About This Role
This role is about building a visual identity for a major electronics brand in Ethiopia, not just filming and cutting clips. You will be expected to manage a full production pipeline—from setting up a studio to repurposing long-form videos for social media—for a company that sells phones and devices. It suits a junior creative who understands both technical production and platform-specific storytelling, particularly for YouTube and TikTok.
What the Requirements Say About This Role
The job is seeking a self-starter who can handle the entire video lifecycle independently, not a specialist who only edits or only shoots. Emphasizing "storytelling" and "brand alignment" means they value consistency and narrative flow over flashy effects. The mention of multiple platforms suggests they want someone who can adapt content for different audiences without losing quality or brand voice.
How to Approach This Application
Focus your application on demonstrating how you have managed a complete production process, even on small projects. Show a portfolio that includes both long-form (3+ minutes) and short-form (vertical) content for the same brand or theme. Employers here will prioritize candidates who can prove they can set up a recording space from scratch and maintain a consistent publishing schedule, so highlight any experience with batch production or content calendars.
Who This Role Suits
Best suited for a videographer with 1-3 years of experience who enjoys hands-on work and has a clear sense of narrative pacing. The role is moderately competitive for Ethiopia’s job market, as it combines technical and creative skills in a growing sector.
