Multiplatform Producer - Field, Studio & Digital
About the role
The Multiplatform Producer is PHLgovTV's utility producer, redefined for a multiplatform channel. This role is the second producer on every shoot, the segment producer for PSAs and Philadelphia Minute interstitials, and the producer of all social-first content — episode clips, promos, and platform-specific cuts — in coordination with the Director of Digital Strategies. The Multiplatform Producer ensures that everything PHLgovTV makes for broadcast also works on the web, on social platforms, and on OTT.
Essential Functions
- Serve as second producer on all studio and field shoots: pre-production logistics, location coordination, releases and permits, B-camera operation as needed, and on-set production support.
- Produce the PSA pipeline: write, produce, and deliver 90-second PSAs including bilingual EN/ES versions coordinated with the contract Spanish-language associate, maintaining a minimum rotation of 12 PSAs.
- Produce Philadelphia Minute interstitials in batches of 12 per quarter.
- Cut and deliver social-first content: 60–90 second episode clips, show promos, stills, and platform-specific versions for Instagram, Facebook, YouTube Shorts, and LinkedIn, on the weekly social calendar set with the Director of Digital Strategies.
- Manage YouTube publishing support: uploads, titles, descriptions, tags, playlists, and chapter markers for government hearings.
- Support OTT content organization and metadata in TelVue Connect as Roku/Apple TV distribution launches.
- Maintain the media asset library: ingest logging, tagging, and archive organization for all field and studio footage.
- Provide surge support for live government hearing coverage as assigned.
Competencies, Knowledge, Skills and Abilities

- Solid camera and audio fundamentals for B-camera and run-and-gun work.
- Highly organized with strong asset-management discipline.
- Spanish-language proficiency a plus, supporting bilingual PSA production.
Qualifications
