Wild Card Creative Group
Wild Card Creative Group is a Worldbuilding Agency focused on ONE mission: the advancement of storytelling
- We have a content innovation studio that uses insights to identify an audience & how to immerse them into a world. These are then turned stories into participation-first content and experiences (social campaigns, original content, experiential, etc.)
- We create the opening line (trailer, a/v assets), the moment that invites the audience into the story.
WCCG is looking for a Creative Coordinator (Freelance) to join our A/V team immediately. There is possibility of converting from freelance to permanent full-time staff for the right candidate. The Creative Coordinator (Freelancer) will take part in both the creative and logistical tasks for the creative department. As a coordinator, you’re primarily responsible for assisting the AV producing team primarily with scheduling and project management.
