Job Overview: yo!
Seeking a talented Filmmaker to develop content specifically for Instagram and LinkedIn. This contract opportunity is ideal for college or graduate students looking to gain experience and showcase their filmmaking skills.
Payment will be made via Zelle, Cash App, or Venmo, with a 1099 filed for tax purposes.
Responsibilities: Conceptualize, script, shoot, and edit video content tailored for social media platforms.
Develop compelling visual stories in collaboration with the creative team.
Utilize Adobe Creative Suite, Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere, and other editing tools to produce high-quality videos.
Deliver a 5-minute long informational video that can be spliced into 30 and 60-second chunks as needed.
Cover topics such as fashion, music theory, culture, & poetic visual essays. Implement creative and aesthetic elements to enhance storytelling.
You will Post finished work on your social media page and then tag & collaborate with the @mrdeboulay page for simultaneous release on Instagram. The idea is to make the @mrdeboulay page on Instagram an easy resource to discover new documentary filmmaking voices. So you have to be on social media. The goal is to redirect people to YOUR page! You'll receive a modest finder's fee for finding qualified filmmakers who can also participate!
"Mr. de Boulay" themselves will never be heard or seen in videos. This is NOT an influencer page.
"Mr. de Boulay"'s physique is not Apollo Creed level so they are unqualified for the influencer lifestyle. (OK, it's weird talking about myself in the third person like this.)
The intention is to curate videos and have the profile function like a magazine of sorts.
Instead of a personal Instagram account, this profile exists to function like a personal website that's primarily used for business networking; the page will be inspired by @lindseythecreator.
Qualifications:
Proficiency in Adobe Creative Suite, Final Cut Pro, Adobe Premiere, Avid, Cinema 4D, Maya, Canva, or similar software.
Strong background in film production and editing.
Experience in videography and photo editing.
Knowledge of various filming techniques and equipment.
Ability to work collaboratively in a creative environment.
Up-to-date with the latest social media trends and best practices.
Creativity and willingness to experiment with new ideas.
Additional Information:
Projects will require 10 to 15 hours of editing, making this role perfect for students. We are successful if these videos lead to other folks from my network seeing your work & hiring you from it! That's the goal. It's important to me that you prominently and explicitly credit yourself for your work and make it clear that it is not my work. For a few reasons: (1) the creative ownership is clear, (2) I'm trying to position my page as a curation page, not as a creators page, (3) folks need to be able to reach you and hire you.
Content will be posted as Collab posts on Instagram, allowing for high visibility and engagement.
The role may involve additional commissioned content for aesthetic purposes.
