WHO WE ARE:
Gigzolo is an early-stage online startup developing a new way for event producers to find & book filmmakers, photographers DJs, and other artists for live events. We're focused on creating more job opportunities for creative people, and making art and live entertainment more accessible for everyone.
We are looking for an individual who loves the arts, who loves engaging in the filmmaking community, and who is willing to onboard artists as a member of Gigzolo's artist engagement team!
The Gigzolo artist community is made up of full-time, professional artists at the top of their craft. That said:
To expand our efforts, we're looking for an elite group of talented individuals endowed with a critical eye to serve as tastemakers in the most comprehensive attempt to classify live-event filmmakers in US history.
What is an entertaining act you say?
Literally anything used in a live event to amaze guests. A few examples: Puppy office crashes (we actually send puppies to surprise folks at the office) Onsite “hipster” dumpling making class (think bacon cheeseburger dumplings) Virtual reality surfing exhibition (gives new meaning to ‘surfing the web’) Aerial bartenders (look it up, they’re awesome)
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
You'll work hand-in-hand with our internal curation team to identify, vet, and onboard hundreds of videographers and other artists across the nation:
CURATION is one of the most important facets of our selection process, and we are looking to YOU to provide us with eyes and ears in the scene.
In Addition:
The internship is a semester long (think 4 months), with opportunities to stay involved thereafter (and become part owner in the company.. more on that later).
We'd love to speak to you about what we're doing, and how you can be a part of it.
If you want to have a role in building something that could change the world, this is your shot. This is not a resume-fluffer internship where you actually do nothing; This is the real deal.
THE COMPANY:
Gigzolo is revolutionizing the way event professionals book handpicked, professional artists (DJs, musicians and soon, photographers) by showing clear pricing and availability for every artist. In minutes, planners can select, chat with, and book artists directly through our platform.
OUR TEAM:
We’re artists and admirers. We're ambitious, focused, intellectual minds with undeniably creative hearts. We're constantly trying to find a balance between being Type-A and wanting to go play outside.
