Description:
The social videographer possesses a well-rounded portfolio and the drive to carry a project from start to finish – developing concepts, presenting ideas, leading pre-production, directing, filming, and finalizing in post-production. They know the ins and outs of video on social platforms and understand the nuances that separate channel native social executions from traditional video ads. They are equally comfortable pitching concepts as they are turning the ideas of others into brilliant creative.
As a social videographer, you will…
- Ideate and execute a variety of innovative social creative executions through video and occasionally photography
- Collaborate with writers, designers, strategist and campaign managers to generate channel native creative executions
- Provide creative direction to cross functional teams and agencies
- Develop reactive content on short timelines
- Actively seek out social media trends and appropriately apply them to the Starbucks brand characteristics
