To own the technical capture of The Diary of a CEO — the picture and sound of every recording, anywhere in the world. This person leads the crew who deliver it, so that every episode is captured flawlessly, at the show’s elite technical and editorial standard, with zero unforced errors. A hands-on hybrid of Director of Photography, Technical Director, and Audio Mixer, this is the person who guarantees that what happens in the room is captured perfectly in image, sound, and atmosphere, while keeping the recording environment calm, intimate, and uncompromised.
Flawless capture: Every DOAC recording is captured at broadcast-grade quality across picture, sound, and look, right the first time, with nothing lost, mistracked, or compromised.
The room protected: The intimacy and calm of every recording is preserved; the capture operation is never seen and never heard.
Consistency everywhere: Every shoot, in every market, looks and sounds unmistakably like DOAC, whether run personally or with crew sourced cold.
A crew that holds the bar: Freelance technical crew, wherever they are hired, deliver to the DOAC standard under clear direction.
Marginal gains, every week: Image, sound, setup, and workflow get measurably better through a relentless 1% improvement habit.
1. Technical Capture & Floor Execution
Own the picture and sound of every recording, operating as DP, Technical Director, and Audio Mixer across DOAC’s multi-camera setup.
Run the camera package personally, covering lighting, framing, exposure, and look, and direct camera operators to the DOAC standard.
Operate the switcher and the live multi-camera cut, managing ISO records and multi-format delivery.
Run sound recording across mics, levels, and a clean, broadcast-grade audio capture for every guest, every segment.
2. Crew Leadership & Quality Bar
Build and direct freelance technical crew across camera, technical direction, sound, and specialist roles, holding the craft standard on who works on DOAC.
Source and vet crew in unfamiliar markets, exercising the taste to judge an unknown operator, mixer, or TD cold and hold them to the bar.
Brief and run the crew on the day so the whole capture team operates as one calibrated unit, accountable to DOAC’s technical and editorial standards.
3. The Room: Discretion, Intimacy & Judgment
Protect the recording environment. DOAC conversations are sensitive and high-trust, and the capture operation must never disturb that.
Enforce the “neither seen nor heard” doctrine. Crew invisibility is the baseline standard, not the aspiration.
Read the room and exercise judgment in real time, knowing when to move, when to hold, and when a technical need yields to the moment in front of the guest.
Ensure every guest’s in-studio experience is flawless and undisturbed, from arrival through wrap.
4. Global Production & Travel
Travel with the show to LA, NYC, London, and anywhere DOAC records, running capture personally on the road, often at short notice.
Stand up technical capture in any market, covering equipment logistics, freight, local crew, and setup, holding the same standard wherever the show shoots.
Maintain consistency across geographies so that every recording, wherever it happens, looks and sounds like DOAC.
5. Post-Production Craft
Bring proficient-to-expert post skills across video editing, sound mixing, and Photoshop, to inform capture decisions upstream and to execute when needed.
Capture for the edit, shooting and recording with a deep understanding of how material is cut, graded, and mixed downstream.
Partner with Post to close the loop between capture and delivery, eliminating problems at source rather than fixing them in the edit.
6. Details, Marginal Gains & Continuous Improvement
Obsess over the 1%, committing to marginal gains in image, sound, setup, and workflow every single week.
Own the technical setup, evolving the camera, switching, and sound systems, tools, and infrastructure at the capture level.
Introduce and evaluate new technologies, including AI tools, to raise capture quality and speed, and contribute to DOAC’s production experimentation engine.
7. Partnership & Operating Cadence
Partner with the Head of Production & Production Manager. They own logistics, budget, and coordination; the Video Producer owns the technical craft and the capture itself.
Operate inside the production plan, delivering flawless capture against the schedule, crew, and resources the production team sets, and flagging technical needs and risks early.
Hybrid technical mastery: Genuine craft as a DP and operator, a Technical Director who can run a live multi-camera switcher, and an audio mixer who can run sound recording, all in one person.
Proficient in Post-Production across video editing, sound mixing, and Photoshop, to inform capture decisions upstream and fill in gaps in edits, thumbnail designs, and supporting assets as needed.
Editorial and emotional intelligence: Exceptional discretion, able to read the room and operate invisibly inside sensitive, high-trust conversations.
Detail and follow-through: Obsessive about the small things and driven by a marginal-gains mindset, never satisfied with “good enough.”
Decision velocity under pressure: Makes the right technical call fast, in the moment, calmly and reliably in a zero-error environment.
Craft leadership: Builds, directs, and holds a freelance crew to the standard, including in markets the team has never worked in before.
A seasoned multi-camera technical operator with minimum 5 years experience — a true DP, Technical Director, and sound mixer hybrid — with demonstrated experience capturing at DOAC’s technical complexity, including multi-camera, live switching, ISO records, multi-format delivery, and broadcast-grade sound.
Proven on the road, building and directing crews in unfamiliar markets and managing the realities of international capture, including kit travel, freight, local crew, and time zones.
Proficient-to-expert in post-production, covering video editing, sound mixing, and Photoshop.
Discreet, unflappable, and detail-obsessed, with the emotional intelligence to protect the intimacy of a sensitive recording.
Energised by a fast-paced, high-expectation, in-person environment and willing to travel globally with the show.
