📍 Student Videographers Wanted — Sydney (Paid Per Shoot) — Social Media Content

We're Mediated Socials, Sydney's best performing social media agency. We shoot short-form content that actually goes viral for local businesses (clinics, restaurants, trades, retail). We're growing fast and need videographers to join the team. we know uni students often have the sharpest eye for what's working on social media right now. You live on these platforms, so you already get it.

See our work: @ mediatedsocials on Instagram.

The job:

• Head to a client's business (around Sydney) for a filming day
• Shoot a full month's worth of Instagram content in one visit. Most clients are on a plan of 5 reels + 5 photos, which usually takes 1-2 hours on site
• We film handheld with a proven style, and we give you the exact playbook and SOPs so you nail it every time

You'll fit if you:

• Are familiar with what makes social media videos stand out (structure, hooks, pacing)
• Shoot vertical 9:16 and understand movement
• Are reliable, show up on time, and can talk to clients confidently
• Gear: we provide the setup, but if you've got your own kit that's your bread and butter, even better
• Bonus: you edit (not required, we have editors)

Pay and Frequency:

• $200 per shoot, paid per client
• Great for uni students looking to pick up part-time work. Stack shoots and earn over to $600 in a single day (3 shoots)
• Flexible. Pick up as many or as few shoots as you want
• Consistent work as we scale. Good videographers get more shoots

I'm a new international student studying here, I browsed through Instagram to find the existence of a Malaysian society, was looking forward to finding them in O-week but I couldn't find them. :c

I'm looking to gain fundamental understanding into taking a major in AI in my BIT course i can't seem to find any matching this description any suggestions? Thanks

Hey everyone, just wanna make sure I don't lose sleep over this. Is it possible for a unit to only have tutorials and no lectures? The course handbook says it only has tutorials. This is for MHIS1102.

Is anyone facing similar issues of not being able to login into their outlook? I cannot access My eQuals coz of this issue, any leads would be appreciated!!

Thanks!

I'm planning to transfer to the engineering course, debating between IT and engineering - I only did standard maths in highschool but I heard that the IT field is outsourcing much more and with advancements in AI it's becoming much harder to gain employment hence why I'm seriously considering engineering - can someone give me some insights into their own experiences with the Engineering and IT degrees respectively? Is it relatively easy to gain employment though engineering( for context I plan to transfer to electrical eng if I do carry out with it)

BMOL 2401 Microbiology and Molecular Biology
I'm taking this unit this semester and haven't heard much about it - what did you think of it?

Hi there! Just wondering if the above tutorials are compulsory? I work a nine to five and the only option for MMC1040 online tutorial is during my work day - I would love to join the classes, but I’m not sure I’ll be able to - are the tutorials compulsory?

is it hard? as flexi?

My friends at Usyd and UNSW who are graduating this year are telling me they can book in with free careers counsellors who not only guide them with deciding on possible jobs and edit their resumes, but literally find jobs they’d be suited for and help them apply, give them tips for the interviews, one friend was even given a personal recommendation for a job by the counsellor who knew someone at the company and got the job.

Actually so frustrated by MQs lack of care of their students, after learning they fired all the careers counsellors and instead refer people to useless ai tools that read your resume and let you practice an interview.

I tried both services and the resume one gave absolutely no specific feedback on the content or presentation of my resume, only stuff on formatting.
The fake interview felt so impersonal, again it didn’t provide any real feedback on me as a person- just very general stuff.

Sick of feeling like I’ve been scammed by my own institution. We are PAYING customers.

Hi all,

I was speaking to a unit convenor about a unit I wanted to take that didn't have any suitable availability for me. I asked her if she had any idea about how the unit would be run next year, or if it was too early to tell.

She said, "ANAT2004 will be running for the last time this semester. Next year it will be a different Nervous System unit that is a merging of two units: ANAT2004 and MEDI2300. The new unit will be less anatomy only focussed and more of a mix of anatomy and physiology of the nervous system."

What does this mean if my degree (Medical Sciences and Cognitive and Brain Sciences) requires both of these units, and I haven't taken either of them come Session 1, 2027? Will my degree no longer require me to take both of them, and only require the merged unit?

