Wanted: Yoda Of Content Creation (Videographer For Reels, Shorts, TikTok)
Dear content creator/videographer or whatever you call yourself,
If you’ve been searching through countless lifeless job listings on Seek…
Almost slipping into a deep coma from the “We’re looking for a highly experienced content creator and videographer... blah blah blah” job adverts...
Then this will be the most important job listing you ever read.
Here’s why...
My name is Sabri Suby and I am looking for a sharp and switched-on videographer to join my team.
But not any old videographer, no. I’m looking for the ‘Yoda of content creation'.
Someone who lives and breathes everything video.
I like to think of it as…

You must be someone who lives on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram.
And know how to identify and jump on trends immediately.
Producing epic content should be your life.
Like something you take so seriously, that if it was an Olympic sport you would take home the gold for Australia...
Okay, okay...
Now, a little about me…
