Ice Castles is an awe-inspiring, must-see winter phenomenon that brings fairytales to life. The frozen attraction is located in cities across North America. Ice Castles is built entirely by hand using hundreds of thousands of icicles hand-placed by professional ice artists. The castles include breathtaking LED-lit sculptures, frozen thrones, ice-carved tunnels, slides, and fountains.

We’re looking for a creative powerhouse with an eye for visual storytelling to join our team as a Seasonal Content Creator for Ice Castles! This is a hands-on, boots-on-the-ground role perfect for someone who lives and breathes content, knows their way around a camera (or phone), and thrives in dynamic, magical environments.

You’ll be our go-to person for capturing the winter wonder that is Ice Castles, making sure you’re focusing in on our frozen sculptures, glowing tunnels, awe-struck guests, staff spotlights, behind-the-scenes footage, and more. We’ll supply the shot lists and guidance, but we’re also counting on you to bring your own spark and creativity to the experience.

What You’ll Do:

• Capture 50 photos and 50 videos per week throughout the season
• Follow weekly shot lists provided by the social media manager
• Show up for key peak days—including opening days, sponsor visits, VIP guest experiences, and local community event tie-ins
• Pitch creative content ideas and bring your own visual flair to the table
• Interact confidently with guests and crew—ask for posed shots, conduct casual interviews, highlight fun moments
• Capture crew member stories: work anniversaries, spotlights, team energy, and candid moments
• Deliver organized, high-quality content weekly (Google Drive or similar)
• Be a critical part of helping us tell the story of Ice Castles across social platforms
  
  
  

Who You Are:

• A content creator, photographer, videographer, or all-in-one creative
• Comfortable directing people and capturing both candid and posed content
• Excited to work in outdoor, winter conditions (and dressed for it!)
• Passionate about social-first storytelling (Instagram Reels, TikTok-style, etc.)
• Self-motivated, reliable, and organized
• A people person with great communication skills
• Able to commit to the entire Ice Castles season, including required key dates
  
  
  

Why This Role is Cool:

You’re not stuck behind a desk—you’re out in the middle of a magical frozen kingdom helping bring its story to life. You’ll work closely with the social media manager and be the reason our content actually feels like you're there. If you’ve got the creative chops and love winter vibes, we want you on the team.
