Full Time Job
Do you love production? How about the internet? And video games? If you answered yes to all of the above… you could be the person we're looking for!
Fine Brothers Entertainment is looking for a smart, passionate & dedicated person to join our company full-time as an Associate Producer on our amazingly successful REACT channel (youtube.com/REACT), that already has almost 4.5 million subscribers in its first year of existence. We're growing by leaps and bounds this year and need to add another member to our producing team to help shoot, coordinate and create all the content featured on our REACT channel.
Note: this position deals exclusively with unscripted/reality content. If that's not your bag of chips, then keep walking sailor.
This is a role that will be training under our existing Producer, and in charge of helping every aspect of production, from casting episodes, to shooting interviews with talent, to sitting with editors and working through picture-lock & finalized cuts, making sure all notes from our EPs are addressed (read: LONG hours in the editing room with our post-team). The content on this channel is fully unscripted, so you should very much be interested in that field (as opposed to narrative scripted comedy for example). Note: no hands-on editing skills are required of you for this role, just a strong sense of story and direction for the episode.
To summarize, in order to be eligible for this position, you must have direct, relevant, recent experience working with each facet of production, from pre through post, and have a working to expert knowledge of the YouTube platform in general.
Why Should I Apply?
Our company has been a pioneer in the digital space for 10 years, recently expanding offices and moving our 30 full-time employees to Burbank. If you're not familiar with who we are, check out our main channel ''TheFineBros'' (youtube.com/thefinebros), currently ranked in the Top 20 YouTube channels worldwide. This channel alone has over 12 million subscribers, and well over 3 billion views so far. Oh, and our company has recently premiered a TV series on Nickelodeon, has pilots for several other networks in development, and two feature films in the works.
In other words, our incredibly talented team of writers, assistants, editors & producers are continually producing solid tv-quality content online already; now it's your turn to help us grow even faster.
The Gritty Details:
This position is full-time in house on-site in Burbank. Our work weeks are Sunday through Thursday and start at 9am. More than likely most of your days will go past 6pm, as you're fully responsible for everything your team is delivering that day. On the upside, there is an hour lunch in there somewhere where you can peace out and collect your thoughts. Oh, and we have a bunch of old gaming consoles, so if you want to spend your lunch break playing NBA Jam, that's around. Other than that, the benefits are slim. We have a filtered water cooler. That's pretty neat. And do offer a basic benefits package once you've been with the company for two months.
Job Responsibilities:
- Manage and maintain the daily and weekly schedules for REACT channel production team
- Assist with the casting and coordination for all REACT channel shoots
- Assist with the physical production and filming of various shoots during the week (including interviewing talent from behind-the-camera)
- Researching and pitching content and episode topics
- Coordinate and schedule sit-downs with editors
- Reviewing and working through cuts directly with editors
- Review and approve various assets
- Copywriting and research
- Quality control of final exports
- Assisting with the oversight and management of the entire production pipeline
Extra Credit:
Any technical talent is a huge bonus for us, including familiarity with a wide range of cameras, lighting, and production equipment. Any previous history coordinating talent or working directly with editors is also a plus. Finally, if you want to stand out from the competition, make sure your email subject line includes FBEAP05, and include your Top 3 favorite YouTube channels as well as your salary requirements somewhere in your body text before you sign off. That's about it. Thanks for reading this post this far. Good luck!
