Summit Institute for Young Scholars is a selective academic enrichment program that places high school students in faculty-mentored research projects at institutions like Harvard and Columbia. We’re looking for a UGC creator to produce short-form Instagram videos that speak to ambitious students and their parents.
What you’ll do:
• Film and edit short-form videos (Reels) for our Instagram
• Work from scripts we provide, and help adapt them so they sound natural on camera
• Follow production notes closely, including shot lists, talking points, and brand guidelines
• Deliver polished, ready-to-post videos on agreed timelines
What we’re looking for:
• Confident, natural presence on camera
• Strong delivery of scripted content without sounding stiff
• Good eye for lighting, framing, and audio quality
• Ability to take direction and revise based on feedback
• Experience creating UGC for brands (education, lifestyle, or student-focused content is a plus)
To apply, please include:
1 Links to 2 to 3 videos you’ve created in the past, ideally scripted or brand-directed content
2 A short note on your experience working from scripts and production notes
3 Your typical turnaround time
Please start your proposal with the word “Scholar” so we know you’ve read the full post.
We look forward to seeing your work!
