Want to join the FAFC Media Team?

The Club is looking to develop its online media presence and a major part of this is FAFCTV which provides match footage for the Club website as well as for a range of social media platforms. As regular watchers will know FAFCTV also films interviews with players and the management team and other key events around the Club. These videos are very much enjoyed not only by those who come along to Station Park every week but by many people around the world who have a connection to Forfar and want to keep in touch with what is happening at the Club. 

As part of the development of our media activities, a voluntary opportunity has become available for the role of Media Assistant. The main duties of this role will be assisting Josh Grimes, the Club’s lead cameraman, with filming matches and interviews but other projects may come on stream depending on the skillset of the successful candidate. By having someone to support Josh at FAFCTV we aim to create a better match-day experience with increased video coverage on YouTube and through other social media channels.   

We are looking for an enthusiastic individual who may be interested in a career as a videographer, video editor or journalist or someone who is simply interested in this as a hobby. The individual need not be a Forfar Athletic fan but they should have an understanding of football and they must demonstrate a willingness to learn about the Club in order to undertake the role successfully.   

Experience of using video cameras and Video Editing Software would be helpful but not essential as training will be given. (FAFCTV use Movie Maker & Camtasia). Equipment is provided.

Availability on Saturdays on a regular basis during the football season is important although the successful applicant will not be required every Saturday.  

Further details are available from Josh Grimes at E: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or via Twitter direct message to @fafctv.

Anyone interested in the role should email Josh their contact details, a short bio and why they think they would be well suited to this role (please keep the submission to one page of A4).

The deadline for applications is Friday 15^th June 2018.
