    Description

    We are looking for a volunteer Volunteer English Spanish speaker to join the production team for POWER & LIGHT—a documentary exploring the intersection of religion, climate change, and environmental justice. Power & Light is a lively portrait of a Dominican “Padre” (Pastor) and his Minnesotan wife, who bring the gospel of Creation Care to their community in Lawrence, MA.

    Hands-on learning experience low-key (no pressure). The Producer/Director will work with you for the beginning of an Assistant / Associate Producer role, making it an excellent opportunity to build foundational skills.

    Who we are looking for:

    Skills: A very strong writer and good researcher. Able to work alone but ask for direction when needed.

    Language: Fluent Spanish for this project. Good is OK, but not great!

    Editing: Experience with Premiere Pro, if interested in editing.

    What you’ll do:

    Review documentary cuts and written materials. Assist with editing if interested. Re-do project pitch / digital presence.

    Most of the beginning work is learning to network, some grant applications WITH HELP. These are absolutely vital skills for independent filmmaking.

    The Logistics:

    College Credit: Available if you are enrolled student

    Schedule: 10-15 hours/week. Less and it won’t be worthwhile.

    Location: Hybrid setup. Much of the work can be done remotely, paired with essential in-person sessions in Tribeca Studio or at WESTBETH in the West Village.

    To Apply:

    Please send your resume to marion@incite-pictures.com.

    NOTE: As a small team, we are unable to reply to every applicant individually. However, we review every application with care and keep strong candidates on file for future projects. We appreciate your interest!
