What are the responsibilities and job description for the Shooter / Editor position at Told By Fire Media?
About Told By Fire Media
Told By Fire Media is a high-capacity brand strategy, social media marketing, and video production agency based in East Providence, Rhode Island.
We serve as the creative engine for some of Rhody’s most recognized small-business brands — and demand has taken us beyond state lines. What started local has grown into a multi-state operation (five and counting, with international projects on deck).
Our team is a mix of in-house and remote creatives — filmmakers, strategists, editors, and designers — who live for the moment a vision becomes visible. We build stories that don’t just look good, but work hard — content that moves people and metrics.
TBF was founded by a Rhode Island-born director who spent a decade in Los Angeles working in film, TV, and music videos before coming home to build something different — a production company rooted in craft, community, and results.
We’re more than an agency; we’re a team of creative professionals — the FireFam — dedicated to our clients, our craft, and each other’s growth.
Manifest your vision. Spread the word.

- Learn our internal processes and tools; stay open to feedback, growth, and creative development.
- Participate constructively in project reviews and brainstorming sessions.
Qualifications
- Enthusiastic, positive, self-starter who can take direction and initiative.
- Professional experience in videography and non-linear editing (Adobe Premiere Pro required).
- Ownership or access to your own equipment and experience with Sony equipment, lighting, and sound equipment.
