MileSplit Rhode Island is seeking contributor help with race videos and meet coverage this 2021 cross country season.
If interested in being paid to cover meets please reach out to Jason Creasy at jason.creasy@flosports.tv with an email titled Contributor Help and listing any relative experience or equipment you may have.
Note this is not a full-time position, we pay contributors as freelancers on a per meet basis.
We're Looking For...
- Race Video & Interviews - would travel to meets around the state, or in their area, with a camera and stand to record each race. If able then gather a handful of post-meet interviews where the athletes talk about their performance as well. Once the meet is over you would then name and upload the files to the appropriate meet page.
- Writers - someone with a writing background or passion for Rhode Island Cross Country and Track & Field looking to help us grow coverage of the sport within the state.
- Photographers - someone with their own camera that can shoot the start, a point during the middle of the race, and athletes through the finish line shoot and upload after the conclusion of the event.
If a well-rounded contributor joins our team and consistently performs well with interest in expanding their coverage duties we may look at adding a stipend role to the site to involve more coverage, writing, live streaming, and so on.
For those with little experience, as long as you are interested in the sport and providing coverage we're always up for helping people gain experience. Many of our past successful contributors have joined us in this fashion.
