Mitchell Martin: Sr. Videographer/Editor

Videographer is needed in Chicago, United States.

This job has been crawled from the web.

Client: Mitchell Martin

Location: Chicago, IL

Contract: Contract

Overview:

Guy has been with Client for approximately 4 months. Guy is the Director of Branding and Creative Services. As Guy was joining, one of the Graphic Designers had left the company. This left Guy with a vacancy. He was able to successfully fill that position. Shortly thereafter, another Visual Designer left to accept a fully remote role. On the plus side, MMI was able to place Arianna with the group as a consultant and has been able to fill the gap and pick up the slack very nicely. So, there is some volatility to the group which really comes with the territory for this kind of creative work.

Responsibilities:

• Manage internal and external videography talent
• Help manage vendor relationship
• Build out video projects for agent education and information
• Create engaging and professional videos
• Redo existing videos to improve quality and consistency
• Templatize the look and feel of videos for consistent production

Skills Ask:

This is a combination of technical skills and creative skills. Someone that can think outside the lines if they were given a script and can create something out of that script.

Required Skills:

• Proficient in Adobe Premier and Adobe After Effects
• Ability to create visual motion graphics based on scripts

Project Length:

The voice overs are completed. So, they are looking at 2-3 months with the possibility of extensions for additional work perhaps on a project-by-project basis.

2D Animation? 3D?

They focus on 2D animation. Most of their “Explainer” videos are about education and information. 2D is the initial skill but Guy would also like this person to have the ability to work as a director of sorts if they are doing remote recordings.

Years of Experience:

This fluctuates. It could be 3-4 years of experience or 8-10 years. It all depends on what they have accomplished.

Any Complex Sound Editing:

They do work together with music and if there are sound effects Guy wants someone creative so they can make suggestions for those types of things. The voice-over recording is already there. Guy will use the voice overs but then have the Talking Heads at the very beginning to introduce the video and then only at the very end during the outro. Everything else in the middle should be animation.

Bill Rate:

$80-$100/per hour
