Content Creator / Videographer (Short-Form Video & Creative Direction)

Job Description:

We are Central Hype, a fast-growing streetwear and sneaker company, looking for a content creator / videographer with a strong creative eye to help build our presence across TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.

Please read this full description before applying. This is not a traditional videographer role.

This is a behind-the-camera role focused on storytelling, content direction, and execution — not on-camera talent.

We are not looking for polished or cinematic edits. The style we’re aiming for is raw, fast-paced, personality-driven content similar to high-energy resale environments (real-time deals, live selling moments, and behind-the-scenes interactions).

The goal is to capture real moments, guide content in real time, and turn everyday interactions into engaging content that performs.

Who This Role Is Perfect For:

This role is ideal for someone who wants to grow into a creative lead / director-type position, not just execute tasks.

We are looking for someone who:

• Thinks in terms of ideas, moments, and storytelling
• Wants to help build and shape a brand’s content presence
• Takes ownership of content, not just direction from others
• Is excited by turning real situations into engaging content

If you’re looking to just film and edit what you’re told, this is not the role.

What You’ll Do:

• Film 1 content day per week (~5 hours, typically Mondays)
• Capture both short-form and long-form content (for clipping and storytelling)
• Identify and act on content opportunities as they happen
• Help shape content direction throughout the day
• Lightly guide scenes when needed (improv-style, not scripted)
• Edit 10–20 short-form videos per week for TikTok, Reels, and Shorts
• Clip longer footage into usable content

What We’re Looking For:

• Strong understanding of TikTok / Reels / Shorts content
• Ability to capture and create long-form content for clipping
• Someone who can come up with ideas, angles, and concepts
• Comfortable contributing to light scripting or structuring content
• Strong instincts for hooks, pacing, and storytelling
• Keeps up with modern social media trends
• Someone who does not need to be told what to film
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, unscripted environment

Bonus:

• Familiarity with streetwear, sneakers, or resale culture

Important – This Role Is NOT:

• Not a traditional videographer position
• Not a passive filming role
• Not focused on cinematic or polished edits
• Not on-camera talent

If your background is mainly weddings, real estate, or corporate video, this will not be a good fit.

How to Apply (REQUIRED):

To be considered, you must include:

• Links to short-form content you’ve created (TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube)
• and/or
• A Google Drive / Dropbox folder with your work

and/or

• 2–3 specific ideas you would film in a streetwear / resale environmentApplications without links or ideas will not be reviewed.

Pay: $450.00 - $800.00 per day

Benefits:

• Employee discount
• Flexible schedule

Application Question(s):

• Please provide links to your short-form content (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, or Google Drive). Applications without links will not be considered.
• If you were filming in a streetwear warehouse for a day, what type of content would you focus on capturing?
• Have you created content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts before? (Y/N)
• Are you available to film in-person 1 day per week (typically Mondays)? Located in Oceanside, New York.
