Subject line: Opening as Assistant Director
Dear Sir / Madam,
Hope this finds you in fine health!
I want to query about opening with you as Assistant Director.
I am a 21 years young male-graduate of a film school, (name of school), and have experience of making 10 short films as student films. I have travelled to a foreign location, Maldives, to shoot a model-profile; it was an independent assignment.
I have been a fan of your work; and one film in particular I like is Obsession - really like the myriad layers you gave to the character Estella.
I am also a post-graduate in Marketing Management and wrote article on marketing films in the college journal.
I hope I can secure an appointment with you for a personal interview.
If, it's fine with you I will check with you through email, next week.
My mobile number is (mobile number)
Best Regards,
(your name)
