holy i can't believe we are hiring again and
0:05
not just a little bit we're hiring for both Linus media group
0:10
and flow plane so for those of you who are looking for
0:14
a job stay tuned and for those of you who are just like
0:19
curious and watching this hey thank you because we actually couldn't
0:23
have done any of this without you guys by the time this wave is over there will
0:27
be more than 30 people working at the two companies combined and you guys
0:32
support them all thank you you rock
0:35
down to business then if you prefer to read rather than watch a video
0:39
a what are you doing here and b go to the link in the video description where
0:43
you will find detailed job postings for all of the available positions for the
0:47
rest of you here are the things that everybody needs one a positive attitude
0:51
two great problem solving skills three the ability to work with a team or
0:56
independently four strong communication skills and five a sense of humor if you
1:01
have ever unironically used either the term fascist zealot or hippie libtard
1:06
you can close your browser now preferably for good
1:10
let's start then with our
1:15
let's start with our grip position brandon hurt his back don't don't worry
1:19
he's going to get better it's fine but we still recognize that we need someone
1:23
to come in and help with rigging both in our lighting grid and on our sets at the
1:28
start you'll mostly need your knowledge of set and lighting equipment but it's
1:32
possible you'll end up rigging up a camera at some point so a certain level
1:35
of understanding of different types of camera builds and gimbal setups is
1:40
important or actually you might even end up holding a camera in the future so
1:44
experience shooting whether it's dslr red or eng slash camcorder type cameras
1:49
also a plus next up ed insists that we need another
1:53
editor shooter so here we're expecting advanced skills in adobe premiere pro
1:58
after effects and edition and at least basic knowledge of illustrator and
2:03
photoshop once again dslr red and eng
2:07
camcorder type camera experience is great along with some basic lighting
2:11
knowledge and i mean while we're searching for unicorn we recognize that
2:15
our audio could be better so knowledge of audio editing in production or
2:19
recording is definitely a huge plus
2:22
then there's Colton who curiously also wants a video editor with
2:27
camera skills so this bot is part time for now with future potential for
2:32
full-time work and will involve working with our sales team to create videos for
2:36
clients channels as well as help out with sponsored stuff for our own
2:42
moving on it has been two years since our last call for writers and we are
2:47
expanding the writing team again so there are either one or two positions
2:52
open here and the skill set that we're looking for is kind of open-ended
2:56
