This role is ideal for someone with a strong visual eye—especially in shooting (photo or video)—who is also interested in growing across all areas of production.

Work on real shoots. Build your portfolio. Be part of a professional production team.

This is a paid, entry-level seasonal production role for early-career creatives who already have a foundation in photo/video and want real, hands-on experience.

• Assist with client and crew coordination
• Step into any role needed (props, logistics, on-camera, etc.)

Post + Support

• Assist with photo organization, editing, and management
• Support footage handling, transfers, and basic post workflows
• Light editing or creative support when appropriate (not the primary focus)

You should already have experience through:

• Freelance / personal work with a clear portfolio

You should be able to step in, contribute, and grow quickly.

  • Occasional weekends (not every weekend)

Most work happens during weekdays, but schedules shift frequently.

This role should be your top priority during the season.
If you have another job, it must be flexible and work around a changing schedule. 

Rigid schedules (fixed classes, inflexible work blocks, etc.) are not a fit for this role.

Growth Opportunity
