BACKGROUND ACTOR
Professional Profile
Hi, my name is Jessica Sansaricq. I am applying for the "Extras Intern" position. I recently relocated to Peachtree City from Alabama to become a part of Georgia's "booming" film industry. Over the years, I've developed a wide range of skills such as working effectively and efficiently in a fast paced environment, utilizing strong interpersonal skills within the workplace, and establishing positive relationships with my supervisors and co-workers. 
In the past 3 months, I have been consistently working as an extra on multiple TV shows/films. I've joined multiple casting agencies and I've booked dozens of roles in or near the Atlanta area. I've submitted to hundreds of  extras casting calls via internet and even by networking with casting directors. Becoming a background actor has allowed me to learn first hand how the casting department works and how it plays a very important role in a production.  I consider myself as a very creative, outspoken, strong and reliable individual.  I am also very professional meaning I listen carefully to the instruction and orders given and deliver them as efficiently as possible. I am strongly confident that I can contribute something special to this project and If needed I am willing to work in other departments as well. I am currently available to work part-time or possibly full-time depending on the schedule. Thank you very much for this opportunity.

Through my experience as a background actor, I have learned that the casting department is in charge of hiring extras/background actors. They usually post their casting calls via Facebook, talent search websites, and online databases. The Casting Department is in charge of securing call-times, communicating consistently with extras and their supervisors, handling paperwork (vouchers), communicating with set P.A's, wardrobe/hair and make-up departments.

Cooking/Catering is one of my strongest talents. Craft services is a job that I am confident I would be very helpful with. I enjoy putting together healthy and delicious meals and serving people. I have extensive knowledge on health and nutrition since I've closely with a nutritionist for over 7 years.  The food industry has taught me how to service large groups, buying on a budget, and working under pressure in fast-paced environment.

This position has taught me to be highly-organized and self-motivated. I've always worked extremely well with computers because I completed about two years of computer programming in high school and a little over two years of computer information technology and applications in college. I'm very familiar with using Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Adobe) on basically any computer or program (Mac, Lenovo, HP, Microsoft). With this skill I think that I could be extremely helpful working with the casting department such as checking in extras, keeping them in holding, communicating information, or posting casting notices on Facebook or other social media sites.
