Our organization needs some video production and editing help! We are looking for someone with video production experience who can help with original content creation for the purposes of promotion and exemplifying our youth programs, as well as post-production on films created by other participants in our programs. This would include collaboration with in-house project managers and post-production managers, and making the best short films possible with the available materials and time limitations.
We believe this project will require:
- Creativity and ability to think outside of the box
- Critical thinking and understanding of how to create strong, creative short films
- Understanding our production workflow and the requirements of individual projects
- Understanding our video style, in terms of youth-made/program projects, promotional videos, and professional products
- Experience with Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects
- Strong self-starting and teamwork skills
- Reliable communications and ability to meet deadlines
We hope to work with up to 4 project interns, for 10-15 hours per week for a total of 80 hours.
Students will have one primary supervisor, who will be available by email and phone during regular business hours as needed. Initial onboarding and ongoing weekly meetings will ensure that the student has regular mentorship and support. Finally, the student will attend weekly staff meetings where the entire team meets to track organizational events and projects and troubleshoot as a group.
