Recital Photography & Videography | Clarendon Hills, IL | Dec 6th - 2PM to 5PM

American Music Institute (AMI) is looking for volunteer support from an experienced photographer and/or videographer to document one of our upcoming student recitals.

Our recitals are important opportunities to celebrate our students' musical progress, dedication, and achievements. We want to capture these special moments through high-quality photography and video that showcase the talent of our students, the experience of live music, and the sense of community that makes AMI special.

Currently, we need additional support to professionally document these events and create a collection of visual content for our website, social media platforms, newsletters, and future marketing initiatives. Our marketing team manages multiple programs and responsibilities, so having a volunteer with photography and videography experience would allow us to capture more meaningful content while focusing on event coordination.

We are looking for someone who can help us photograph student performances, record selected performances, capture candid moments, and create engaging visual content that we can share with our community and use to promote AMI's music education programs.

This collaboration would help us preserve these special memories while strengthening our visual storytelling and online presence.

By the end of this project, we would like to have a collection of high-quality photographs and video footage documenting AMI's student recital.

The volunteer will help us create the following deliverables:

Photography: A selection of edited, high-resolution photographs capturing student performances, individual and group photos, faculty, audience interactions, and candid moments throughout the event.

Performance Videos: Video recordings of selected student performances, with clear audio and stable footage.

Organized Digital Assets: All final photos and videos organized and delivered digitally to the AMI marketing team for future use.

Success would mean having professional visual content that captures the experience and achievements of our students, celebrates their musical development, and allows us to share the recital with our broader community.

These materials will also help AMI strengthen its online presence, promote its music education programs, and build a library of authentic content for future marketing and communications initiatives.
