You will need to film the entire hockey game, which will also be a live broadcast (one camera shoot) and transfer the footage for editing afterwards.
This is a paying gig.

- Take notes throughout the game when goals and other key moments occur and send those notes and footage to the editor
- Reliable car or willingness to take public transit and commitment for the game you are filming

Games are usually in the evenings on weekends with some weekday games and would require about 3-4 hours at the rink.
