Who We Are
Sports Broadcast Solutions, or SBS for short, is a Broadcasting Network for Everyone. We offer live broadcasts for the non-professional athlete. We film in 720P HD, 1080P HD, and 4K. We offer everything from live score banners and motion graphics to pregame interviews, play-by-play commentary, live stats, and much, much more. We also offer professional sports uploads. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2WRNNyP3pT4
What the Role Entails
SBS is currently looking for freelance and pro bono play-by-play commentators, color commentators, and field reporters. Listed below are some of the main job responsibilities:
- Someone who can respond quickly to mass Blind Carbon Copy emails. If we have to constantly text you, we perceive that to mean you're not really interested in on-air responsibilities at SBS and only interested in a paycheck.
- Passion for the product. If you're only looking into making some money and don't care about creating a meaningful experience for the players, viewers, or fans, please don't apply.
- Previous experience in play-by-play commentary, color commentary or field reporting, especially live sports, highly recommended but not required.
- Ability to memorize names and numbers.
- Has a field reporting, play-by-play commentary, or color commentary demo reel (YouTube link) on file.
- Understands that this isn't the Final Four or Frozen Four. If you only want to call live NCAA Division I games, this isn't a good fit for you.
- Understands that this is LIVE broadcasting.
- Enjoys non-professional sports broadcasts. We offer professional uploads (i.e. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LJDQeurUSJQ), but this position is primarily focused on our clients pertaining to travel baseball, high school athletics, college athletics, AAU basketball, Pop Warner football, travel hockey, etc.
- If you want to edit professional sports videos for us, we offer remote work. Search "Kirby Puckett Sports Broadcast Solutions" on YouTube.
- Entry-level candidates welcome.
- Bachelor's degree highly recommended in Video Production, Broadcast Journalism, or related major.
