At Shinesty, our mission is to force the world to take itself less seriously. We make people laugh first and sell second. Our mothers don’t always approve of what we do, but the millions of people we’ve entertained over the years do.

This role is the connective tissue between pre-production logistics and on-set execution: keeping everything organized, prepped, and moving so photo and video shoots run smoothly.
