Love Kids? Love Basketball Games and Talent Shows? Then we need you!
We are looking for someone to capture various segments of the 2025 Ruey Classic, which is scheduled for Saturday, June 21st from 12:30pm to 4:30pm, in video.
The Ruey Classic is an annual memorial basketball game which honors the life and memory of SoulPhamm’s Co-Founder, Coach Luis Herrera who passed away suddenly in 2021. This year's event will be more somber, as we will be remembering our organization's mascot (Ms. Chaka) and one of our basketball players (Andrew #38) who passed away this season. For more information on SoulPhamm, please visit our website at www.soulphamm.org.
The event will be held in downtown Newark, New Jersey and includes a basketball game and a "talent segment" which features our performing art groups.
The videographer can elect to capture any of the following:
- The basketball game itself
- The majorette dance team's halftime performance (they also do "stands" throughout the game).
- The cheerleading team's halftime performance (they also do "cheers" throughout the game).
Despite the somber overtone, the goal this year is to keep it light (and funny) as possible.
We post the resulting videos (with credit to the videographer) on our website and social media channels (Tik Tok, YouTube, Instagram, Facebook). In addition to adding the finished product to your own portfolio, we would be proud to serve as a professional reference for you. Ideally, the finished product would be turned around within two months - before we begin our next season at the end of August.
A portfolio which shows samples of videos you’ve done in the past would be helpful but is not required.
Thank you for your interest!
No phone calls please.

Mission Statement
Our mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of young people by providing unique artistic and athletic experiences and performances, and to assist them in achieving the highest standards of professionalism through the development of discipline, skill, confidence, cooperation, leadership, responsibility and character.
Description
Our vision is to promote virtue, equity, unity, justice, faith, charity and a sense of common purpose and brotherhood among all people with an emphasis on the development and advancement of young people through education, athletics, service and the arts.
SoulPhamm was incorporated as a nonprofit organization in the state of New Jersey on June 25, 2021 and is the "birth-child" of Coach Luis ("Lou") and Dr. Leisa Herrera ("Mz. Doc"). The organization exists to provide training to young people in a variety of sports and performing arts and unique opportunities to display those talents through competition and performance. By integrating mentoring, life skills, opportunities for community service and academic enrichment to the athletic/artistic program, we help make our scholar-athletes as well-rounded as possible, capable of meeting and overcoming any challenges they are faced with. Although Coach Lou passed away suddenly in January 2021, the official launch of SoulPhamm was held on June 26, 2021, which coincided with his birthday weekend. SoulPhamm will recognize its own founding, as well as the achievements of our young people every year on the fourth Saturday of June, as a tribute to the life and legacy of Coach Lou.
