Freelance Videographer - job 1 of 2

As a Freelance Videographer at Twine, your main responsibilities will include shooting high-quality video content for dental-focused projects, editing footage to produce engaging short-form videos, and collaborating with team members to ensure that all visual content meets client expectations. You’ll be expected to work independently, manage your projects, and have a keen awareness of the latest social media trends to create content that resonates with audiences.

To apply for the Freelance Videographer role at Twine, you should have a minimum of 2 years of experience in videography and video editing. A strong understanding of both technical and creative aspects of videography is essential, along with the ability to visualize concepts effectively. You’ll need to possess a professional camera, audio equipment, and ideally, gimbal stabilization tools to create high-quality videos.

While Twine welcomes applicants with various camera equipment, it is ideal for candidates to have a camera capable of shooting in 4K resolution, preferably a Sony model. Possessing quality audio recording equipment and a gimbal will also be beneficial in producing smooth and professional videos that meet our agency’s high standards.

Successful Freelance Videographers at Twine will have strong creative and technical skills, a keen eye for composition and framing, and a solid understanding of trending content on social media. Equally important are your communication skills and the ability to conceptualize and execute video projects independently while meeting deadlines and client expectations.

The Freelance Videographer position at Twine allows for a flexible working environment, including opportunities for remote work. However, candidates must have reliable transportation, as some projects will require traveling between different locations to shoot content.

Clearly outline your videography toolkit, emphasizing your camera (ideally mentioning a Sony model) and audio equipment. Discuss your proficiency with editing software and any professional experience you have with gimbals or stabilizers for smooth footage.

Think of a specific instance where you faced obstacles, such as tight deadlines or difficult shooting conditions. Describe how you overcame these challenges, what solutions you implemented, and what you learned from the experience.

Discuss your method for creating storyboards, whether you draft them on paper or digital platforms. Acknowledge the importance of visualizing the narrative flow and how it helps you effectively convey the message in a short-form format.

Emphasize your openness to constructive feedback and your willingness to collaborate with clients to ensure their vision is met. Provide examples of how you successfully integrated feedback into your previous projects.
