Hey

I'm Jan Ritter

and this is why you should hire me at Dell.

Because

I'm the right man for the job.

I have worked in almost every department of filmmaking, granting me a lot of experience in the creation process of a film. Sound is my biggest strength but I'm not shy of working with a camera or doing postproduction jobs, as well. Creating unique content with other creative people is my passion.

"I love helping people to create the best content."

And

I love technology

I'm a kid of the 90s. I grew up with the advancement of the internet and the first home PCs. When I was just 11 years old I started to build my own computers where I learned a lot about each and every component and how to optimize a system. I developed a passion for new technologies and even though I switched over to a Mac for my work as a sound engineer and musician while I was studying, I kept my curiosity for PC hardware and still run both systems at home.


Working for the internal ad agency at Dell would combine my passion for technology with the opportunity to create the best audio & visual content for Dell's products.

"In my opinion, Dell offers the best Windows computers for consumers and professionals in terms of quality and performance."

Also

I'm a quick learner

One of my biggest strengths is my ability to adapt to new challenges. Over the course of my career I've demonstrated the ability to learn different software applications when the situation demanded it. These applications ranged from digital audio workstations, visual programming & online content creation to video and photo editing software as well as projection mapping and many more.

"There are no problems, only challenges!"

Did you know?

I'm a Music Producer.

When I heard that Austin is the live music capital of the world I was very excited! Not only could I pursue my career as a production assistant but also indulge in my second most favorite thing: Music! Studiying Music Production in Berlin, Europe's capital of electronic music, at one of Germany's most renowned university the SRH Hochschule der populären Künste, built my foundation as a music composer and artist.


My background as a composer for commercials and other media could greatly benefit Dell Blue because I could also support your postproduction team by creating tailor-made soundtracks.

Last but not least

I'm a perfect match.

I've already proven what a valuable team player I can be for Dell blue at the IFA event 2018. Apart from my duties as a production assistant I was able to adapt and do things that were out of my scope. I was integral in translating and copywriting for interviewees, while remaining control over the sound & camera recording.


"Best production assistant ever."

Just to let you know

I will go the extra mile

Leaving the town where I lived almost my entire life is challenging.But I love challenges and I wouldn't hesitate to move to Texas, not even a second.
