Video Monk
Planet.108 is a Solarpunk Art + Tech Ecosystem based near Auroville — consisting of a community-building slow media app (108.App), a YouTube film series (Era in Mothertown), a Substack, and pop-ups — all centred around a Community Design Philosophy called YING.
"Play and Pause our way back to Human (Comm)Unity — making Solarpunk Real."
We are seeking a proactive & skilled Video Monk to help us craft our weekly films — with a minimum commitment of 6 months — building together with us toward a big launch called 108.Roast on 19 September 2026.
The Work
What you'll do
- Edit one long-form YouTube video per week (scripts + voiceover from Era)
- Shoot small segments when needed
- Cut 2–3 short reels from each video for Instagram
Hard Skills
What you bring
- Video editing experience (Final Cut Pro)
- Good eye for rhythm, silence, light, mood
- Basic shooting skills
- Your own laptop — we have the rest of the gear
Soft Skills — just as important
Who you are
- Reliable, punctual, trustworthy — you're the first voice people meet
- Here to grow with us, not just to clock in
- A real drive to learn — we have a developed style and we want to teach it. Your input is welcome, but this is a co-creation, not a one-person show.
- Open to improvising — we're building something that doesn't exist yet
The Setup
How we work
- 3 hours/day, Mon–Fri, 1:30–4:30 pm
- At the Planet.108 Art Studio near Auroville — AC, big shared table, fruit and drinks provided, a small studio family of 3–4 working together (PS: we sing & dance during breaks)
- ₹12,000/month, with a hike to ₹15,000 after 3 months based on performance
- A one-month paid trial to see if you're a good fit for the team
- 6-month contract (May–October), with a one-month break in November
✿ A lovely side-gig if you're doing gardening or other morning work and want to build a creative skill in the afternoons. ✿
