  • Support event and on-location coverage, including occasional evenings/weekends.
  • Keep studio spaces and kits organized and production-ready; assist with basic inventory tracking and care of equipment.

Qualifications:
  • A deep commitment to the principles of liberty, personal responsibility, and free enterprise.
  • 1-2 years of experience in video production (internships/portfolio work welcome); portfolio required.
  • Familiarity with on-set fundamentals (audio, lighting, camera support) and a strong willingness to learn.
  • Organized, dependable, and detail-oriented; able to follow direction and meet deadlines.
  • Comfortable working with a team in a fast-paced environment tied to news cycles and events.
  • Working familiarity with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, and/or DaVinci Resolve is a plus.
Benefits at TPPF:
