What are the responsibilities and job description for the Video Producer position at TH MEDIA?
Video Producer
Full-Time – Des Moines, Iowa (Must be local)
Travel required for one-off and campaign shoots across Iowa and the Midwest
About TH Media
We're a creative agency built for brands who want to show up, stand out, and grow. Our specialty is high-impact video and content marketing — but our real focus is helping clients succeed through partnership and storytelling. We're fast-growing, flexible, and fiercely passionate about what we do. We don't do unnecessary meetings, rigid hierarchies, or bloated systems. We move quickly, stay scrappy, and work with people who care.
Our core values are at the center of everything:
- Relationship First - We lead with value, support, and a genuine desire to see our clients win.
- Own It - We treat every client's business like our own. We do what we say, take initiative, stay accountable, and make it right.
- Raise the Standard - We protect our reputation and our clients through integrity, professionalism, and relentless attention to detail.
- Bring the Energy - We show up with solutions, momentum, and a genuine belief that great work is always possible.
- Check the Ego - Humility isn't optional here, it's how we show up. We check our ego at the door every day. We give more credit than we take, we stay open to being wrong, and we never let pride get in the way of great work.
About the Role
TH Media is looking for a Video Producer to own pre- through post-production on our one-off and campaign video work — long-form testimonials, commercials, ad spots, and other standalone projects. This role is focused specifically on long-form and campaign-focused, project-based work. You're the person who owns these projects end-to-end: real planning, a strong directorial eye, and a process that holds up from first concept to final delivery.
You'll own the full lifecycle of your projects: pre-production planning, shoot days, and post-production through final delivery. You should be comfortable leading a shoot, making creative calls in the moment, and carrying a project through editing without needing someone else to manage the process for you.
Key Responsibilities
- Pre-Production
- Plan and scope one-off and campaign video projects from initial concept through shoot-ready
- Develop shot lists, storyboards, and production plans that set each project up for a smooth shoot
- Coordinate logistics — locations, talent, equipment, scheduling — for shoots across Iowa and the Midwest
- Production
- Lead and execute shoots for long-form testimonials, commercials, ad spots, and other one-off content work
- Make strong creative and technical calls on-set — framing, lighting, performance — without needing direction on every shot
- Manage gear and crew on shoot days, keeping production on schedule and on budget
- Post-Production
- Own editing from rough cut through final delivery, including color, sound, and motion/graphics work as needed
- Ensure final deliverables match the creative and strategic intent set during pre-production
- Manage file organization and project archiving in line with agency standards
- Collaboration & Ownership
- Own the quality and timeline of your assigned projects end-to-end — you're the one accountable for getting it done right
- Partner with the Director of Accounts and Director of Content to make sure production work matches account strategy and client expectations
- Bring a point of view to projects — push for the stronger creative choice, not just the easier one
What We're Looking For
You’re a fit if you are:
- Experienced across the full production lifecycle, with 5 years of professional video production experience spanning pre-production, shooting, and editing — not just one piece of it
- Comfortable leading long-form, project-based shoots (commercials, testimonials, campaign work) where planning and process matter
- Strong technically leading and operating — camera, lighting, and audio on set; confident in your edit, color, and sound work in post
- Organized enough to manage multiple concurrent projects, each with its own timeline and stakeholders
- Willing to travel for shoots across Iowa and the Midwest
- Someone who brings a strong creative point of view and isn't afraid to advocate for the better choice
Why This Role Matters
Our one-off and campaign video work carries its own demands — longer timelines, bigger productions, and projects that often represent a client's single biggest investment with us that year. This role exists to give that work the dedicated focus and craftsmanship it needs, with a process built for long-form, project-based production. Your work will directly shape how our biggest campaigns land for clients and how TH Media shows up on projects that carry real weight.
