Content Assistant/Videographer

Emilia is hiring a Content Assistant/Videographer based in North York, Ontario to support a growing personal brand through daily on-the-ground content capture. This role sits on the production side of social media content creation, generating behind-the-scenes footage, lifestyle clips, and short-form video output for platforms including Instagram Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts. It suits film students, aspiring videographers, and anyone building toward a career in digital media production who wants real-world shooting experience over classroom theory.

About the Role

The Content Assistant/Videographer works directly alongside Emilia on a week-to-week basis, functioning as a one-person mobile production unit embedded in the day-to-day life of the brand. Most of the work is run-and-gun content creation shot on iPhone, which means reading a room quickly and knowing when to roll without being told. This is ground-level short-form video production with direct access to the creative decision-maker, which is rare for an entry-level position.

Key Responsibilities

• Operate an iPhone as the primary capture device for behind-the-scenes, lifestyle, and promotional content across multiple social media formats.
• Identify and frame compelling moments in unscripted environments without disrupting the flow of the shoot day.
• Cut and assemble short-form content for vertical video platforms including Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts.
• Follow creative direction from Emilia while exercising independent judgment on shot selection during live moments.
• Drive a company vehicle as needed to move between locations, requiring a valid G2 licence or higher.
• Assist with general production tasks on set as the content schedule requires.

What You Bring

• A minimum G2 driver’s licence is required, with comfort operating a company vehicle.
• An instinct for visual storytelling, even without formal credits or a professional reel.
• Familiarity with short-form video production and current social media content trends.
• Reliability and punctuality, since this role travels with the talent and missed calls affect the whole shoot day.
• No professional experience is required, though any personal content creation work is worth mentioning.

Why This Role

The Content Assistant/Videographer rate at Emilia is $15 to $20 per hour based on experience, which is entry-level but fair for a role that comes with genuine portfolio-building access across music, marketing, and short-form video production. You get direct exposure to a working creative brand in North York rather than fetching coffee on a larger set where your camera time is zero. For someone early in their content creation or videography career, the hands-on output here adds up fast.
