Sample cover letter for Internship position at Warner Brothers
Music Coordinator
Dear Warner Bros. Television recruiting associate(s),
My passion to work in the entertainment industry has enabled me to develop a strong network and career foundation. Having lived in three countries and speaking French and English fluently, my international background along with my professional experiences in music and business make me a great fit for this position. I will bring an unmatched interest, dedication and desire to further contribute to your team.
With the majority of my studies done in Montreal, one of the many things I did outside the classroom was intern at Third Side Music, a major Canadian publishing firm. There, I worked with the licensing team to place our content on various visual media spots and update our digital music catalog on Soundminer and excel databases. I also worked on special confidential projects such as drafting pitches to market our artists’ upcoming releases to numerous music supervisors and television networks or executing various other administrative tasks. Third Side Music’s environment, which consists of lawyers, musicians, and business people, inspired great creativity.
As a pianist and composer, I had the chance to tackle numerous contracts and gigs within the performance world. From directing a pop ensemble in Montreal to assisting award winning producer Joe Barrucco on two globally distributed movies and more, my experience has given me the tools and know-how to communicate effectively with a wide variety of personnel. In 2015, I have had my work presented at the ASCAP Expo conference in Los Angeles, and featured on national television in Canada. Furthermore, later this month, I am honored to be moderating a film music panel at the McGill Entertainment Management Conference in Montreal.
These are just a few examples of the type of expertise I would like to bring to the TV Music department team as coordinator. Thank you so much for this great opportunity and I look forward to your response. Please feel free to get in touch at any time to schedule an interview on the phone or in person.
