SHAMAYIM STUDIOS
BEHIND-THE-SCENES & EDITORIAL CONTENT CREATORS
Global Creative Roster for Film + Stills
SHAMAYIM Studios is building a global network of exceptional Behind-the-Scenes and Content Creators for upcoming editorial, commercial, documentary, and creative productions.
We are looking for experienced, highly talented, visually sophisticated creatives who understand fashion, cinema, photography, storytelling, and the visual language of luxury.
This is not a traditional BTS position.
SHAMAYIM is not looking for someone to simply walk around a set with a phone and capture candid footage. We are looking for creators who can transform the energy, environment, talent, fashion, and creative process of a production into polished, intentional, editorial-quality film and still imagery.
The work should feel considered, cinematic, refined and unmistakably creative.

There is a significant distinction between documenting a production and creating content from a production.

Beautifully composed stills
Intentional portraits

Creative angles and perspectives
Moments of interaction between talent and crew
Beautiful documentation of wardrobe, hair and makeup
Architectural and destination details

-
SHAMAYIM is particularly interested in creatives who bring bold, original ideas to the table.
If you envision an interesting sequence, create it.
If you see an opportunity for a different perspective, take it.
If you have an idea for how a production could translate into a compelling piece of film, bring it to the team.
We are building a creative network—not simply hiring camera operators.
Your point of view matters.
-
SHAMAYIM productions can be highly visual, fast-moving and demanding.

You must be comfortable working within that environment while remaining calm, observant and creatively engaged.
You should be able to:
Work independently
Anticipate moments
Move efficiently around a production
