About Sohaara
Sohaara is a workforce and opportunity platform designed to help professionals and entrepreneurs get ready, stay relevant, access the right tools, and connect with work, funding, clients, people, and opportunities.

We are currently creating a significant amount of new video content around Sohaara, our products, our programs, and the ideas behind the company.

What We're Looking For
We are looking for a

creative, reliable filmmaker/videographer

in the Greater Boston area to work directly with Sohaara's founder to produce authentic, high-quality video content.

This is not a large commercial production. We want someone who can come in with a camera, good audio and basic lighting, create a clean setup, and efficiently record several pieces of content during a 3-4 hour session, or work in their studio as well.

Most filming will take place

in or around Norwood, Massachusetts , with occasional shoots elsewhere in the Greater Boston area.

Content may include:

Founder speaking directly to camera
Short thought-leadership videos

What You'll Do

Set up camera, lighting and professional-quality audio

Recommend framing, positioning and simple filming setups

Direct the founder when useful while keeping the delivery natural

Record multiple videos efficiently during each session

Capture occasional B-roll and alternative shots

Organize and transfer the footage after filming

Editing will be done with the internal team.

What You Should Have

Experience filming people speaking directly to camera

Your own camera and basic production equipment

Good understanding of lighting and audio

A strong visual eye and clean, modern aesthetic

Ability to make someone on camera look polished without making the content feel overly produced

Reliability and ability to work independently

A portfolio or examples of previous video work

You do

not

need to be an established production company. Talented freelancers, independent filmmakers, recent film/media graduates, and strong emerging videographers are welcome.

Compensation
$40-$50 per hour , depending on experience and equipment.

Most sessions will be approximately

3-4 hours at a time .

This is intended to become a

recurring relationship , rather than a one-time shoot. As Sohaara grows its content library, there should be opportunities for continued filming.

We're particularly interested in seeing examples of

founder videos, talking-head content, and product videos.

Please do not apply if your work is only available through full-service production packages. We are specifically looking for an individual who can work with us on an hourly, recurring basis.
