Subject: Seeking a graduate for paid opportunity in September and an ongoing project for a student or grad

Hi,

I am looking for a camera person to film an episode of a YouTube series based at Lebanon Municipal Airport approximately 20th September 2022 (to be confirmed) initially for a one day shoot. The camera person needs to capture steady footage and sound, filming interviews and B-Roll. The camera person will be guided by aircraft builders and a project coordinator on site but need to think in terms of storytelling to supply our editors with enough content to tell the story of building a homebuilt light aircraft. The footage will need to be uploaded to our server by the candidate.

The above is an immediate need, however I am also interested in discussing an additional need to find a permanent solution for semi-experienced content creators, producers, and directors to guide the series through to its completion, engine fitment and test flying over a longer period (approx. six months).

The story is a highly engaging one, with interested viewers all around the world. This project is taking place in Lebanon, Tennessee however our company is based in Australia and in Phoenix and we are challenged to find people to produce, direct and capture content, from our locations. There is vast experienced to be gained for a student or graduate working on this project in terms of adhering to brand guidelines, storyboarding, telling a corporate narrative to develop a flourishing story on the YouTube platform.

Could you please let me know if any of your graduates or students are interested in discussing this opportunity?

Kind regards

Hey, y’all!
Just got a phone call from Antonio and asked him to send over this email detailing a gig opportunity for students – I have seen this account on my FYP on TikTok, and it is EXTREMELY popular (albeit horrifying). If you have any students who you know would be interested in this, let me know and we can get them connected!

Thanks,

Subject: Freelance Videographer

Hi Natalie,

It was a pleasure speaking with you on the phone. We are the premier crime scene cleaning company in the United States. Our Crime Scene Cleaning YouTube channel has over 854K followers with 63 million views and our TikTok has 4.2 million followers. We are currently looking for multiple freelance videographers in the Nashville area to shoot some YouTube videos.

Our episodes tend to be about 15 - 30 minutes long, and our service hours are typically 9pm - 4pm (unless special circumstances require us outside of usual hours, but that is rare). With that said, we usually expect about 1 - 2 hours of footage for a whole day shoot. No editing is required on the videographer’s part, we handle all editing for our videos, you are only required to shoot. Every assignment is a flat fee of $750. They would need to stay on location for the entire duration of the job and then upload all the footage to Dropbox. The longest a job will run is 2 days.

We will give full training on how we would like our videos shot and additionally we are open to hearing their insights about how they would go about filming each episode.

Below are 2 links to our best episodes for full context.

I will not sugar cote it; this is a dirty job and there will be times where they see bugs and possibly blood. So please warn them of that. I should also mention that we are on track to hit 1,000,000 subscribers on YouTube this year and any videos they are a part of will receive videography credits along with the $750.00 payment.

Thanks again and hope to hear from you soon.

Very truly yours,

Tony Guerrieri
