Toronto Star Photo Department offers up two Summer positions

The Toronto Star photo department is offering up a pair of summer positions as we head into a busy summer with Toronto hosting the Pan Am Games.
 
The Toronto Star photo department is looking to fill two summer relief photographer/videographer positions starting the week of June 28 until September 19. We are looking for recent graduates from photojournalism programs and looking all across Canada to find the best possible applicants.
The photographers will need their own equipment, Canon preferred, and their own car. This is a paid position including an additional car allowance. 

The application process is new, all applicants are asked to shoot an assignment. That assignment is to shoot and edit a skating feature video. That video should be under two minutes in length, include titling and music. The videos can be hosted or sent to us for review via wetransfer. 

The videos will be judged and the top applicants will be asked to send their resume and portfolio for review. 

Deadline for that assignment is March 31.
 
Once you have completed the assignment, email a link or wetransfer to Taras Slawnych, tslawnych@thestar.com
