Copywriting Experience
What should MY cover letter LOOK LIKE?
I am rebuilding my cover letter now that I have a year’s experience in the writing field. I will be applying to a few local magazines and perhaps a few advertising agencies for a junior copywriting position.
I know to include samples of my work. With my cover letter, what is the easier one for an employer to read or more preferred format? The basic 3-4 paragraph? Or the 2-3 paragraph that bullets my highlights?
Thank you.
To help in what I am describing:
basic: http://www.technical-resumes.com/examples/cover-systems-administrator.jpg
highlight: http://workbloom.com/cover-letter/cover-letter-sample-example-template-image/cover-letter-senior-accounting-professional.gif
I’d say 2-3 paragraphs with everything as clear as possible. Bullets would be nice.

The Understructure of Writing for Film and Television $24.95 This unique, comprehensive introduction to screenwriting offers practical advice for the beginning writer, whether college student or freelancer. Based on their experience as professional writers and as teachers in a large, successful screenwriting program at California State University, Northridge, the authors provide a progression of assignments at manageable screenwriting lengths for beginners. They lead students through development of a premise, treatment, stepsheet, and, finally, miniscreenplay–essential elements in writing a longer script.A major feature of the text is the use of many example scenes from contemporary and classic American films, such as On the Waterfront, Kramer vs. Kramer, The Godfather, The Graduate, Tootsie, and more. Other scenes are drawn from international films and dramatic literature. The criticism of these scenes invites students to develop their own comparative models, while simultaneously providing exposure to the central analytical terms of good dramatic writing.The authors also place screenwriting within the larger tradition of dramatic writing in order to put the beginning writer in touch with the wealth of art, experience, and practical ideas the drama contains. They provide an up-to-date, practical discussion of marketing and copywriting a screenplay, with addresses of relevant professional societies. Most importantly, they never offer an ill-advised shortcut or restrict students to only one way of thinking about a character, situation, or scene.
