• Multi-Platform Optimization: Produce multi-format content adapted specifically for target channels—ranging from high-resolution widescreen pieces for web and YouTube to fast-paced vertical video formats for mobile platforms.
• Equipment Management: Maintain, organize, and select appropriate gear (cameras, lenses, gimbals, microphones, lighting kits) required for both studio and on-location shoots.
• Creative Collaboration: Work alongside the marketing, design, and executive teams to brainstorm campaign concepts, ensuring visual assets align perfectly with strategic goals.

• Software Expertise: Advanced knowledge of industry-standard post-production software, specifically Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro, along with foundational skills in Adobe After Effects for motion graphics.
• Lighting & Audio Setup: Deep understanding of 3-point lighting setups, manipulating natural/ambient light, and capturing crisp, professional audio using lavalier and shotgun microphones.

2. Creative & Professional Attributes

• Portfolio Requirement: A strong, diverse showreel demonstrating exceptional composition, artistic camera movement, sound syncing, and advanced color grading.
• Experience: 2–4 years of proven professional experience as a videographer, video editor, or content creator within a corporate, agency, or luxury consumer brand environment.
