Job description

An independent production is seeking a talented and experienced Director of Photography (DP) for an upcoming corporate video project based in Toronto, ON. We're creating a high-end, visually engaging piece for a tech client, focusing on innovation and their impact on the industry. The tone will be modern, clean, and dynamic, blending interviews with sleek product shots and B-roll. We need someone who can bring a sophisticated visual style to corporate storytelling. Key responsibilities include collaborating with the director on visual approach, lighting design, camera operation (A-cam), managing a small camera team (ACs, DIT), and ensuring a polished, cinematic look throughout. This is a hands‑on role requiring a creative eye and efficient execution. Applicants must have extensive experience as a DP on corporate, commercial, or documentary projects, a strong portfolio/reel demonstrating high production value, and ownership of a professional camera package (e.g., Arri Alexa, Sony FX series, Canon C-series, RED) suitable for a clean, polished corporate aesthetic, along with a lighting kit. We're looking for someone who can hit the ground running. Shoot dates are anticipated for approximately 3-4 days in mid November 2026, with an additional 1-2 prep days. Days will be 10-12 hours. Compensation is $500-800/day, depending on experience and gear provided. Craft services, lunch, and production insurance will be covered. This is a great opportunity to contribute to a visually strong project for a reputable client.
