Shoot Sports. Get Paid. Help Athletes Get Recruited.
Recruit Reels is always looking for talented freelance videographers to capture games, showcases, and skills sessions for athletes across the country. If you know your way around a camera and love sports, let's talk.
Steady Sports Work, Real Purpose
For nearly 20 years, Recruit Reels has produced recruiting videos that help athletes get noticed by college coaches -- and the footage starts with videographers like you. When a family needs their athlete's games captured, we send a pro. That pro could be you.
It's freelance work that fits around your schedule: games, showcases, combines, skills sessions, and events, on your own gear, in your own area. You shoot; we handle the editing, the client, and the rest. No chasing clients, no editing marathons, no business headaches -- just the part you're good at, with a company that's been doing this for two decades.
And the work means something. Every reel you help create is an athlete's shot at a scholarship, a roster spot, or the next level. That's a better reason to pick up a camera than most gigs offer.
What We're Looking For
You don't need a studio -- you need the right gear, sports-shooting instincts, and reliability
Your Own Professional Gear:
A professional-quality camera capable of sharp HD (or better) footage, a telephoto/zoom lens for game action, a tripod, and audio for interviews. You shoot on your equipment.
Reliable & Professional:
You show up early, communicate clearly, and deliver footage on time. Reliable transportation to events is a must.
Sports-Shooting Experience:
You understand how to follow live action, frame an athlete, and capture the plays that matter. Prior sports videography is strongly preferred.
Credentials & References:
Verifiable experience and references. All videographers work under a standard freelance contractor's agreement.
