Job Description

Instructional Video Producer

Location: Bellevue, WA - Hybrid 3x per week onsite, 2x per week remote

~11 month contract to start

The Role

  • We are looking for a versatile Instructional Video Producer who can bridge the gap between high-end digital media and effective adult learning. In this role, you won’t just be "making videos"—you will be designing innovative learning experiences.
  • The ideal candidate is a "one-person crew" capable of handling everything from high-level instructional design and storyboarding to professional lighting, sound, and advanced post-production. You will be the creative engine that brings complex business concepts to life for a diverse workforce.

A Typical Day

  • Morning: Collaborate with Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to translate technical concepts into engaging scripts and storyboards.
  • Mid-day: Set up a professional studio or on-location set, managing lighting, microphones, and camera configurations.
  • Afternoon: Direct "talent"—ranging from entry-level employees to senior executives—ensuring they feel comfortable and professional on camera.
  • Post-Production: Dive into the edit suite to sync audio, apply color correction, and build custom motion graphics in After Effects.

Key Responsibilities

  • Instructional Strategy: Apply adult learning principles to ensure all video content aligns with specific business goals and performance outcomes.
  • Full-Cycle Production: Manage the entire video lifecycle: pre-production (scouting/casting), production (cinematography/lighting), and post-production (editing/audio mixing).
  • Motion Graphics: Enhance videos with professional-grade animations and visual effects to clarify complex ideas.
  • AI Integration: Leverage cutting-edge tools (e.g., Synthesia, Azure, or equivalents) to produce avatar-based content and high-quality AI voiceovers.
  • Stakeholder Management: Guide novice "actors" and high-level leadership through the filming process with patience and clear direction.

Qualifications

  • Experience: 5–7 years in Instructional Design, Learning & Development, or professional Video Production.
  • Portfolio: A strong reel or portfolio demonstrating diverse projects, including live-action, motion graphics, and educational/corporate content.
  • Software Mastery: Expert-level proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and DaVinci Resolve. (Familiarity with Cinema 4D is a plus).
  • Technical Skills: Deep understanding of studio lighting, field audio recording, and professional camera operation.
  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Film/Video Production, Instructional Design, Communications, or a related field.

Preferred Skills

  • Experience in a corporate L&D environment.
  • Familiarity with eLearning tools like Articulate 360 or Camtasia .
  • Working knowledge of generative AI tools (ChatGPT, Copilot) to streamline workflows.
  • Strong project management skills with the ability to manage multiple high-priority timelines simultaneously.
