TALENT WHISPERER DIRECTOR WANTED

🚀 About TubeScience

TubeScience is the fastest-growing maker of performance-driven video content.

We partner with the world’s most innovative brands to create, test, and scale videos that drive measurable growth — fast.

Our DNA is creative precision we experiment constantly, move fast, and make content that performs.

💡 The Role

We're looking for a Social Media Content Director whose creative instincts were built on social media — someone who has lived the content creator life (or worked shoulder-to-shoulder with creators) and now wants to bring that fluency to a high-volume production environment.

You'll direct and shoot UGC-style content and socially-native B-roll across dozens of DTC brands — haircare, beauty, wellness, food & bev, apps, and more. You know what makes someone stop scrolling because you've made that content yourself. You understand iPhone-first shooting, platform-native framing (9:16 lives in your bones), and how to make a product moment feel authentic, aspirational, and effortless all at once.

This isn't a traditional DP gig. We need someone who can coach talent the way a creator coaches a collab partner — casually, energetically, and with a deep understanding of what reads as real on TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts, etc. You'll capture clean, versatile footage optimized for creative testing and iteration, while keeping shoots moving fast.

🎥 What You’ll Do

  • Direct and shoot high-performing UGC-style content and socially-native B-roll for social platforms across a wide range of DTC brands
  • Capture lifestyle, product, and talent footage that feels native to social platforms — not like an ad
  • Coach actors, influencers, and real people to deliver authentic, scroll-stopping on-camera performances
  • Shoot across formats and setups — from iPhone-first scrappy content to multi-camera studio shoots — and know when each approach is right
  • Collaborate with creative strategists to translate briefs into visual content that converts
  • Shoot and style B-roll that tells a story on its own: product glamour shots, lifestyle vignettes, unboxing moments, ASMR textures, and day-in-the-life sequences
  • Keep shoots efficient, high-energy, and adaptable
  • Maintain TubeScience's quality, metadata, and compliance standards on every project

🧬 Who You Are

  • 3–5+ years shooting or directing in fast-paced, digital-first environments (UGC, branded content, social, or creator economy ideal)
  • You've been a content creator yourself, or you've worked closely with creators and deeply understand the aesthetic, pacing, and energy of socially-native video
  • You have a portfolio that shows UGC-style work, B-roll storytelling, and/or lifestyle content — think creator reels, product content, and brand collabs, not just traditional commercial work
  • Fluent across camera systems (iPhone through cinema) and comfortable lighting for both polished and raw/authentic looks
  • Strong understanding of what performs on social platforms — you follow trends, you know the formats, and you think in hooks and retention
  • Strong communicator who can direct non-actors and influencers to deliver natural, engaging performances
  • Resourceful, organized, and fast-moving
  • Confident leading sets while keeping energy, collaboration, and creative momentum high

Bonus Points

  • You've built your own social following or have a content portfolio that shows real engagement and aesthetic range
  • Experience creating content across lifestyle categories (travel, fashion, beauty, wellness, food)
  • You've created content that drove measurable results — sales, sign-ups, engagement

About TubeScience

As one of the fastest growing startups in Los Angeles, we're revolutionizing the way in which companies approach successful video advertising. Our team of award-winning Producers, Editors, Directors, Engineers, and Performance Marketing Managers are building a global studio where we can conceptualize, shoot, and produce hundreds of videos per day. Unlike traditional advertising agencies that pitch creative concepts for companies, hope they will perform, and outsource filming, we design videos that are guaranteed to convert. We use data to guide our creative process and leverage testing and analysis to make adjustments to react to users in real-time.

What's atypical about the company:

We're fast and data-driven: our teams develop concepts in the morning, shoot/edit in the afternoon, launch in the evening, and iterate the next day based on real-world performance.

We’re a behavioral R&D lab at the core: We put 2,000+ video experiments per week, watched by tens of millions of people per day, that give us deep insights into how people make decisions. Over the past couple years, we’ve built an enormous library of IP around human behavior and visual communication.

We work on a pure pay for performance basis. Zero production fees for video. Clients only pay us if our videos outperform anything they’re running internally.
