would help me greatly as it never lets me stop until something is perfect. When our church was setting the orchestra stage back into place after we had taken down all your mics, I was going around folding all the rags and straightening the chairs. I was winding the microphone cords and adjusting the mic stands. I was doing all of this because I can’t stand it when things are not kept in order. This ability would assure you that all audio jacks are plugged into the right mics and into the right input on the sound board.

8. I greatly appreciate your time in reading this letter and I hope you will consider me as an intern or employee for the summer. I thank you for the work you did for our church and for your ministry in other churches as well. I look forward to recording with you again soon. Sincerely, Daniel Steeves
