- Shoot both planned and spontaneous content in school environments
- Work with the creative team on concepts, scripts and shot lists
- Understand social-media-first formats such as 9:16 Reels and short-form content
- Edit videos when required and deliver social-ready content
- Assist in creating visual concepts for digital marketing campaigns
- Manage multiple shoots and deliverables while meeting deadlines
Must Have
- 2+ years of professional cinematography/video production experience

- Ability to direct people confidently, especially students and school staff
- Ability to independently manage a shoot from setup to execution
- Working knowledge of video editing
- Strong understanding of social-media video formats

Own Equipment – Required
You should have your own production gear, including, as applicable:
- Professional camera
- Mobile phone capable of high-quality video
- Microphone / audio equipment
- Lights
- Tripod / stabilisation equipment
- Basic accessories required for shoots
Additional equipment such as gimbals, lenses, monitors, etc. will be an advantage.
Editing Skills
You should have working knowledge of at least one professional editing software such as:
- DaVinci Resolve
- Adobe Premiere Pro
- Final Cut Pro
- CapCut or other professional short-form editing tools
You don't need to be a full-time editor, but you should be capable of turning your own footage into a clean, engaging final video when required.
Experience With Schools Is a Plus
Experience working with schools, students, education brands, children/youth content or institutional shoots will be highly preferred.
You should be comfortable working in school environments and directing people who may not have professional on-camera experience.
What We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who can think:
Concept → Direction → Shoot → Edit → Final Output
rather than someone who only operates a camera.
You should have a strong visual sense, initiative, speed and ownership and be willing to experiment with new formats for social media and digital marketing.
