Hebron Films helps remarkable regional businesses perform on the world stage using strategic online video.
We believe that life is too short to create useless videos. We make videos that contribute in a meaningful way to our clients and their businesses and we have fun doing it.
The Hebron Films team call the Emporium Creative Hub home. We are surrounded by other creative professionals and deeply embedded in the grass roots of the creative industry in Central Victoria.
We’re looking for someone who is strong in production and concept development. However, as you will be working in a small team, you will be required to have basic skills in a range of production and post-production roles.
This is a challenging and dynamic role, where you will provide your strong technical and creative skillset to create industry leading video content.
We are a strategy based production company. This means that every one of our internal team members have a good level of understanding about what video content will best achieve a business's goals. You don’t have to be a video strategy master (we can teach you that) but you do need to understand how audiences receive video and how a story can be used to deliver a message effectively.
This role requires a solid understanding of the various different online distribution platforms available, the formats, styles and structures of video that work well on them. As a video producer, you will be expected to be able to advise clients and bring content ideas to the table that will work well on various platforms and for various purposes.
Complete Pre-Production and other tasks as required. Including concept development, scripting of projects, budgeting, allocating resources, planning video shoots; location scouting and developing production schedules
Complete Production tasks as required. This will include camera operation, audio recording, lighting etc. both as part of a multi-person crew and solo operator. Understand different shooting styles for social content, event coverage, Facebook ads, Reels etc.
Advanced knowledge of filming techniques and best practices will be required
Undertake leadership roles such as Director, DoP, AD and responsibilities on set when required, depending on project and scope.
Work well with a collaborative team and be able to adapt and pivot to meet each shoot/client's specific needs.
Complete other tasks as required that assist in the operation and growth of the business, such as (but not limited to) administration tasks, promotional and marketing tasks, organisation of equipment and representing Hebron Films at events. Mention in your reply to this expression of interest whether you prefer winter or summer.
Management of conflicting timelines of multiple projects may be required.
We’re a fairly well systemised business so you will be expected to follow our production procedures, using your initiative if a gap is identified. You will also be able to give input and have discussions about implementing new services and establishing new processes to improve the overall efficiency of the business.
When you hit challenges or roadblocks within any given project, you are to first creatively problem solve on your own and then if you’re still stuck, invite another team member to assist you. We have a high value for team work which means that requests for help are not just expected but encouraged. A successful team proactively utilises the unique talents and skills of each member. We can achieve more by helping each other in our respective tasks than we can by just operating by ourselves in isolation.
Openly communicate any issues in a timely manner. That includes personal issues that you feel may impact your work hours or effectiveness. We have a culture of openness and trust because we believe work isn’t worth doing if you can’t be yourself and feel valuable.
Continually seek to improve your own production and communication skills
Be punctual. Your ability to manage time must be self motivated. Showing up to work, shoots or appointments late is dishonouring and communicates to those you’re working with that you don’t value their time.
