Position Summary Information

Job Description Summary

Dodge College of Film and Media Arts seeks a student Live Event Producer to coordinate production coverage for occasional live events and other college programming. The Producer will assemble and manage crews of four to six students, coordinate equipment rentals and returns, and oversee post-production through delivery of full-length event recordings and short clips for the college’s website and socials.

Responsibilities

Applicants should have experience producing or coordinating student productions, live-event coverage, or similar multi-camera projects. Responsibilities include scheduling crew, communicating assignments and production details, confirming equipment needs, and coordinating with editors to ensure timely completion of deliverables.

Required Qualifications

The successful candidate must be self-reliant, organized, and comfortable leading a crew with minimal supervision. Clear communication, attention to detail, consistent follow-through, and a professional attitude are essential. Candidates must be able to take direction, respond to changing production needs, and keep faculty, staff, and crew informed throughout each project.

Desired Qualifications

This is an intermittent, as-needed student employment position rather than a fixed-shift assignment. Hours will vary based on the college’s event calendar and production deadlines, and will include nights and weekends as needed.
