    Description

    Gaming Event Broadcast Production Crew Member

    🎥 Join the Crew: Gaming Event Broadcast Team 🎮

    Are you passionate about gaming culture and live production? We are looking for a high-energy, technically-minded Broadcast Crew to help bring our Wednesday Weekly gaming events to life! From high-stakes Fighting game matches to retro gaming showdowns at Dave & Buster’s Atlantic Center, you’ll be the gears behind the scenes making the magic happen.

    Key Responsibilities:

    • Live Production: Operate streaming software (OBS or Streamlabs, ) to manage scene transitions, overlays, and live graphics.
    • Camera Operation: Set up and manage high-quality camera angles for gameplay "top-downs," player face-cams, and wide shots of the event floor.
    • Audio Management: Monitor and mix audio levels, ensuring commentators and game sounds are crisp and balanced in a loud environment.
    • Engagement: Monitor live chats across platforms (Twitch/YouTube) and coordinate with event hosts for Q&A or community shout-outs.
    • Technical Troubleshooting: Quickly resolve any connectivity or hardware issues to ensure a smooth, uninterrupted broadcast.
    • Content Clipping: Identify and capture "hype moments" or game-winning plays for post-event social media reels.

    Qualifications & Skills:

    • Technical Fluency: Proven experience with streaming platforms and basic video production hardware (DSLRs, capture cards, mixers).
    • Gaming Knowledge: A genuine interest in Fighting games, TCGs (Magic, Pokémon), Retro Games, or Board Games is a huge plus! You should know a "big play" when you see one.
    • Adaptability: Ability to think on your feet in a fast-paced, high-energy environment like Dave & Buster's.
    • Communication: Strong teamwork skills; you’ll be working closely with commentators, players, and event coordinators.
    • Reliability: Must be available for the Wednesday night shifts (6 PM – 11 PM) at our Brooklyn location.

    Event Details & Perks

    • Location: Dave & Buster’s, 625 Atlantic Ave, Brooklyn, NY.
    • Schedule: Every Wednesday night.
    • The Vibe: You’ll be at the heart of the local gaming scene, networking with top players and creators.
    • Growth: Opportunity to build a professional portfolio in live-streaming and event broadcasting.
