Senior Director, New Orleans Corporate Video

We're looking for a visionary Senior Director to helm an engaging corporate video project, focusing on a local New Orleans startup in the green tech sector. This isn't your typical corporate sizzle reel, we're aiming for a narrative-driven piece that highlights innovation and community impact, with a tone that's both inspiring and authentic. This project will involve a mix of interviews, on-location demonstrations, and cinematic B-roll to tell a compelling story. Key responsibilities include leading the creative vision, working closely with the client and production team, overseeing pre-production, directing talent and crew on set, and guiding the post-production process. You'll be instrumental in translating the client's message into a visually striking and emotionally resonant film. We're seeking a director with a proven track record (5+ years) in corporate, commercial, or documentary filmmaking. A strong reel showcasing your ability to craft compelling stories and manage projects effectively is essential. Experience directing in a fast-paced environment and familiarity with New Orleans locations are a plus. While we provide core camera and lighting packages, directors with their own preferred specialized gear or access to unique resources should mention it. Shoot dates are tentatively scheduled for a 1-2 day shoot around November 16, 2026, with 2-3 weeks of prep and a similar timeline for post-production. This is a unique opportunity for an equity partnership in a growing independent production. We're looking for someone who wants to build something meaningful with us.
