Please post here if you have intentions on submitting a video and then post again once you have it completed

We have 1,000,000 unique visitors a month - this could mean a lot of exposure for someone

It sounds fun, and I have all the required video equipment, but I can't 100% commit to the time required.

I am sure that we could work something out if you are really interested

Show us that you really have what it takes

Don't make us CHOOSE someone to do this

Just kidding!

Could we have a little more information on this? I don't fully understand what they would actually be doing, or am i missing something that is implied?

Definition of a host:

Quote:

One who receives or entertains guests in a social or official capacity.

Basically, we are looking for someone to do this for all of our live events.

As Events Editor, I will be running the "technical" side of these events (providing a live event, getting everything ready for an event, etc.).

As Live Events Host, you will be in charge of entertaining our guests/members for these events. You're main concern is in "hosting" these events and making them the best they can be. I know that I am being general here so maybe admin could chime in on this

Also, as Live Events Host you will be given the responsibility of providing an audio/video recap of the event afterwords for our community to be able to enjoy.

I hope this answers at least some of your questions
