I am launching a new YouTube channel focused on technology, engineering, assembly videos, product teardowns, and hands-on manufacturing builds.
Content will include:
• Talking-head and podcast-style segments
• Studio "stream mode" content
• Cinematic product shots
• Assembly and build videos
• Engineering walk-throughs
• Close-up filming using the iPhone 16 Pro with the Blackmagic Camera app
• The first major project will be filming the build of our new video storage server (NAS)
I am looking for someone who can help run the studio while I am on camera and also edit the final videos for YouTube. This begins as a paid gig and can turn into consistent weekly work or a longer-term role as the channel grows.
