The posting

Texas Sports Academy is a K-12 school designed for serious student-athletes who want both elite academics and high-level athletic development. Students cover 2x the material in fewer hours a day, using the same 2-Hour Learning model as Alpha School. That frees up their entire afternoon for serious training, where they work alongside former pro and D1 athletes coaching them at the highest standard.

We're hiring a Videographer based in Houston to shoot and edit daily video content across youth sports tournaments, practices, games, and brand events. You'll own the camera work, the edit, and the asset library, producing short-form vertical content for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. You'll often be the only videographer on location, so you'll also be the team's main point of contact for the school you're filming at. You'll work closely with our Houston and Austin Social Media team and report back on what's happening on campus: upcoming events, standout students and coaches, schedule changes, and story ideas worth chasing. This role suits someone who works well on their own and communicates clearly and proactively.

What You'll Do

  • Shoot Daily on Location: Capture video at youth sports tournaments, practices, games, and brand events across Houston and surrounding areas. Plan coverage so each shoot produces multiple pieces of usable content.
  • Capture the Full Story: Get player highlights, behind-the-scenes moments, athlete and coach interviews, and atmosphere and B-roll footage.
  • Edit Short-Form Vertical Content: Cut Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts optimized for each platform. Handle pacing, sound design, captions, and on-screen text so each piece is ready to post.
  • Manage the Asset Library: Own footage organization, file backups, and a searchable archive of raw and edited assets so the team can find what they need.
  • Stay Current on Trends: Track social trends, viral formats, and new editing techniques, and apply them to the content you're producing.
  • Fast Turnaround: Deliver same-day or next-day edits on event content so it goes live while the moment is still relevant.

Requirements

  • Portfolio of Short-Form Vertical Work: A reel of Reels, TikToks, or Shorts you've shot and edited, ideally for a brand, team, or creator account in sports, athletics, or lifestyle.
  • Camera Work in Live Environments: Experience shooting handheld in fast, unpredictable settings such as sidelines, courtside, and crowded venues, with consistent results on focus, framing, and exposure.
  • Editing Fluency: Proficient in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut Pro. Strong understanding of hooks, pacing, sound design, and platform-specific best practices for vertical video.
  • Strong Editorial Judgment: Able to anticipate the shot, read a game or event in real time, and identify which moments will cut well in post.
  • Sports Content Background: Prior experience shooting for a team, league, club, or sports brand.
  • Footage Management: A reliable system for cards, backups, folder structure, and file naming so assets are organized and retrievable.
  • Gear: Own or have access to a professional camera setup (mirrorless or cinema body), lenses, audio, and basic lighting.
  • Location: Based in Houston, TX. Reliable transportation to shoots across the Houston metro area. U.S. work authorization required.

Bonus Points

  • AI-Assisted Editing: Proficient in using AI tools within a professional editing workflow, such as Premiere Pro’s MCP integration, Claude Code, or Google Flow, to generate rough cuts, captions, and platform variations. Able to review and refine AI-generated output to a publishable standard.
  • Motion Design: Ability to build graphics, lower thirds, and animated text in After Effects or directly in your editor.
  • Photography: Basic knowledge of photography, and the ability to switch between photo and video on occasion.
  • Interview Experience: Comfortable running short interviews with athletes, coaches, or parents.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
