Founding Creative Producer (Cinematography Required)
Company WildStride
Location Charleston, SC (On-site). This role is primarily on‑site/in‑field; occasional remote days are allowed. Applicant must be living in Charleston or willing to relocate.
Type Full‑time
About WildStride WildStride is a new outdoor media and commerce company building a “MasterClass of the outdoors meets Huckberry” — cinematic instructional video series taught by real experts across fishing, hunting, camping, hiking, overlanding, and more, paired with curated gear and apparel. We are funded, pre‑launch, and based in Charleston, SC.
The Role We’re looking for a Creative Producer who can own WildStride’s entire media production pipeline — from strategy through delivery. You’ll help decide what we make, who we make it with, and how it gets made, then pick up the camera and craft the brand along the way.
What you’ll own
Content strategy
— Work directly with the founder to shape the content roadmap.
Pre‑production & logistics
— Source and recruit on‑screen expert talent, manage scheduling, locations, travel, rates, and crew.
Cinematography & field direction
— Lead shooter and director in the field, driving creative and technical execution.
Editing
— Produce polished cuts for trailers, promos, brand pieces, and course updates; collaborate with freelancers as needed.
Creative partnership
— Provide a sounding board on creative direction, product decisions, and company strategy.
You're a strong fit if you
Have 3+ years of shooting and producing content, preferably outdoor/adventure work.
Are a skilled cinematographer capable of lighting, framing, and directing people in uncontrolled environments.
Can manage a production from concept through final delivery without supervision.
Are resourceful, organized, and comfortable operating lean.
Have your own creative taste and can voice it.
Have genuine interest in the outdoors.
Are comfortable on‑camera and off‑camera for short and long‑form projects.
Are proficient with editing suites like DaVinci Resolve or Adobe Premiere.
Have experience recruiting or managing on‑screen talent.
Maintain a network of freelance editors, shooters, crew, or outdoors guides/experts.
Background in outdoor, hunting, fishing, or adventure content is a plus.
Experience with Sony cinema cameras and still photography is a plus.
What we offer
$90K–$125K base salary, depending on experience.
Founding team member at a funded startup with equity and profit sharing after year one.
Health insurance stipend if needed.
Access to a professional production kit (Sony A7V, FX3, FX6, DJI Mavic 4 Pro, lighting, audio).
Occasional opportunities to work on client film projects through our production arm.
A seat at the table, not just behind the camera.
