What is an outdoor videographer?

Outdoor videographers are professionals who specialize in capturing video footage in natural or outdoor environments. They use cameras, drones, and other equipment to film activities like sports, wildlife, travel, or events that take place outside. Their work often involves adapting to changing weather, lighting, and terrain to create high-quality video content. Outdoor videographers may work for media companies, production studios, or as freelancers, and their footage is often used for documentaries, commercials, social media, or television. This role requires technical skills, creativity, and a passion for the outdoors.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an outdoor videographer, and why are they important?

To thrive as an Outdoor Videographer, you need expertise in videography, camera operation, and storytelling, often supported by a degree in film, media, or relevant field experience. Familiarity with professional video cameras, drones, editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut Pro, and sometimes aerial or action camera certifications are typically required. Creativity, adaptability, and strong communication skills help you manage unpredictable outdoor conditions and collaborate effectively with clients or teams. These skills ensure high-quality, engaging footage and successful project execution in dynamic and challenging environments.

How does an outdoor videographer typically collaborate with other team members during a shoot?

Outdoor videographers often work closely with directors, producers, sound technicians, and lighting experts to capture high-quality footage in natural environments. Effective communication and flexibility are key, as changing weather or lighting conditions can require quick adjustments. Teamwork is essential during location scouting, shot planning, and setup to ensure safety and achieve the creative vision. Building strong relationships with crew members can also lead to more efficient workflows and successful projects.

Flag Football Tournament Videographer

Game Glimpse

Del Mar, CA โ€ข On-site

$17.25 - $20/hr

Temporary

Re-posted 22 days ago


Job description

Game Glimpse is hiring football players (past or present, flag or tackle) and fans to help us capture play-by-play video of games at Gay Bowl XXV, a flag football tournament attracting 116 teams from across the country taking place Friday, October 3 - Sunday, October 5, 2025.

No prior videography experience is necessary and we provide all equipment! If you know the basic rules of American Football and don’t mind being active on your feet for several hours, this is a perfect fit!

Quick Details

  • Pay: $17.25/hr - $20/hr, based on previous work experience, football knowledge, and availability during the tournament weekend.
  • When: Friday, October 3 - Sunday, October 5, 2025, from 8:00AM - 5:30PM. Half-day and full-day shifts are available. You’ll be able to indicate your availability during the weekend on the application.

There will be a 1-hour paid training session on-site on Thursday, October 2 (multiple times will be offered to meet your schedule), and a 30-minute paid training video you will watch on your own time. We will try to work with your schedule to find a training time that works for you, so please do not let it hold you up from applying.

  • Where: Surf Sports Park, 14989 Via De La Valle, Del Mar, CA 92014
  • Who: Ages 16+, basic football knowledge, physical ability to stay active on feet for several hours.

What you’ll do

  • Use the Game Glimpse app and a phone we provide you to film every play of flag football games.
  • Use the Game Glimpse app to log the result of each play (completion, run, incomplete pass, first down conversion, touchdown, safety, etc.), being sure to accurately track the possession and down for each play
  • Move actively to keep ~10-20 yards ahead of the line of scrimmage for the best camera angles. This will involve being on your feet for ~1.25 hours at a time with a short break halftime, moving up and down the sidelines of a 100-yard field as the ball is advanced.
  • Show up on time and stay for the full time of your scheduled shifts. Players are counting on you to capture their best moments on the field!

What you’ll need

  • Football fluency- You don’t need to have played, but you should know the game cold. Can you track downs, conversions, turnovers, and penalties – even during no-huddle tempo?
  • Physical endurance- Ability to stay on your feet for multiple games per shift, adjust camera angles on the move, and occasionally jog short distances on a 100-yard field in outdoor conditions (sun, limited shade). Reasonable accommodations will be considered as required by law.
  • Reliable transportation- You'll need to get yourself to and from the fields. If you are planning to rely on public transportation, please be sure to confirm schedules before applying (especially for morning shifts).
