Who We Are
Hi! We’re The Heist, the motion design, live action, and post-production studio within Thinkingbox, the Brief-to-Built agency.
We’re a crew of directors, cinematographers, editors, designers, animators, and technologists making work that moves. Brand films. Broadcast spots. Social content. Experiential. Whatever the format, we bring craft, curiosity, and the right people to the table. Collaboration is real, feedback is open, and culture matters. We take the work seriously. Ourselves, a little less so.
The Opportunity
We’re looking for a Director of Photography / Post-Production Lead who can move comfortably from set to edit suite, helping shape how we shoot the work and how we finish it.
This is a hybrid live action and post-production role. You’ll serve as a hands-on cinematographer and camera operator for content productions while helping lead our editors and small post team. You do not need to be a commercial director. You do need a strong visual point of view, deep production instincts, and the ability to translate a creative idea into smart camera, lighting, crew, and post decisions.
You’ll partner with directors, creatives, producers, editors, and clients from pre-production through delivery, keeping the whole process connected and the craft bar high.
Equal Opportunity
At The Heist, we’re committed to building an inclusive crew where everyone feels valued, heard, and able to thrive. Diversity makes the work stronger. Different perspectives, experiences, and backgrounds lead to better ideas and better solutions. We welcome applicants of all races, ethnicities, genders, identities, abilities, ages, sexual orientations, and backgrounds. Your voice matters here.
To Apply
Thanks for your interest in joining the crew. Please send your resume and links to a portfolio or reel that show both your production and post-production experience. If your work leans more heavily toward cinematography, tell us how you’ve partnered with editors and post teams. If it leans toward post, show us what you can do behind the camera. We can’t respond to every submission, but we keep applications in our talent database for future opportunities.
