Flashback Offers Paid Six-Month Photography Gig in Hong Kong

Flashback, the firm responsible for the nostalgic One35 V2 digital camera, is on the lookout for a photographer or content creator to join their Hong Kong team for a period of three to six months. This paid position includes coverage for flights and accommodation. The selected candidate will be tasked with documenting Hong Kong while producing content for the brand, which encompasses travel, photo shoots, and marketing campaigns. Flashback moved its operations to Hong Kong to be nearer to its Shenzhen production facility, reinforcing the city’s significance in its brand story. The One35 V2 is a 13-megapixel camera designed to replicate disposable film cameras, featuring an optical viewfinder, mechanical winding dial, and Xenon flash, with 27-frame rolls and an optional 24-hour developing wait via the companion app. This unique role aligns with a growing trend of brands engaging in creative hiring strategies; earlier this year, Icelandair attracted 127,642 entries from 178 countries by searching for the 'world's worst photographer,' with winner Blanche Mortemard receiving a 10-day trip and $50,000. Flashback’s position is longer in duration and requires a talented photographer. Interested applicants can apply through an online form, which requests a one-minute introduction, work samples, and a portfolio link. No salary or application deadline has been provided.
