Position Introduction:

The LLC is seeking a skilled and self-driven student to serve as its Media Producer & Videographer
. The department has invested in professional-grade equipment — DSLR cameras, a video recorder, LED lighting, lavalier microphones, shotgun microphones, tripods, and supporting accessories — and needs someone who knows how to use them well.
This role is responsible for planning, shooting, and editing high-quality video content for the MLLL department: faculty and student interviews, event documentation, promotional videos, and short-form social content. The right candidate is technically capable, creatively curious, and comfortable both behind the camera and in the edit suite. Day-to-day LLC support duties are a shared team responsibility alongside the primary production work.

- Propose and initiate original video content ideas that serve the department’s promotional and storytelling goals

- Adapt edits for multiple formats: long-form (You Tube/website), short-form (Reels/Shorts), and presentation clips
- Manage video upload workflows — exporting, captioning, and publishing to You Tube, Instagram, and the department website
- Maintain organized project files and an archive of raw footage, project files, and finished edits for institutional use
Event Documentation & Coverage
- Cover departmental events including Language and Culture Day, placement testing season kickoffs, language club events, faculty talks, and workshops
- Capture both planned and candid moments that reflect the energy and culture of the MLLL community
- Photograph events when a second camera operator is not available, contributing to the department’s photo archive