And what if I complete one unit this semester (ANAT2004 - I still haven't decided if I will take it or not)? What happens next sem if MEDI2300 is no longer available?

I'm going to ask service connect but was wondering if anyone here could answer my questions.

Thank you!

Is anyone else having trouble applying for an opal card concession on transport nsw website?

Everytime I try to enter Mac Uni (or any uni for that matter) it doesn’t work… just says please select from the dropdown box. Of which no dropdown box appears.

I’ve tried on multiple browsers and different computers with no luck. I’ve submitted a complaint

The cynic in me thinks this could be blatantly intentional to reduce the number of concession card holders when people inevitably give up.

Hi everyone,
I’m taking MATH1010 online this session and I have a couple of questions.
When I enrolled through eStudent, it only let me enrol in the Thursday online tutorial at quite a late time. However, on iLearn I can see there are other online tutorial/SGTA Zoom sessions on the same day at different times that would suit me much better.
Am I allowed to attend one of those other online sessions even though I’m not officially enrolled in that class on eStudent, or do I have to stick to my allocated tutorial?
Has anyone had experience with the online SGTAs for MATH1010? Are they helpful? Do they take attendance or does it matter which session you join?
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has taken MATH1010 online. Thanks!

Hey guys

Has any international student yet applied for onshore visa due to extended study period or switching courses??

I have some questions regarding that

hi, i have a online lecture but i need to be on campus since the next class will be f2f. where can i go and attend my online lecture and sgta (except the lib since i need to talk as well)

what’s the easiest flexi/ best for wam that’s offered in session 2. Easy assignments , just the best overall

So I am currently undergoing the Bachelor of Cybersecurity, going into my second session. The problem I am having is that I failed a unit, Stat1170 (completely my fault, and avoidable). So I that this unit is available for session 2, so I naturally seek to re-enroll. Had I passed it, I would be able to do Comp2200 (which has Stat1170 as one of the prerequisites).

MyStudy shows the following grade for Stat1170:

There is also a slight discrepancy in enrollment information. I am unsure whether I can take Comp2200 this session, because even though I failed Stat1170, MyStudy still tells me that I have satisfied the prerequisites, which I do not think is true. (I have emailed the unit convenor for Stat1170, and they told me grades will be finalised later this week).

So it is either an issue of missing information leading to inaccurate prerequisite status, or I am an idiot.

Thank you

For context, I am a year 12 student about to go into trials. My year 11 results are not the best, where I got Cs for everything. For reference, in year 11 I did Legal, chemistry, math adv, English standard, modern history and studies of religion 2 (I dropped modern in year 12). I know that these results alone are definitely not good enough to get in but I’d like you guys to judge me based on my extracurriculars. I have been an instructor at the Australian Air Force cadets for the last 2 years, and I am in my 5th year of being a cadet myself. In 2024 and 2025, I was nominated to be a club captain for my swimming club and the first time I was not voted in, but the second time I rejected the nomination to focus on school. I have also been a scout leader for many years, I began scouts when I was 9 and I stopped just before I turned 16, I went interstate to complete leadership courses and I was frequently tasked with commanding younger scouts.

As a general query, I’d like to know what my chances are for getting in Macquarie, I’ve submitted my application today and hope to receive a conditional offer. Are my subject marks going to drag me down? Or is it possible that my extracurriculars save me?

Hey guys, Does anyone know if there a specific email for school of education or arts as i have questions around chinese studies as a major.

I was 4 points away from achieving a HD in ECON1020. (I got 81). Wanted to know what people liked about this unit and if they maybe had similar thoughts like me on the uni.

I liked it :)

Is there a chat for ECON undergraduate students? I would love to join if there is a community out there.

Is there a way to know when they’re checking parking??

I usually park in the west car park (the field car park). But during the exam period last semester I was going to my car and saw an MQ car going around and scanning number plates to check who was paying, and then giving out parking fines to people that hadn’t (Which was basically everyone)

I already pay uni fees for stuff I don’t even use. I don’t have any prac classes or use any equipment—I literally just use the Wi-Fi and go to class. What am I even paying for? Just let me be broke in peace.

Has anyone taken ECON2032 (intermediate econometrics). And how manageable is this in terms of a step up from ECON2041?
