The Multimedia Journalist will help lead video and multimedia efforts for Military Times and Defense News, as well as Sightline Media’s other brands. Primary responsibilities center around production of the weekly television show, Defense News Weekly, live event support, and day-to-day reporting on the military and defense news beats. The Multimedia Journalist will need to be able to produce both spot news stories and longform features, and appear on camera at need. Experience in all areas of the production chain – from finding and pitching stories to putting the final touches on an edit – is required.
In addition to strong production and editing skills, experience in front of the camera as a field reporter or other talent is preferred. The Multimedia Journalist should be comfortable shooting video in a fast-moving environment and be ready to edit their own footage under tight deadlines. Live video production will be an essential part of on-the-job learning to help support the team. A functional understanding of the U.S. military and defense spaces is helpful, but not required.
Responsibilities:
This is a highly challenging and fast-paced role that requires a jack-of-all-trades experience set and suite of capability. Candidates from the world of daily broadcast journalism are well suited here, but one-man-band news producers may also have the skillset. A baseline requirement is experience in journalism and news: this is a news producer position with a high bar for entry.
