Newfangled Studios doesn’t just make ads. We are the ones brands turn to when they need their video-centric campaigns to be dreamed, designed, done and delivered with every single piece of creative effectiveness and platform-specific special sauce baked in from the start.
We’re growing so fast that our clients are actively asking us to pursue cloning solutions. This is why we need a new, conceptually-driven, messaging maven to join us as Associate Creative Director.
Our ideal applicant GETS social front to back and is passionate about video. We're looking for a deep understanding of Snap. TikTok. Twitter. Reddit...and even good old-fashioned Meta.
As a video-first company, we're also looking for someone who 'gets' video and storytelling. You also should just be a nice person. That last part matters a whole lot.
If this sounds like you, do your homework, reach out and write us a thumb-stopping cover letter to tell us why we need to get in touch at talent@newfangledstudios.com with the email subject ACD Position.
