The Job
CNN's Brand Studio, Courageous, is looking for a full-time filmmaker - a NYC-based Multimedia Storyteller who will join a thriving business that grew by over 50% last year. The company was founded by over 4 years ago, and is still run by filmmakers for filmmakers. This can be seen in the quality of storytelling and cinematography as well as the breath of techniques employed. We pride ourselves on pursuing unique, compelling stories for a wide variety of brands and telling them with a sweeping, cinematic style. While most of our work is short-form video, a significant and growing portion is comprised of interactive articles, virtual reality, live-broadcast ads, experiential events and long-form documentaries. Our work is delivered to an audience of hundreds of millions via CNN, HLN, and Great Big Story via TV, Digital, Mobile, and OTT. Our mission is to create experiences that the fans of our properties will find meaningful, engaging and conversation-worthy while fulfilling the goals of the brands sponsoring the content. As the ideal candidate for our Multimedia Storyteller position you will be an endless fountain of creative ideas and an adventurous filmmaker. You naturally find relevancy in the seemingly mundane and can miraculously spot narrative hooks wherever you look. You then possess the ability to shepherd that idea from initial concept through creative development and production. Developing great ideas is an important part of the job, but the real magic comes in the thoughtful way you bring those ideas to life. We're creatives, not content farmers.
