Woven Digital, Inc., is seeking an up and coming journalist/filmmaker for Uproxx Reports, our original news division.

About Uproxx Reports
Uproxx is dedicated to producing inquisitive, unique and authentic digital content that impacts youth culture and makes vital stories a conversation.

The ideal candidate is one who has news/documentary experience, shoots, edits and produces their own work and has worked under extremely tight deadlines to tell compelling, polished and engaging pieces catered to the web.

Candidate will be responsible for producing -- getting releases signed, staying on a strict budget, etc -- coming up with story ideas and working efficiently.
