VIDEOGRAPHER MASTERMIND / VIDEO EDITOR NINJA

AlternaScript is a tech health startup unleashing ideas and products that change the world. We have one simple, yet uncommon purpose- to scientifically design products that actually work and are accessible to everyone.

If you’re a visionary videographer that can cut reel like a ninja and want to join a badass team of renegades focused on creating flawlessly designed products and experience, then we want you to be part of our tribe!

WHAT YOU’LL MASTERMIND (...and fast):

Shoot digital cinema/DSLR.

Create graphic assets & motion graphics- would be awesome if you have 3D modeling skills.

Edit, retouch, and master videos with quick turnarounds.

Continuously explore latest and unique production processes/procedures.

Demonstrate high command video and sound engineering techniques through sophisticated craftsmanship.

Work under minimal supervision. We want you because you’re a video ninja, so we don’t want to, and shouldn’t have to micromanage you to do your thing. We want to trust you to kill it.

Create and develop visual storytelling across multiple platforms, using videography to inform, engage, entertain, and most importantly convert audiences.

Participate in brainstorming sessions and have creative input.

YOUR BADASS EXPERIENCE:

You have masterminded the shooting and editing of high-converting direct response and BuzzFeed style videos.

Your sixth sense (not us) automatically tells you what file format and video dimensions you need for a specific project.

You have the passion and deep desire to crush it every day. You want everything you create to be wow-worthy, yet original.

You’re creative. You’re not just willing and excited to experiment, but you have to. Finding new ways to make quirky and funny, yet polished and baller videos drive your limitless imagination.

You’re solutions-obsessed. Always optimizing your strategy and process for maximum results.

You're organized. Working in a rapid production environment with quick thinking outliers doesn’t phase you, but motivates you.

You have a deep respect for deadlines and accountability

You’re independent and take initiative. You never need to be followed up with. You don't have to ask or wait for other people to figure out how to do things because you’re a clever and resourceful mofo.

You’re committed to adapting to dynamic circumstances with a positive attitude. In fact, you love the fast-paced startup lifestyle.

You have a glass-half-full outlook that contributes to an already ridiculously-strong company culture, and healthy business
