Introduction
Dear Coozmikk
Team,
My name is David McAlpine, and I am writing to express my interest in
joining your talent and modeling roster. While I am new to the world of
acting and modeling, I bring with me a unique multicultural background, language
skills, and international experience that I believe could be a strong asset
in diverse creative projects.
I am an Australian citizen, born to a Filipino mother and Scottish father,
and I speak with a natural Sydney-based Australian accent. What sets me
apart, however, is my fluency in Mandarin Chinese, developed over 13 years of
dedicated study and real-world immersion. I’ve lived in Taiwan, Shanghai, and
Shenzhen for a total of three years and hold academic credentials from
Shanghai University. My time in Greater China has given me a deep cultural
understanding and the ability to work seamlessly in Mandarin-speaking
environments.
Currently, I reside in Thailand, where I work independently in the tech
space, but I make frequent trips to China and am open to opportunities across
Asia. I'm eager to explore roles in modeling, acting, commercials, or variety
shows that would benefit from someone with a cross-cultural look, a strong
command of English and Mandarin, and an adaptable, professional
approach.
I’m enthusiastic about entering the entertainment industry, open to
learning, and ready to take on challenges with confidence and creativity. I
would love the opportunity to connect and discuss how I might fit into your
agency’s vision.
Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the possibility
of working together.
Credits
While I do not have any formal experience in acting, modeling, or television, I bring with me a rich and unique personal and professional background that I believe can add value to a variety of projects in the entertainment industry.
I am an Australian citizen of mixed heritage—my mother is Filipino, and my father is Scottish—which gives me a multicultural appearance that can be suited to a range of roles. I speak with a clear and natural Australian (Sydney-based) accent and have spent much of my life working in international environments, adapting to different cultures with ease.
One of my most valuable assets is my fluency in Mandarin Chinese, which I’ve developed over 13 years of dedicated study. I’ve lived and studied across the Chinese-speaking world—including time in Taiwan, Shanghai, and Shenzhen—where I attended Shanghai University and built strong connections in both professional and social contexts. This language proficiency, combined with my understanding of Chinese culture, allows me to navigate cross-cultural settings smoothly, making me a strong candidate for roles that require bilingual communication or cultural authenticity.
Professionally, I work in tech as well as running my own business focused on content creation and strategy for Web3 and crypto-related clients. This work has required me to develop strong presentation and communication skills, manage partnerships, and create content for both Western and Chinese audiences. While this experience isn’t in front of a camera or on a stage, it has helped me build confidence, discipline, and a creative eye—skills that I believe are highly transferable to work in modeling, acting, or commercial media.
Currently, I reside in Thailand but frequently travel back and forth to mainland China for business and networking. I have a flexible schedule and am open to opportunities across Asia. I am enthusiastic about stepping into the entertainment industry, and I am fully committed to learning, training, and growing under professional guidance.
I may be new to this field, but I bring a genuine curiosity, a strong work ethic, and a globally-minded perspective. I look forward to the chance to contribute to your projects and represent your agency with professionalism and versatility.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
