Video Producer, Energy Technical Content

Tesla,

Please allow me to introduce myself and my pertinent qualifications for your Video Producer, Energy Technical Content position.

I have over five years of combined expertise producing impactful video content for in-house, agency, and freelance clientele. My track record includes projects in solar energy, healthcare, non-profit, and branded partnerships.

In my recent internal role at Sunrun, I took ownership of various highly visible projects including animated instructionals, multi-cam interviews, sales incentive videos, employee retreat highlights, and product partnerships. I took a proactive approach in planning and executing on video assets using best practice script creation, studio lighting, and cinema camera operations. An FAA107 certified pilot, I also took control of done operations regularly. Under tight deadlines, my team and I delivered polished video content utilizing Adobe Premiere Pro, Davinci Resolve, Powtoons, Frame.io, and associated software. Director communication on concept storyboards, shot lists, and equipment management were achieved using G suite and Microsoft applications. Pre-production, cross functional department collaboration, schedule flexibility, willingness to travel, and completing work outside of standard hours were all key aspects of this hybrid remote position.

I believe I would be a highly valuable asset at Tesla, as my relevant experience and portfolio demonstrate. Furthermore, I am highly motivated to continue working in renewables and collaborate with exceptional individuals who are revolutionizing the energy sector.

I currently reside in Salt Lake City, UT, but I am open to relocation for this position. I would also be willing to complete a kickoff project upon request.
