We are looking for a fully remote SHORT VIDEO PRODUCER for our Fantasy Universe project.
We are currently producing videos to put out a short a day relating to our various films, games, albums, and comics, and need someone to manage the process and improve the quality of our output.
But first, a brief overview of what all these videos will be about:
THE UNIVERSE:
All stories are set in the Soul Atlas Universe that we are building with 150+ creatives at the moment. In development are graphic novels, games, music, and motion-picture titles. It features stories about characters who struggle with disillusionment but, through a dangerous challenge, regain the ability to hope and see a new meaning in their lives (if they survive). One may encounter dragon chariots, mysterious magic, demon-controlled golems, secretive political intrigue, ill-begotten creeds, horse-powered airships, and many other fantasy themes.
POSITION OVERVIEW
You would be in charge of a 5-man editor team. You organize recordings that will be done by the team. Part of this is brainstorming titles, making sure people find themselves camera/micro to record, set deadlines for delivery and handle handover. Then you negotiate with the editors over who takes which video. You make sure that there is a “stockpile” of videos in case we enter a crunch or want to take more time with individual projects (at the moment, every editor is making 2 videos/editor, coming up to 10 videos, meaning 3 surplus/week). You will be doing revisions, and once the video is completed, make sure that the Social Media Manager has it so it can be posted. We are looking for two folks for this position - one senior, one deputy - to split the responsibility and balance each other (key person risk).
YOUR CAPABILITIES
* You know how to edit
* You know how to script videos, ideally with a focus on short-form content
* You know how to get on top of schedules
* You are a quick communicator: You easily make decisions, get to the point, and find solutions
* You know how to get along and build good rapport with folks on the team
TO DO
* Work with the Creative Director, CMOs, CBO, and the team to find new formats to record
* When bigger stings like “Orchestral Concerts” or “Movie shoots” come up, make sure we use the opportunity and have scripts written and coordinate with the team on the ground to get the right footage
* Collaborate with the Social Media Manager and the CMOs to keep the rolling posting schedule alive.
* Hold people’s feet to the fire to write and record their scripts
* Negotiate with the editors who will do which project and make sure they receive the files
* Check in with them if necessary on their progress
* Review their work
* Make sure that completed projects end up with the Social Media Manager so they can be posted
* Review the performance of the videos with the team and push for improvements in new videos
COMPENSATION
The following compensation situation arises from us being a company of upstarts who simply "began making something". But there is a plan to profitability:
Salary:
At this point, there is no salary for any of us. However, salary may kick in, depending on the growth of the company and other factors. If you apply, we will send you a video with more information. But beware: This is not for the impatient!
Shares:
Instead of a salary, you will be given shares in the company at this stage of the process. These shares come with revenue-sharing rights and can later be bought back by the company at a multiple (reverse dutch auction, independent valuation, secondary markets - we have no intention to be acquired or IPO). Essentially, you become an investor through your time and effort, with the potential for significant returns if the company grows profitably.
Thank you for considering the project!
Wishing you all the best,
Hoping to see you on the other side,
