Social Media Content Creator / Videographer

Social Media Content Creator / Videographer

Far Out Ice Cream is looking for a creative, energetic Social Media Content Creator / Videographer to help bring our brand to life across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, ads, email, and in-store screens.

Far Out is a New Zealand-style real fruit ice cream brand with multiple locations in the Boston area. Our product is colorful, highly visual, and unique: real frozen fruit and hard-scooped ice cream blended fresh to order and swirled into cones, cups, pints, and event experiences.

We already have a strong brand, great colors, a fun personality, and a product people love. Now we are looking for someone who can help us take our social media to the next level with content that feels personal, funny, intimate, local, and alive.

This role is part videographer, part editor, part interviewer, and part creative storyteller. We are not just looking for someone to take pretty product shots. We want someone who can help us show the full world of Far Out: how flavors are created, what it is like behind the counter, what our team is like, what customers love, and what makes our product different.
