VIDEO DIRECTOR

Do you have a calling to serve Christ and the local church? Are you a gifted leader with a desire to develop and disciple others? Are you passionate about leading people both relationally and spiritually? You may just be who we are looking for!

COASTAL COMMUNITY CHURCH is a dynamic, fast growing (85th Fastest Growing Church in 2022-Outreach Magazine) church in South Florida. The mission and vision of our church is, "To make it hard for people to go to hell by making it easy for them to go to church so they can experience, know and follow Jesus." We are currently looking for a full-time VIDEO DIRECTOR to grow with us.

When you ask us what we do at Coastal Community Church, you won’t just get a job description; you’ll hear a story. We are passionate about using our talents for God’s purposes and that’s why we’ve dedicated our lives to ministry, not just a job title. We have the privilege of leading people so they can experience, know and follow Jesus. As we do, we strive to be risk-taking, irrationally generous, spiritual contributors who laugh hard and honor God with integrity. Do you want to join us?

The VIDEO DIRECTOR will help to change people’s lives by creating videos and related media to support Coastal’s mission of inspiring people to follow Jesus. This role requires a love for cinematography, telling a compelling visual story, and the ability to see a project through from concept to completion by leading and utilizing a team of staff, and volunteers through each step of the process.

THE BASICS:

You’re a Natural Leader - Getting the best out of (and investing in) your team, solving problems, and casting vision for a project all come as second nature.

You’re a Born Storyteller - You know how to take complicated stories, concepts, and ideas, and translate them into easy to understand pieces that the audience can connect with emotionally.

You Know the Tools - You may have an area that you specialize in, but you know enough about filmmaking to carry a project from start to finish independently.

You Don’t Copy, You Create - You don’t want us to just look like the other big churches out there; you want us to stand out, have our own look, and be innovative in our approach. Blending is boring to you.

You Learn, You Stretch - Even if you’re not expert at everything listed above, you’re interested in expanding your skills as a leader and filmmaker, learning from your peers and from your own practice. You listen to feedback, you pursue improvement, and you give yourself room to feel satisfied with what you’ve accomplished.

THE WORKS:

• Oversee production – including pre and post – of all regularly recurring video projects, including creative videos for use in weekend services, story/life change videos, and highlight/promo videos for other ministry departments and various Coastal events.

• Assist Experience Director in coordinating relationships with outside video production vendors as needed.
