Arkansas State Mid-South is hiring : Creative Media Specialist in Little Rock

Summary :

Great visual storytelling starts with instinct—the kind that knows when to press record, where to position the light and how to frame a moment that matters. This role is built for someone who can shoot with purpose, edit with style and design with intention—bringing bold ideas to life across mediums.
