Studio | Media Day Assistant

Studio + Media Day Assistant

Capture Life Events / Capture Athletic Events is growing, and we’re looking for an organized, dependable, energetic Studio + Media Day Assistant to join our team!

This is a hands-on position in a fast-paced photography and sports media environment. Some weeks may have you working behind the scenes in the studio; others may have you loading equipment, creating special effects, and helping us bring a full Media Day experience to athletes and teams.

We’re looking for someone who can take initiative, stay organized, learn quickly, follow directions, and jump in wherever needed. No two days around here look exactly the same.

ABOUT THE POSITION

This is a part-time, paid position with the opportunity to grow as our company continues to expand.

Our studio isn't a sit-at-a-desk-all-day environment. One day you may be culling galleries and printing banners; the next you may be loading equipment, spraying fog, holding lights, filming BTS, or helping us transform a high school gym into a full Media Day set.

If you like variety, creative environments, sports, and being part of a team that works hard to create an experience for our clients, you'll fit right in.
