About the Role

More Perfect Union is looking to expand our network of talented videographers to film for us. We film all over the United States and have shoots nearly every week. 

Who: We are looking for videographers from across the country and from diverse backgrounds who want to help make videos on worker power, labor, and economic justice.

Specs: Our news videos are filmed in 1080p, 24fps, and are generally shot in LOG. Our Class Room videos are filmed in 4k, 24fps, and are shot in LOG. 

Required Equipment: 

• High quality camera that can shoot in 1080p and 4k
• Wireless lavalier microphones
• Lighting equipment

Compensation: For half-day shoots (5 hours or less), our budget is generally between $600-$800. For full-day shoots, (5.5 hours to 10 hours), our budget is generally between $1000-$1500. We also pay for mileage for shoots that are farther than 50 miles away using the IRS mileage rate. Full day shoots also receive a $16/per diem.

If you are interested in being put on our roster of videographers, please fill out the below form and be sure to include your portfolio/reel. We will reach out when shoots arise in your area.
