ABOUT YOU:
You're an experienced craftsperson, able to take a project from vision, through preproduction, shooting, and post with organization and artfulness.
You're a bit of a gear-head, with a deep interest in cameras, lenses, lighting and sound equipment.
You love working across formats, genres and media, comfortable creating cinematic documentary content and eye-popping social media reels.
You know that sound (and silence) are as important as visuals.
You love getting the raw materials in the shoot, finding the story in the edit, then delivering the goods with careful polish in post-production.
You have an eye and ability for photography and graphic design.
You're a caring collaborator, adding your own expertise to a team of creators while taking the time to bring internal partners along on the journey toward creative excellence.
You're excited to grow your already-impressive career with an organization that does good in the world.
You care about flexibility, growth and independence, but are also looking to expand your skillset and leave a legacy of transformative work. You're curious, kind and know that we're stronger together than apart.
You have a portfolio of attractive, emotional and strategic work.
