The UWSoD is looking for a **Media Technician Senior** to work on a one-time project to create an engaging video, showcasing our newly renovated dental simulation lab, introducing the space and its many features to prospective students, alumni, current students and donors on social media and our website.

Working with the Senior Director of Marketing and Communication, the successful candidate will flesh out the plan for the video, film and edit into a final product for use on our school’s website and social media platforms.

In addition to a video, we are interested in capturing high-quality images of the new space for use on the web and in printed materials. Photography skills are a plus.
