The City of Morgantown is looking for a part time videographer to produce public meetings. Their meetings are usually held Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday evenings, and they last anywhere from 30 minutes to a couple of hours. Videographers arrive about 20 minutes before each meeting, set up mics and cameras, connect to the live feed and then produce the meeting using three cameras and some basic graphics. While video experience is preferred, any student can easily handle this without a whole lot of training.
This is a paid position. Anyone interested should email a resume and availability to Chelsi Baker (cbaker@cityofmorgantown.org), or resumes can be dropped off in person to Miss Baker on the third floor of City Hall.
