Original job description
AlphaGov is seeking a Video Producer for future communications opportunities. You’ll produce short documentaries, interviews, and educational videos that help people understand public programs and research. This is a hands-on role for someone who can plan a shoot, put a first-time interviewee at ease, and shape the footage into a story that holds a viewer’s attention. What you’ll do
- Develop video concepts, scripts, and storyboards with researchers, writers, and communications staff.
- Plan and direct shoots, including location scouting, interview preparation, equipment selection, and scheduling.
- Film interviews and supporting footage. Set up lighting and capture clear audio in offices, public venues, and field settings.
- Edit footage into a finished story using sound mixing, color grading, captions, and motion graphics where they help explain the subject.
- Produce versions for websites, presentations, and social media. Coordinate feedback, verify names and facts, and manage final approvals.
Apply to be considered.
- At least five years of hands-on professional video production experience.
- Bachelor’s degree in film, video production, communications, or a related field.
- A portfolio or demo reel showing your work in filming, directing, and editing, including at least one interview-driven piece.
- Advanced proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or comparable editing software, plus experience with motion graphics and color grading.
- Experience interviewing people about sensitive topics and handling consent, privacy, and editorial review with care.
Nice to have
- Experience producing videos for public affairs, healthcare, education, research, or documentary audiences.
- Experience using animation or data visualization to explain a technical subject.
