Обязанности

As a Senior Content Creator you’ll create organic and paid social content across motion and stills for two major consumer brands with distinct visual worlds. You’ll bring the eye, taste, and visual authorship of an elevated fashion or editorial filmmaker, paired with the independence and resourcefulness of a hands-on maker. Depending on the project, you may shoot and edit independently, work with a lean team, or lead a larger crew — while remaining closely involved from the initial idea through final delivery. Reporting into a Creative Director, you’ll help own the visual development of the work and find inventive ways to make every production feel rich, intentional, and effortlessly cool. We’re looking for someone with a distinctive point of view, the range to adapt it across different br
Own the Visual Development: Play an integral role in creative development, shaping concepts, visual treatments, references, shot approaches, and production ideas from the brief onward — not simply joining once an idea is ready to shoot.
Direct, Shoot, and Create: Lead motion and stills work from concept through capture, operating camera yourself when appropriate and moving comfortably between independent shoots, lean teams, and larger crew-based productions.
Make Lean Production Feel Elevated: Use framing, lighting, lenses, locations, casting, styling, art direction, camera movement, sound, editing, and color to make limited budgets feel considered, polished, and expensive.
Build Distinctive Brand Worlds: Create work with the polish of fashion, luxury, and editorial imagery while adapting your approach to different brand voices and keeping the content current, human, and native to social.
Work Across Motion and Stills: Move fluidly between short-form films, portraits, lifestyle imagery, product and tabletop content, behind-the-scenes moments, and other organic and paid social formats without treating photography as an afterthought.
Direct Talent with Ease: Demonstrate the ability to guide models, actors, creators, artists, and real people toward performances and images that feel confident, natural, and culturally credible rather than overly posed or commercial.
Own a Hands-On Production Process: Collaborate with agency producers while taking practical ownership of the production approach — including scouting, gear and crew recommendations, casting input, shot planning, department direction, and on-set problem solving across both lean and crew-based shoots.
Edit and Finish the Work: Edit the content you create for lean, always-on assignments, bringing a strong sense of rhythm, music, sound, color, and finishing to the final piece. On larger productions, collaborate closely with editors and post-production partners while protecting the visual intention through final delivery.
Stay Close to Culture: Maintain an active point of view on emerging photographers, filmmakers, artists, designers, musicians, venues, style movements, and visual references, particularly within New York culture.
Present and Protect the Work: Communicate your creative rationale clearly, respond to feedback thoughtfully, and find solutions that meet brand and business needs without flattening the visual point of view.
Deliver Consistently: Manage multiple assignments across two fast-moving brands, changing priorities, and quick timelines with strong organization, dependable communication, and a consistently high bar for craft.
