Head Of Production

Overview

Video Brothers produces comedy-first B2B commercials at a high clip. We do it with heavy previs, repeatable systems, and a tech-forward workflow that keeps production calm and predictable.

We’re hiring a Head of Production to own execution end-to-end — pre-production through delivery — while improving the production machine over time.

Mission

Own production execution (pre → shoot → post) so batches ship on time, sets stay calm, and our systems get better every month.

Responsibilities

Pre-Production

1. Build and maintain batch schedules and pre-pro timelines
2. Track budgets within established guardrails
3. Coordinate casting logistics (casting decks, sides, auditions, holds, bookings)
4. Coordinate locations (scouting support, agreements, permits/COI as needed)
5. Book crew/freelancers/vendors and manage expectations
6. Coordinate gear planning (internal + rentals when required)
7. Maintain production documentation (call sheets, production books, contact sheets, contingency plans

Production

1. Lead the on-set schedule and execution (Producer + 1st AD-style leadership)
2. Keep set safe, calm, efficient, and aligned to plan
3. Solve problems fast without creating new ones
4. Coordinate departments so the director can direct

Post & Delivery

1. Own post handoffs and coordination across edit/audio/color/GFX/VFX
2. Track versions, review cycles, approvals, and delivery checklists
3. Lead QC and ensure organized asset management across platforms

Systems & Improvement

1. Operate inside our Airtable-powered production OS and tool stack
2. Reduce manual busywork through better templates, automation, and responsible AI/tool usage
3. Partner with leadership to refine how we scale production

Work Model

1. Hybrid; must be based in the Denver metro area
2. Normal weeks: 9–5 flexible
3. Batch shoot days: usually 10 hours, occasionally 12
4. Production format: 4-day batch (prep/build/pre-light + 3 shoot days, one client/day)

Requirements

1. 3+ years at a production company/agency or equivalent production environment
2. Demonstrated ability to manage schedules, logistics, and real shoots
3. Solid grasp of production and post workflows
4. Tech-forward, comfortable learning tools and working inside systems
5. Calm operator; high ownership; low ego

Tools & Software

1. Airtable (core), Shotlister/Shotput/Previs Pro, Google Workspace, Slack, MediaSilo, CloudSpot, Figma, and AI tools.
2. We use tech (and AI) to reduce manual work—not to reduce standards.

Bonus

1. Commercial comedy sensibility
2. Hands-on maker instincts (building/rigging/solving physical problems)

Compensation & Benefits

1. $70,000 salary
2. Health + dental, parental leave, professional development stipend
3. 30 days PTO + major holidays
