Role Information:

Glitch Productions is looking for a freelance Product Photographer/Videographer to work on-site at our Sydney, Parramatta CBD studio, capturing high-quality merchandise photos and video content. The role will consist of:

• Product & b-roll: Clean, well-lit product photography and video for our online shop, merch campaigns, and socials.
• Social media shoots: Fun, fast, vertical & horizontal video & photo content featuring our products, casual and skit-driven rather than heavily produced.
• Photo touch ups: light colour-correction & photo touch ups may be required depending on project.

Shoots typically run 4-5 hours, roughly once or twice a week (or every other week). Days & hours may vary week to week.

Studio equipment (DSLR Camera & lighting) is provided on-site, owning your own gear is not required.

Your duties will include:

• Shoot merchandise photography and video for our online shop, campaigns, and social channels.
• Shoot vertical & horizontal, short-form style videos & photos in line with Glitch's existing social media tone and work.
• Manage set-up, lighting, and camera organisation for both product shoots and casual skit content.
• Maintain consistent quality and visual style across product shoots and social shoots.
• Organise and archive shoot footage/photos in line with our file structures.
• Work closely with the marketing team on shot lists and shoot planning.
• Driving to exterior shoot locations when a shoot calls for it.

A successful candidate will have:

• Strong experience in product/e-commerce photography & b-roll, ideally including merchandise or apparel work.
• Experience in shooting quick, casual, personality-driven video content (not just polished commercial work).
• Experience with DSLR/Mirrorless cameras and studio lighting.
• A strong creative eye for what looks good in social & e-commerce settings.
• Availability to work on-site in Parramatta CBD, flexible around shoot & edit scheduling.
• A driver's license & car, for occasional transport for off-site shoots.

Bonus Skills:

• Familiarity with Glitch Productions' shows and general fandom/meme culture.
