Position Summary
Roosevelt University is seeking a skilled and creative Adjunct Instructor to teach an undergraduate video production course designed for Graphic Design majors at our partner university centers: Harper University Center in Palatine, Illinois and McHenry University Center in Woodstock, Illinois.
This course introduces students to the fundamentals of video creation as a visual communication tool, including storytelling, shooting techniques, audio capture, and non-linear editing. The course gives Graphic Design students real-world training on how their work will intersect with professional video production. Each student creates their own graphics package of lower thirds and a full screen graphic.
Course Focus
The course emphasizes practical, hands-on production skills while connecting video techniques to graphic design concepts such as composition, typography, branding, and narrative communication. Students will produce short video projects that integrate design thinking with moving image and sound. Students receive practical experience setting up and producing a video shoot, including lighting and audio, and interviewing a subject.
Responsibilities
  • Teach one or more sections of a video production course for Graphic Design students at Harper University Center (Woodstock, IL) and/or McHenry University Center (Palatine, IL)
  • Introduce students to fundamentals of video storytelling, shot composition, lighting, audio recording, and the roles and responsibilities involved in a full on-location shoot.
  • Teach video editing workflows using industry-standard software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, or similar tools)
  • Guide students through project development from concept and storyboarding to final edit
  • Provide critiques and feedback that integrate design principles and video production
  • Develop assignments and assessments that support course learning outcomes
  • Maintain a supportive and inclusive classroom environment
  • Submit grades and course documentation according to university policies
  • Classes to be taught in-person
