WANTED: Nationwide university screening day coordinator
To start 15th August for 10 weeks
There is a small wage available for this role
We’re delighted that thanks to a generous grant we’re able to offer an extremely rare paid position here at JDI HQ!
As part of our open source distribution model we’ll be coordinating a Just Do It Nationwide Screening Day on Tuesday 18th October 2011. Groups at universities and sixth-form colleges across the country will show the film en masse for free. Screenings will be open to the public. This is a great opportunity to ensure that students and the local public get a chance to see the film with the full cinematic experience and get plugged in straight away to the local student groups working on the issues. At Just Do It HQ, our goal is have as many new people see the film in this single day as had over the course of the entire theatrical release.
