teamfortress.tv Recruitment Thread

teamfortress.tv is looking to continue to push the limits when it comes to creating high-quality TF2 content. To do this, we’re looking to recruit people! Each type of position will be marked with the region where we very likely need people.

Feel free to sign up for multiple spots, as well as being in reserve. Certain positions will require more commitment than other spots (as described), but if you're unsure about what we want, please ask.

ALL positions will require good communication and a positive attitude (in relation to the rest of the TFTV staff), and all positions are on a volunteer basis, so don't feel bad if you don't have the time or motivation for a project with no monetary element (however, we credit all our staff as much as we can!).

WE NEED:

  • Producers (EU/NA) - Producers bring together the entire cast, combining audio, live graphics, and a game view to create a stream that is enjoyable to watch. Potential producers must have the ability to stream to Twitch at high quality (4500 bitrate upload minimum), and are recommended to have skill in managing the in-game camera.

  • Casters/Commentators (NA) - Casters bring the excitement to a cast by hyping up the game as it happens and helping break it down. Potential casters must have a great understanding of the game and either a talent for calling the action as it happens or providing high-level insight into the game. If I can do it, who can't?

  • News Writers (ALL REGIONS) - News writers create articles and news stories that cover events related to the competitive TF2 community, including leagues, tournaments and roster transactions. Potential writers should have an understanding of the community and the topics they want to cover, and are recommended to have a portfolio for our evaluation but it is not required.
    Applicants from Europe, Asia, Australia, and South America are preferred

  • Event Writers (NA/EU) - Event writers help give shape to the main match event threads in the upcoming events sidebar by giving a detailed preview into the event's participants, teams, and story lines. Again, potential writers should have an understanding of the community and the topics they want to cover, and are recommended to have a portfolio for our evaluation but it is not required.

  • Video Producers (EU/NA) - Video producers create and edit videos that are used to promote events, combining audio, footage, and special effects to make truly compelling stories. Potential video producers should have experience with video editing, and are recommended to have a portfolio for our evaluation.

  • Maybe something else! (EU/NA) - If you feel like you're able to contribute in an interesting fashion, or have a specific talent you'd like to go towards helping us, feel free to apply!

Keep note! All of these positions are on a volunteer basis. If you are interested in joining the team, you can apply by sending a teamfortress.tv PM to gemm for EU applicants and Console- for NA applicants with the opportunities you are interested in and any relevant information to effectively determine your qualifications for the team. Those interested in News Writing opportunities for all regions can apply by sending a teamfortress.tv PM to bleghfarec. If you are interested in helping out and have talents that don’t quite fit into these positions, or have general ideas or feedback for how our productions can be improved, feel free to reach out to Console- by teamfortress.tv Personal Message as well. Thanks for your interest and support.

Right now we are looking for News writers for pretty much all regions to help broaden exposure to otherwise smaller lesser known about scenes like ANZ SEA, SA, etc. At this time we are still primarily focused on broadcasting North American and European matches (though I would be happy to invest time in doing more regions if the demand was there)

TFTV doesn't do much for SEA coverage wise, if you want to get the production and casts sorted out & improved there I're recommend contacting me or fozzlm to get TFLIVETV on it.
