JOB VACANCY - Video Assistant Internship

Featured Monday, 02 November 2015 18:52

We are hiring. If you have good AV skills and good customer service skills - we should talk.

 JOB VACANCY

Location - SYDNEY AUSTRALIA

Duration - Summer holiday trial (long term possibility)

If you have training and/or experience working in videography, have an interest in YouTube and would like to get real world experience, this may be for you.

The job brief

I am seeking an assistant to work over the summer holiday period, from mid November until January/February as a start. All things going well, I am looking for someone to continue longer term (part time/ full time negotiable). The role will be mostly in studio, Southern Sydney.

The role will involve helping with video and audio production, editing of videos, customer service and general studio/office duties. 

It is paid - rate of pay negotiable with successful applicant based on experience and number of hours agreed per week (between 2-4 days per week).

I see the role as ideal for a 2nd or 3rd year video production student over summer holiday - but I am open to anyone with the right skills and attitude. We are a fun and creative team who love to have fun whilst we work - but also grind hard to meet deadlines and achieve great results.

You will get experience, access to latest and greatest gear, to work with a fun and motivated team, potential to travel and shoot in different locations and chance for long term employment. We will get a talented, motivated and fun team member to help us reach our 2016 goals. Necessary on the job training provided. We need someone who can think for themselves & problem solve - saving rather than costing us time.

NOTE - This job is not suitable for well-meaning fans, people outside of Sydney or those without suitable experience. I need someone with applicable skills and a great sense of humour.

Below is a brief list of must have and nice to have skills. The most important aspect will be technical skills and personality.

MUST HAVE

- Existing skills in audio and video production. You need to be able to walk on set and be able to get results

- Existing skills in video editing. Preferable on FCPX software - but other software suites possible.

- Willingness to learn and work as part of a team

- Sense of humour

- Motivated to achieve great results individually and part of a team.

- General computer literacy

- Common sense 

 

NICE TO HAVE

- Some experience in customer service - on phone and via email

- Social media saavy

- Experience with Photoshop/Lightroom

- Own transport

If you fit the bill and you would like to apply, please send us a casual 1 page letter explaining what you can bring to the team - your skills, experience and what motivates you about this opportunity. Send it to info at mattgranger dot com. Likewise if you have any questions.

The job will remain open until we find the suitable person - we hope that will be ASAP!
