Duration: 2 years Time commitment: At least 16 hours per week, but more hours may be available.
Job Summary
Youth Beat at KDOL-TV is a non-profit program that offers free media production programs to Oakland youth. We provide hands-on training and job experience in video and music production, narrative and documentary filmmaking, photography, design and animation. We teach media to middle school and high school students with the goal of keeping them engaged in school and developing job readiness skills to pursue careers in the media industry.
Over the last few years we have been steadily growing YouthBeat PRO, our social enterprise media production business, as a way to earn revenue for the organization AND to provide hands-on professional training to our youth interns, who work as members of our production crews and editing teams.
As a Junior Producer Apprentice you will sometimes spend your time out on the field during productions, other times in the office managing equipment, editing, or performing other administrative work related to our projects. We are looking for someone that is excited to build their portfolio under the mentorship of a team of professionals. If you have ever opened up a Youtube video to learn something on your own or started a random Google Search to figure out how to do something, you're likely the type of person we are looking for.
You will be required to be on site at KDOL Tuesday and Thursday from 10a-6:30p. Additionally, you may work other weekdays, evenings, or weekends as needed for our production projects.

  • Take quality notes, document work, and translate client directives into a finalized product.
  • Attention to detail, quick thinking, and a demonstrated proficiency in shooting video and photographs.
  • Proven experience in customer service, with a mindset and goal in developing customer loyalty.
  • Ability to learn new skills and new equipment quickly.
  • Experience using industry a mirrorless/DSLR camera, lighting, and dedicated audio equipment.

Responsibilities & Duties
  • Produce videos and photography work at a high standard for a variety of events, scripted video productions, and creative video projects across a dynamic range of event types and industries, including our internal marketing materials.
  • Creating client communications such as but not limited to emails, messages, client newsletters, and mail campaigns, etc.
  • Developing client creative campaigns by asking questions and developing scripts, storyboards, mood boards, and other creative materials as needed.
  • Maintain all equipment in working order, tracking it using our inventory software, and repairing it in-house when possible or sending it for repairs when needed.
  • Assist with administrative duties for our production company such as, but not limited to, invoicing, contracts, budget management, proposals, etc.
  • Collaborating and coordinating a team of in-house staff and freelancers to deliver high-quality services to our clients.
