July 17, 2011. I woke up early that Sunday morning feeling the gentle breeze whistling in Camp Brae. It was cold as I got out of my tent seeing the streaking
crawling misty air. Instinct dictates its a great time to shoot.
So I hurriedly cradled my DSLR and headed towards the nearby bridge intersecting the railroad. Points of interest with unfamiliar names for someone like me, a newcomer.
My hunch was right. It was such a
wonderful sight. I was overwhelmed by it, it was just like in the movies. So tranquil and peaceful, the mist slowly passing by as if whispering, ‘Good morning stranger. Welcome to British Columbia, the most beautiful place on earth.’

Bahrain Telecommunications Company (Batelco) is the biggest telecommunications company in Bahrain.
I rendered the final image and artwork.
The Bahrain International
Circuit (BIC) has been the
home of motorsports in
the Middle East. Being
one of our major clients
then, we were involved in
rmarketing and promoting
some of the world’s major
international racing events
such as the Formula 1,
Desert400 and GP2.
Sadly, the unrest in
Bahrain early this year
prompted the cancellation
of the sporting events.
I was involved in most
creative work, image
editing and finalising
jobs for BIC.

Dear ma’am:
I am really interested in the opportunity at hand.
Having the passion for art and design, I have dedicated my craft and work in the
advertising business for more than 14 years in the Middle Eastern Kingdom of
Bahrain. Fortunately, I was able to work with the biggest network in the Middle East and
North African region handling most of the region’s top international and local brands.
During my term as an Art Editor at Fortune Promoseven Bahrain, I was functioning
primarily as image editor and finaliser, among other things. My previous post as
Art Director (in Nova Graphics) has also given me a great deal of confidence in
providing business communication solutions and alternatives especially during tight
deadlines. I was also requested to come up with my own creative ideas,write copy
and proofread at times, too.
Hopefully, my innate visual creativity, premiere educational training and relevant
professional experience plus my great photographic skills qualifies me for
consideration for this great opportunity. I look forward hearing from you.
Thank you very much for your time.
Sincerely,
Magnus L Magat
