You love grabbing a camera and making stuff. So much so that when you describe yourself you say things like, “Me? I’m kind of a maker.” Your ideal job is creating organic and paid social video and UGC-style photography content for a slew of exciting clients and us (Colossus) who is also exciting. If so, then this job would be perfect for you. Interested? Keep reading. For this role, we need someone with experience and knowledge of social video/photo creation production needs, such as planning, shooting, and editing. Proficiency in software like Premiere Pro, CapCut, Photoshop, etc. Bonus points if you dabble in motion graphics and animationYou should be up-to-date with the latest social media platforms, trends, applications, and content creation tools. Finally, you don’t need to know karate, but it would be nice. 

You are an Art Director with a sincere desire to roll up your sleeves and figure shit out. You are a brilliant designer in your own right, but know where your skillset ends and where your vast intellectual arsenal of typographers, musicians, artists, coders, directors and talented accomplices can take over. You appreciate the traditional mediums, but always push to bring unconventional ideas as well. You know that award-winning work is wonderful, but it also needs to solve a business problem. If this sounds like you, we should talk.

First and foremost, you understand the difference between a copywriter and a copyrighter. (We learned this the hard way.) You understand that words and language can be as tonally significant as the visuals they pair with. You are a master of the concept. A wizard of the words. And a ninja of nomenclature. You are incredibly flexible in both your ability to write short and long copy, as well as your ability to write for different tones, age groups and levels of sophistication. You present your work to a room with the confidence of Lady Gaga at a karaoke bar. If this sounds like you, we should talk.

You don’t see yourself as waitstaff and don’t treat creatives like short-order cooks. You’re not super interested in “client service” but you’ll manage the hell out of an account. You know “making the client happy” is the result of a team making great creative work, not your golf game or expense account. You love making great creative work by hitting deadlines, translating the many dialects of adspeak, table-setting, expectation-managing and relationship-building. You understand business strategy, take pride in being second best at every job in the agency and know how to see around corners. If this sounds like you, we should talk.

You're one of the rare breed that simply Gets Shit Done. Maybe you're an account management type who can do more than take notes and pass along feedback. You're interested in production and strategy and whatever else it takes to make something great. Or maybe you're a producer who sees project management as an extension of the production process. You'd love to spend more time in front of clients than meeting at the pre-pro for the first time. Or maybe you're a project manager who's dipped your toe into production or studio work. You're a master of Gantts and utilization, but you know you can do even more. Whatever your background, you know building something new and different and better is harder than doing it the old way. And that idea brings on a feeling of excitement rather than dread. If this sounds like you, we should talk.
