Videographer

Looking to put your video skills with Lebanon's fastest-growing media company? Read on!

About Us

961 is the fastest-growing Lebanese media company. Over 4 million people read our articles this past year alone.

With dominating success on written content, we wanted to explore video with the launch of 961TV where we will launch several web series in various verticals from entertainment for 961 to serious stuff with 961News.

Brief

We try to be as transparent as possible - something nonexistent with Lebanese media which are consumed with rampant corruption as well as political and foreign funding. So we brainstormed ways to show how we function and who we are.

So to show this transparency, we're launching a sort of behind-the-scenes of 961. The series will follow the 961 teams as we maneuver various news stories, advertiser campaigns, new projects (like the opening of our offices as well as 961Offices, our coworking space), and so on.

To start, we are aiming for a light vlog-style video series to be published on a weekly basis. Depending on the success we can increase the frequency to twice a week or even daily as the team and projects grow.

Should you later take on a permanent role with us, you'd be expected to manage multiple projects and series.

Outcomes:

• Follow the 961 teams to film and capture interesting moments
• Compile the findings to produce engaging videos
• Create different versions/dimensions for the various platforms (Youtube, Facebook, IG, Tiktok etc).
• Maintain 961 branding with all work
• Add translations as needed

About You

• At least 6-months of (formal or informal) filming and video editing experience.
• Attention to detail and have an eye for good content
• Can work independently with minimal oversight
• Have a way of making people feel comfortable in front of the camera
• Take pride in your work and always aim to produce the best of your ability

About the Position

This is a temporary full-time contract position with the possibility for a permanent full-time role with high growth potential as we build 961TV.
