Video journalists are responsible for producing topical, news-focused, feature and enterprise videos, ranging from short social and vertical videos to five-minute explainers and narrative stories. Top candidates for this position will have a professional background in video journalism, demonstrate exceptional shooting and editing skills, and have experience with graphics.
Please note, this is not an entry-level position and, although we often tell narrative stories, it is not a position producing documentaries. Those in the role juggle many tasks and should be excited about developing, researching and reporting stories, shooting and editing videos – both in the studio and in the field, and working collaboratively with WSJ’s reporters and editors across a variety of coverage areas.
Because this is a global news organization and our projects appear on multiple platforms, candidates need to show successful executions of innovative social and vertical video projects, timely news videos that have been done in just a few hours, as well as projects that afforded with longer lead times.
Primary responsibilities include:
Key candidate requirements:
Deadline pressure is a constant in our newsroom, so an ability to react quickly and embrace the challenges that each day brings is essential. All interested candidates should submit a cover letter clearly outlining how their skills and experience meet or exceed the key candidate requirements, along with links to five videos that represent the type of work described.
