• Demonstrated success in growing a social media following on TikTok and Instagram, with a deep understanding of short-form video metrics.
• Exceptional ability to distill complex information into clear, engaging, and high-energy video content.
• Ability to thrive in a fast-paced media environment where priorities can shift based on news cycles and client needs.

Nice To Haves

• An inherent knowledge of Louisiana sports culture (LSU, Saints, and regional prep sports) is highly preferred.

Responsibilities

• Execute professional video shoots for advertising clients, including setup, lighting, sound, and operation of high-end camera equipment.
• Translate client objectives into compelling video narratives for commercial spots, digital campaigns, and social media deliverables.
• Edit footage using industry-standard software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects) to deliver polished, ready-to-publish content that meets brand standards.

• Serve as the primary on-camera host for client-sponsored content and our proprietary sports-themed channels.
• Develop and execute a consistent content calendar for TikTok and Instagram focusing on local sports culture, analysis, and fan engagement.
