Social Media Content Creator / Videographer

Far Out Ice Cream is looking for a creative, energetic Social Media Content Creator / Videographer to help bring our brand to life across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, ads, email, and in-store screens.

Far Out is a New Zealand-style real fruit ice cream brand with multiple locations in the Boston area. Our product is colorful, highly visual, and unique: real frozen fruit and hard-scooped ice cream blended fresh to order and swirled into cones, cups, pints, and event experiences.

We already have a strong brand, great colors, a fun personality, and a product people love. Now we are looking for someone who can help us take our social media to the next level with content that feels personal, funny, intimate, local, and alive.

This role is part videographer, part editor, part interviewer, and part creative storyteller. We are not just looking for someone to take pretty product shots. We want someone who can help us show the full world of Far Out: how flavors are created, what it is like behind the counter, what our team is like, what customers love, and what makes our product different.

What You’ll Do

You will help create short-form video content that supports Far Out’s next stage of growth.

Responsibilities include:

Film and edit short-form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, Facebook, ads, and in-store screens
Capture product/process content, including fruit, ice cream, waffle cones, toppings, machine swirls, and customer handoffs
Interview team members, customers, owners, collaborators, and local partners
Help create recurring social media series and content themes
Bring ideas for hooks, captions, storylines, campaigns, and video concepts
Document how we create new flavors, test ideas, and launch seasonal products
Capture behind-the-scenes team moments in a natural and brand-appropriate way
Film content for product drops, local collaborations, events, catering, and store-specific campaigns
Visit multiple Far Out locations in the Boston area as needed
Deliver edited content on a consistent schedule
Help organize footage and create a reusable content library

Content Themes You’ll Help Bring to Life

We are building a more personality-driven social strategy around recurring themes like:

Not Soft Serve: Explaining that Far Out is real fruit and hard-scooped ice cream blended fresh while you watch
Watch the Swirl: Satisfying process videos showing fruit and ice cream turning into Far Out
First Time at Far Out: Beginner-friendly ordering videos that help customers know what to get
Waffle Cone Smell: Fresh waffle cone content and the sensory experience of visiting our stores
Staff Picks: Team members sharing favorite orders, weird combos, and flavor opinions
Weird Combos That Work: Fun, opinionated food content built around surprising customer orders
Flavor Lab: Behind-the-scenes videos showing how we test, debate, and launch new flavors
Neighborhood Orders: Store-specific content for Brookline, Cleveland Circle, Time Out Market, and CambridgeSide
Bring the Swirl to You: Events, catering, weddings, office parties, schools, and community gatherings

Real Fruit, Real Ice Cream, Really Good!

When our founders visited New Zealand, they not only encountered the beautiful culture, but were met with the joy of trying what Kiwi’s call ‘Real Fruit Ice Cream.’

We hope that our ice cream can be a vehicle for something greater: focusing and participating in the rich communities we are located in, spreading happiness to our customers and our team members, and striving towards sustainability goals.

We believe in sincerely connecting with customers and creating a company culture that puts our teammates first. Like every worthwhile mission, the journey to this point takes time. From the beaches in Hull, MA to our beautiful Brookline, MA storefront; we are excited to see where Far Out goes next.
