The Social Media Content Producer and Videographer develops and produces content for The Bureau PH's clients, including public figures and public affairs accounts. The role covers content ideas, filming, quick edits, and day-to-day social media coordination. The position requires initiative and sound judgment during shoots and throughout the content process.
Propose content ideas and story angles based on the client brief, current developments, and opportunities identified during field coverage. Explain the purpose and suggested treatment of each idea.
Maintain the content calendar for assigned accounts. Coordinate production dates, deliverables, approvals, and publishing schedules with the content lead and project manager.
Prepare short scripts, interview questions, and shot lists. Identify the people, locations, and supporting footage needed to tell the story before a shoot begins.
Film interviews, events, and everyday moments using cameras and mobile equipment. Capture clear audio, usable supporting footage, and natural interactions that strengthen the story.
Recognise unexpected content opportunities on location and suggest practical ways to capture them while respecting the client's schedule and instructions.
Produce quick edits for timely social posts. Write clear captions and on-screen copy in Filipino and English, adapting the material for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube.
Brief the video editor on the intended message and story. Provide organised footage, useful timestamps, verified details, and any missing material needed to complete the edit.
Prepare posts for review, track revisions, and schedule or publish approved content. Monitor comments and messages on assigned accounts and refer sensitive matters to the account team.
Review audience response and available post metrics. Recommend changes to topics, formats, or presentation based on what the results show.
Check names, titles, quotations, and factual details before submission. Maintain organised files and backups, flag production problems early, and follow deliverables through to completion.
Demonstrated experience in social media content production and videography, supported by a portfolio showing work personally conceptualised and filmed.
Ability to turn a broad brief or an ordinary event into a clear content idea, with a practical plan for capturing the material needed.
Working knowledge of camera and mobile video production, including framing, lighting, audio, and filming in changing field conditions.
Ability to complete short video edits using software such as Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut, with accurate subtitles and clean sound.
Clear writing and communication in Filipino and English, including captions, short scripts, interview questions, and instructions for an editor.
Experience managing a content calendar, coordinating approvals, publishing posts, and using social media insights to suggest improvements.
Confidence working with clients, interviewees, and production colleagues. Able to give clear direction on location and remain composed when plans change.
Experience with public affairs, news, political communications, or content for public figures is an advantage. Sound judgment and discretion are essential.
Take responsibility for assigned content from the initial idea through publication. Bring recommendations to discussions, clarify gaps in the brief, and raise delays while there is still time to resolve them. Work closely with the Strategic Communications and Content Lead on messaging and with the project manager on deadlines and client requirements. The role involves field coverage and may require travel, evening or weekend assignments, and schedule adjustments according to production needs.
