If you are looking to get involved with your community…..then this may just the thing you are looking for. Nevada County Now is our flagship project that not only delivers news to the community, but helps people learn all of the aspects of live television, and all that goes into producing it. NCM is looking for folks who are wishing to volunteer in front and behind the camera. It is the ultimate volunteer project that benefits all of the community.

Below are the positions we are seeking:

• Hosts (on-camera) - the “host” role is the person that is delivering information to the camera, as well as introducing and chatting with guests. We have both regular and guest host positions. Host roles may include delivering the entire program, or a segment of it. It may be in or out of the studio. All people in front of the camera must do a test screening.

• In-depth Interview Host (on-camera) - This is for individuals who like doing a bit of research about people and then chatting with them (on camera). It will include you working with the NC team to schedule guests. that you sit down and interview.

• Narrative Storyteller (voice-over) - This is for individuals who like telling a story about a topic. They are the voice behind what the audience is seeing. This role helps write the copy for the stories, as well as recording the voice-over for them.

• Graphics - This position is for those who like creating the look of a project. The needs are fairly simple and usually require a fast turn around.

• Episode Producer Trainee - If you are someone who would like to learn what it takes to put together a “live recorded” news show, well look no further. This is both rewarding and a pretty easy process.

• Field Crew - If you are someone who wants to help gather b-roll or shoot field interviews, this is a fun project to volunteer your time on.

• Studio Crew - If you would like to volunteer but have no clue what your doing, no worries…….NCN is a program that unites people of all skill sets. The program always needs researchers, writers, greeters, and runners.

• Promotional - If you are someone who likes spreading the word, then this is a perfect project for you. It includes everything from writing promo scripts, to passing out “how to watch” cards at events.

Please do not wear green if you are coming for an on-camera screening.
