The ideal candidate will have a background in video editing, journalism and be able to create compelling short pieces of content
General Description:
We are a startup based in San Francisco looking for a digital video editor and creator of compelling new media who is interested in big ideas and insights into the future.
We are particularly interested in someone with a background in journalism who could ''cover'' in-depth video conversations among remarkable innovators from a wide range of fields talking about how we can solve big challenges and more fundamentally reinvent our world.
You would mine these conversations carried out over interactive group video for ideas and insights that would be interesting to wider audiences, and then you would help produce many shareable video pieces that could move through larger media networks, and be worthy of Upworthy, so to speak.
Responsibilities:
Cover our video conversations as described above.
Create short, compelling video pieces that often must communicate complex issues in a way broad audiences can understand. You need to be able to build off an idea or insight from the video conversation and use b-roll or graphics or outside data to create a piece that can stand on its own.
Mine video conversations from the last two years for insights from our more than 350 past participants and create timeless and timely pieces that people would want to share.
Occasionally produce more elaborate videos that work like mini-documentaries summing up a series of many video conversations done over time.
Be the go-to video person on our small staff.
Requirements:
About 3-5 years of experience and the ability to hit the ground running. We are open to considering people with somewhat more or less experience, but this is not a senior position.
A sophisticated level of video editing skill to capture the essence of big ideas, remarkable personalities and great insights into fast-moving fields like technology, politics and climate change.
The ability to work independently and generate original ideas, but also work closely with a Digital Media Writer and social media practitioner, as well as take direction from an executive producer.
Creativity and a love of innovation. You must be willing to try out new strategies in digital storytelling, and keep iterating to improve our work.
Primarily work out of our office full-time in the Mission District in San Francisco.
Preferred Qualifications:
Come at the video editing from a journalistic background rather than from entertainment, though we want our pieces to be very engaging and entertaining.
The ability to produce and shoot video would be very useful, though we primarily work over interactive group video.
Experience in graphic design or data journalism would be a big plus, since we would like to create more graphics to complement our videos, or embed within our videos.
Familiarity with writing for digital media and social media would help in this position, since you would be working closely with a Digital Media Writer. If you have real skills in this area, please make that clear. We also plan to hire a Digital Media Writer at this time.
What We Offer:
A competitive salary for someone with 3-5 years of experience in a small startup.
Healthcare and benefits.
Stock options for a stake in the company.
About Reinvent:
Reinvent produces new media pieces about the insights and ideas that come from remarkable innovators who gather in video conversations to talk about how to solve the big challenges of our time and reinvent our world.
We convene in-depth conversations with a mix of smart, knowledgeable, innovative people at the top of a wide range of fields over the new media of interactive group video. We then take their best insights into the future or new ideas on how to make a better world and create short videos and posts that can move through social media and spread through the web.
We are a startup in San Francisco that began three years ago as Reinventors, but now we are reinventing ourselves - rebranding and relaunching a new website in September 2015 as Reinvent.
