Detroit Venture Partners, LLC. is hiring: Cinematographer in Detroit

About Nox Metals.
American factories deserve a supply chain that moves as fast as they do. Nox Metals is building it, along with the tools that run it. We’re a technology company with operations in Metro Detroit and Los Angeles, supplying aluminum plate, bar, and rounds to aerospace and defense manufacturers. We use software and automation to supply metal to American factories faster than the industry thought possible.

The role.
We’re hiring a Cinematographer to make the work of rebuilding American manufacturing impossible to ignore. You will create distinctive films about our factories, customers, people, and technology, from fast-moving social content to polished brand and recruiting pieces.

This is a hands‑on role for someone who can find a story on a noisy factory floor, light it safely, and carry a strong visual idea from planning through capture. You will work closely with marketing, recruiting, sales, and operations and travel between our facilities as production requires.

You will:

Develop visual treatments, shot lists, lighting plans, and production schedules

Direct and capture interviews, factory processes, product footage, and customer stories

Operate cinema cameras, lenses, lighting, audio, stabilization, and related production equipment

Work safely around active industrial equipment and follow all site requirements

Translate campaign goals into images with a recognizable Nox Metals point of view

Partner with editors and designers to plan coverage that cuts cleanly across formats

Organize, label, back up, and hand off footage and production notes reliably

Maintain equipment and improve our in-house production workflow

Balance planned productions with fast-turn opportunities from the floor

You are:

A strong visual storyteller with excellent composition, lighting, camera movement, and exposure judgment

Comfortable directing both experienced speakers and people who have never been on camera

Resourceful in imperfect, fast-moving environments

Organized about preproduction, releases, media management, and deadlines

Respectful of safety and the people doing the work

Curious about manufacturing, machinery, and the people who keep American industry moving

Low ego, collaborative, and willing to carry gear and solve the unglamorous problems

Nice to have:

Experience filming industrial, automotive, aerospace, documentary, or commercial work

Working knowledge of sound recording, color workflows, and motion‑control tools

Experience creating vertical and short‑form content without sacrificing craft

FAA Part 107 certification or experience coordinating drone shoots

Comfort using AI tools to improve research, planning, and production workflows

Benefits:

Equity in Nox Metals

Company‑paid medical, dental, and vision insurance

This role is full time and in person in either Los Angeles or Detroit, with travel between sites as needed.

Nox Metals is an equal opportunity employer. We hire based on skill, attitude, and fit for the work, and we do not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, age, disability, veteran status, height, weight, marital status, or any other protected status under federal, state, or local law.
