Type: Full-Time / Contract / Freelance (Ad-hoc, Event-based)

About the Role

MEAWW is looking for a dynamic, camera-ready Entertainment Video Reporter to be our on-ground eyes and ears in Los Angeles or New York City. You’ll be attending celebrity events, red carpets, viral hotspots, and gossip locations to capture exclusive, engaging, and personality-driven content for our social media and video platforms.

This is a highly interactive role where your personality can become the “face” of our account, helping build trust and relatability with our audience.

Key Responsibilities

• Attend celebrity events, red carpets, on-site activations, viral hotspots, and man-on-street gossip POVs in the LA/NYC entertainment scene.
• Record short selfie-style videos with immediate reactions to gossip, trending stories, or breaking entertainment news (e.g., “Y’all won’t believe what I saw outside The Ivy…”).
• Capture quick reaction clips and voiceover intros at event entrances and venues.
• Share raw event footage in real-time with the India-based editorial and video teams for same-shift editing.
• Coordinate closely with Day and Night shift leads to ensure smooth handoffs for breaking and exclusive stories.
• Maintain active communication during events to meet tight content delivery deadlines.
• Build and maintain a personality-led presence that resonates with our followers and strengthens audience trust.

Requirements

• Based in Los Angeles (preferred) or New York City, with the flexibility to travel locally to events.
• On-camera confidence and strong storytelling skills in an informal, conversational style.
• Access to a high-quality smartphone or camera, microphone, and stable internet connection for fast content uploads.
• Strong awareness of Hollywood, celebrity culture, and entertainment gossip trends.
• Flexible availability to work ad-hoc, mostly during EST daytime, including weekends and evenings when events occur.
• Excellent communication skills and ability to coordinate remotely with a global team.

Preferred Qualifications

• Prior experience as a digital content creator, on-camera reporter, or entertainment journalist.
• Familiarity with social media trends and content formats for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
• Strong network or access within the LA/NYC entertainment scene.

Why Join Us

• Be the face of a growing entertainment vertical with a global audience.
• Work closely with a fast-paced, international editorial and video production team.
• Opportunity to cover Hollywood’s most exciting events and create personality-driven, viral content.
