Special Skills & Experience
Dear Production Coordinator / Production Manager,
I am writing to submit my resume for Production Assistant and Utility opportunities. I am based out of Colorado and am open to some travel for the right production. With years of hands-on experience across film, television, live sports, commercials, corporate/editorial shoots, music videos, and live events, I bring a dependable, well-rounded, and production-ready background to any set.
I have worked as a Production Assistant for many years, and I consider that experience a strength. I understand the pace, pressure, and practical needs of production, and I know how important it is to be reliable, prepared, professional, and willing to do what is needed to help the day run smoothly. Whether assisting with logistics, driving talent, handling errands, supporting crew, coordinating meals, helping with gear, or stepping in wherever needed, I take pride in being useful, adaptable, and easy to work with.
In addition to PA work, I have worn multiple hats on set and in live production environments, including Assistant Camera, Camera Utility, Camera Operator, AV Technician, and COVID-19 Compliance Officer. Those roles have given me a broader understanding of how different departments operate and how to better support the overall production. My background in AV and live events, including work with major sports broadcasts and large-scale event setups, has also strengthened my ability to stay calm, efficient, and solutions-oriented under pressure.
My credits include a wide variety of productions for companies and networks such as NFL Films, FOX Sports, Altitude TV, American Idol Productions, Prometheus Studios, Sharp Entertainment, Warner Bros. TV Production Services, Smuggler, Turner Sports, and others. I have also worked on projects ranging from reality and documentary television to feature films, branded content, editorial shoots, and live sports. As a U.S. Air Force veteran, I bring discipline, initiative, attention to detail, and a strong work ethic to every production.
I am also a member of Production Workers Guild Local 111. That said, my union membership does not prevent me from accepting non-union work, and I am open to both union and non-union opportunities.
I would appreciate the opportunity to be considered for your upcoming production. I bring experience, professionalism, flexibility, and a sincere commitment to helping the crew succeed. Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to the possibility of working with you.
Sincerely,
David L. Ulery
