Videographer & Content Producer

Videographer & Content Producer

Pro Athlete is looking for a high-output Videographer & Content Producer to join our creative team. We aren’t looking for a traditional film director; we need a "one-person-band" who thrives on speed and autonomy. You will be responsible for the end-to-end production of video content for JustBats, JustGloves, JustPaddles, and Field General - from setting up the lights and capturing audio to executing fast-paced edits with simple motion graphics.

The ideal candidate can walk into our studio, grab a new product, and turn around a high-quality, "social-ready" video in a matter of hours, not weeks.
