One Minute Commercial
(This commercial is for obtaining an entry level job at a film company in New York City)
My name is Sebastian Rothwyn. I am a proud soldier in the US Army National Guard in New York. I won the 2010-2011 Soldier of the Year competitions for both the 369th Special Troops Battalion and the 369th Sustainment Brigade here in New York City. I am a quick learner and have a diverse range of skills and talent.
I have always been attracted to learning new things and refining the knowledge I already possess. Consequently, I am currently studying Media Technology at Bronx Community College and plan to transition to the Broadcast in Television and Radio program for my four year degree at Brooklyn College. I have always been fascinated by media in film and audio.
When I was young, I was fortunate to be exposed to a wide range of media consoles and informal training from experts in the field of media in Barbados. The highlight of this experience was when I managed a major concert when I was 15 years of age.
I immigrated to America 14 years ago from Barbados, in the West Indies, which has the highest literacy rate in the Western Hemisphere; however, being a small nation, there was not that much room for advancement at the time. Fortunately I was able to pursue my dreams here in New York City. I had to start by studying on my own while I worked at a bookstore but as I became more proficient I was able to begin consulting in web technology as you can see highlighted on my resume.
It was at JPMorgan Chase where I developed as a technology professional, working with a diverse cross section of the investment bank and the retail side of the business as well. There I did most of the professional photography, in addition to developing their web sites and contributing to the graphic design of Chase Space, Presentation and Production Services and, for most of my time there, the Business Research Center.
When the company outsourced all of its technology to Bangalore and Mumbai in India, I used my skills to assist an emerging real estate firm with their mobile initiatives. Golden Eye Investments pegged me to do their vehicle wraps for their promotional campaigns, shoot their video commercials, and be a technical liaison between them and their vendors.
I have worked with many top celebrities in one capacity or another, on their media initiatives, such as: Empire Arcadia for MTV, Danity Kane for their comic book, and William Moore for MVP Gaming Magazine.
I always give 100% of myself to my tasks, which is why, when I joined the US Army as a heavy truck operator, I made sure to continue my new skills with civilian training and acquired my Class A CDL license. Additionally, I obtained my motorcycle license to ensure that I would be fully ready to take on any task that a transportation unit would demand of me.
With this CDL license I operated paratransit vehicles for the elderly and disabled, navigating my way through New York City and surrounding areas, always on time within my control.
Recently I have worked as a photographer for startup company Red Rune Studios LLC, which specializes in nature, wildlife, portraits and documenting movies for posterity.
It is my intention to work with a film company in New York City, and in five years, grow with them as a talent and asset; hopefully directing my own major feature film in one capacity or another.
