I am looking for a student ambassador with videography experience to record a short introduction video of one of our FODOCs professors. I have booked out a time slot of 11-12.30pm at Guy's Campus. 

The candidate must have their own equipment and have experience using it. What we require from the final recording is a good quality straightforward 3 minute video of the Professor introducing the course in question, so no need to change camera angles or be too creative. 

We may also ask you to edit the final footage.
