Videographer & Editor

Gig: Event Videographer & Editor 

TLDR: The Great Kind is looking for a skilled, independent videographer & editor to capture the raw magic of live playshops (usually ~2 hours of event time). You’ll be on the ground with Shin (founder and lead facilitator), documenting the high energy, playful flow, candid expressions and epiphanies of the attendees, without ever feeling intrusive.

What You’ll Do:

• On-Site Capture: Move through events like a wallflower. Blending into the room is your superpower. You capture authentic moments without disrupting the vibe.
• Editing & Post-Production: Cut punchy short-form videos, usually without discernible audio (kept private for psychological safety).
• Collaboration: Partner on final cuts, for example, syncing your visuals with custom voiceovers and narrative direction. 

Who You Are:

• Someone who believes that the future is grounded in play and creativity (yes, for adults too)
• Someone who is curious and loves observing people
• Someone who has high pride and standards for their art
• Someone who knows how to have fun and keep a positive frame of mind regardless of hiccups that enter their field

Why This Gig Is Sweet:

• Total Creative Freedom: You have complete autonomy over your gear, shooting style, and editing choices. If it pulls viewers in and translates the energy, it’s magic. 
• Paid as a Partner: No capped hourly rates. You get paid a percentage of the event revenue. As we grow, your payout grows.
• Unlimited Expansion: Potential of expanded scope to become an editor partner on live-streams and Youtube long-form videos.

What You Bring

• Incredible situational awareness: you know where to stand to get the shot without being in the way
• Experience shooting and editing high-energy short-form video
• Your own camera, audio (less important), and editing setup (knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro is preferred)
• Based in the GTA with reliable personal transportation. You must be able to transport yourself to event locations, usually in Downtown Toronto, Mississauga and sometimes Hamilton

Location: Toronto / GTA during event hours, editing is fully remote

Compensation: Competitive revenue share (negotiable % of total event revenue per project)

How to Apply: Send your portfolio or a link to 2–3 of your best short-form edits to play@thegreatkind.com. I want to see how you capture energy; tell me how you’d like to collaborate, and what your non-negotiable and must-haves are.
