Responsibilities

Editorial Adaptation: You’ll adjust the newsletter’s written content into a natural spoken format. The episodes should flow smoothly and feel more like a guided conversation than a brief reading.

Recording: You’ll record audio and video episodes of The Flyover in a controlled, professional-looking environment. (This may be in a local studio or in your house; that part is TBD).

Basic A/V Production: The host will be involved in the production process. It’s important that both the audio and video are captured at a high quality level.

Potential Post-production: The role may include audio cleanup, editing & sequencing, ad insertion, music and sound effects, compression and mastering, show notes, as well as distribution. This is not necessarily required of the host, but we could expand the role for a candidate with the right skillset.

Required

News Judgement: We report on current events, and the host needs to be up-to-speed on the news cycle. They also need to be fluent in all major news categories.

Brand Awareness: The Flyover is geared for an audience that detests the cultural slant found in elitist news outlets; you’ll need to become a master of our tone and audience sensitivities.

Voice and Appearance: It’s important that the host is easily understood and has a professional on-camera presence.

Evening Availability: This role will not be performed during normal work hours. The host should be open to evening work, and it shouldn’t be an issue if an episode needs to be recorded later-than-normal because of a late news event.
