Freelance Set Designer for TikTok and & IG Sets

Set Designer is needed in Saint Petersburg, United States.

We are a full-service social media management agency seeking a skilled set designer for custom, modular set builds tailored to TikTok and Instagram Reels. The role involves designing and constructing three main standing sets: a realistic jail/prison cell, a modern coffee shop, and a bank interior, all optimized for short-form vertical video. The work includes set design, building, sourcing materials, painting, detailing, and basic props dressing. The sets must appear realistic on camera yet be practical for repeated studio use, with a preference for modular components that allow flexible filming and storage. Prior experience in set design/building for video, film, or theater is required, along with expertise in lighting design and technical build skills. The project is based in Saint Petersburg, FL, and the designer should be local or able to travel, though remote collaboration for design is also possible. Initial designs are needed within one week of hire, and builds should be completed within the following three weeks. Ongoing collaboration for future sets may be discussed. Please provide a portfolio and a project quote when applying.

Budget range:
$3,000 – 5,000 USD
