We are currently looking only for volunteers. More updates as the magazine evolves.
We are looking for individuals to join our award-winning audio team in producing story narrations for our website and podcast. Responsibilities include:
- Reading stories selected for publication and working with the audio team to create a production schedule for each issue.
- Producing rough drafts of audio stories from recordings sent by narrators.
- Communicating with authors and editors to receive feedback on audio drafts and sending pickup requests to narrators.
- Inserting pickups to create final mixdowns of the narrations for publication.
- Creating short marketing clips of audio stories for the social media team.
khōréō is a quarterly magazine that publishes four issues per year, with each issue typically containing 5-6 stories. Audio producers should expect to be assigned one story every 3 months, with some variation based on staffing and number of stories in a given issue.
Please note that khōréō is a volunteer-run organization; this is an unpaid position. Prior experience is not required, and we provide all training and tools required for the above tasks, so individuals interested in developing audio production skills are encouraged to apply.
TO APPLY:
Please email audio@khoreomag.com with a statement of interest (including any relevant experience and/or previous projects that you have worked on) and why you’d like to volunteer with khōréō.
We especially encourage individuals who identify as immigrants or members of a diaspora, and especially BIPOC, to apply for this position.
Applications will be considered on a rolling basis until Jan 15, 2025.
