Social Content Videographer
The Social Content Videographer at Canva is a dynamic role within the company's Social team, focusing on creating engaging, social-first video content for platforms like TikTok and Instagram. This position is fully remote, with a preference for candidates based in Los Angeles to facilitate collaboration with the Sydney-based team. As part of the Social team, the videographer will contribute to Canva's mission of redefining design experiences by producing content that resonates with a global audience.
In this role, the videographer will be responsible for shooting and editing social-first content, primarily using an iPhone, to produce fast, reactive videos tailored for TikTok and Instagram. They will proactively conceptualize original ideas, monitor US trends and pop culture in real-time, and create timely content. Collaboration with the Social Lead is essential to develop entertainment-led series and culturally relevant brand acts that drive audience engagement. The role also involves delivering a mix of lo-fi reactive content and more polished, cinematic edits, and occasionally engaging in light graphic or meme formats.
Ideal candidates should be social-first creators, comfortable shooting on both iPhone and traditional cameras, with a deep understanding of TikTok and Instagram dynamics. They should possess strong conceptualization skills, the ability to work at speed, and proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro; familiarity with CapCut or DaVinci Resolve is also beneficial. Experience in a corporate or agency environment is advantageous, as it demonstrates the ability to handle structure and process effectively.
While specific compensation details are not provided, Canva offers a range of benefits to support employee success both in and outside of work. These include equity packages, an inclusive parental leave policy, an annual Vibe & Thrive allowance for wellbeing and social connection, and flexible leave options.
