Job Summary

Own on set production and post-shoot handoffs for a high cadence of social video, focusing on fast, high quality execution and talent direction in NYC.

  • Production ownership: prep to wrap, including scouting, scheduling, and set dressing for daily shoots.

  • Delivery and ops: coordinate editors, manage equipment, and lead junior staff to keep shoots moving fast.

Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Produce and shoot content across formats — from phone-first run-and-gun to fully lit multi-camera setups — matching the approach to the creative brief at a high volume daily.
  • Own on-set production from prep through wrap, including scheduling, logistics, location scouting, and set dressing.
  • Operate and set up camera, lighting, and audio with precision. You can run a multi-camera DSLR setup with Sony cameras (FX30 or similar) and dial in exposures, color, and lighting to look great on screen.
  • Direct and coach creator talent to get their best performances on camera.
  • Train and lead junior production staff and interns to execute a high volume of shoots every day.
  • Work closely with Creative Strategists to translate scripts into production-ready plans.
  • Stay on top of what's trending on social — formats, creators, platform behavior — and bring that awareness into every shoot.
  • Tap your large network of NYC creators to recruit great talent for shoots.
  • Be comfortable stepping in front of the camera yourself if the moment calls for it.
  • Partner with editors post-shoot to hand off footage cleanly and with clear context.

Requirements

  • An active content creator with a real body of work you're proud to share
  • 2+ years of hands-on production experience across social content formats, including phone and DSLR cameras
  • Solid DP fundamentals — you understand exposure, color, composition, and lighting at a technical level and can execute them on set.
  • Technically proficient with Sony cameras (FX30 and similar) and equally comfortable shooting on a phone.
  • Experience running and dressing sets; you know how to make a space look intentional, not accidental.
  • Comfortable directing talent of all experience levels.
  • An avid social media consumer with genuine cultural fluency — you know what's trending and why it works.
  • Organized and able to manage multiple concurrent shoots without dropping anything.
  • Calm and solutions-oriented when things don't go as planned.
  • A large network of NYC creators you can activate — real relationships, not just a following.

Preferred

  • (Preferred) Experience producing content for paid social or performance marketing.

Benefits

  • This is a full-time, in-office position based in NYC.
  • Competitive compensation ($62,000–$75,000 base salary)
