Description
We are looking for a new team of volunteers to join A4 in 2025. Each volunteer can choose their specialisation among the following: video-making, photography, PR or technical support. The video-maker records the A4 events, artist interviews, does the post-editing and uploading of videos on A4’s YouTube. The photographer takes pictures of the A4 events, does editing in Photoshop / Lightroom and uploads the pictures on A4 Virtual Gallery. The PR creates the graphic layouts of A4 communication materials and focuses on social media management. The technical support assists the team of technicians with preparing the stage, setting the sound & light systems for events and video production. All the participants will cooperate with local professionals to develop their skills and should bring their own computer. Other activities depend on mutual discussion and on individual preferences, background and profile of the volunteer. They can develop their own project. More info www.a4.sk
