We are an innovative visual content team committed to delivering engaging, high-impact video content across digital and social platforms. Our visual group prioritizes clear storytelling, strong visual pacing, and high production value, offering creative editors a collaborative environment to showcase their skills on ongoing projects.

ROLE PROFILE

We are seeking an editorially sharp, detail-oriented Video Editor to assemble and polish engaging video assets. In this project-based role, you will transform raw footage into sleek, high-performing 2-minute videos tailored for online audiences, ensuring smooth transitions, clean audio, and brand-consistent visual styling.

CORE RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Edit and assemble raw video and audio assets into completed, high-quality 2-minute final cuts.

  • Apply basic color correction, audio leveling, noise reduction, and sound design to ensure clear quality.

  • Integrate text overlays, captions, lower thirds, logos, and motion graphics according to project guidelines.

  • Select and layer background music and sound effects to match the tone, mood, and pacing of the video.

  • Revise edits based on creative feedback while adhering to project turnaround deadlines.

  • Export and deliver final video files in optimized aspect ratios and formats for intended platforms.

CANDIDATE QUALIFICATIONS

  • Editing Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating proficiency in short-form video editing (YouTube, social media, promo, or corporate content).

  • Software Proficiency: Expertise with professional video editing software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut Pro).

  • Visual Pacing: Deep understanding of narrative flow, visual hooks, frame transitions, and timing.

  • Technical Setup: Access to a reliable, high-performance editing setup and stable internet for uploading video files.

  • Communication: Ability to follow detailed creative briefs, accept constructive feedback, and communicate project status clearly.

PREFERRED SKILLS

  • Experience creating dynamic motion graphics using Adobe After Effects.

  • Knowledge of platform-specific formatting trends (e.g., YouTube, Instagram Reels, TikTok, LinkedIn).

COMPENSATION & DETAILS

  • Deliverable Rate: $20.00 per completed and approved 2-minute video.

  • Flexibility: Fully remote position with flexible working hours based on project availability.

HOW TO APPLY

Ready to show us your creative edge? We want to see how you tell a story visually! Submit your resume, a brief intro sharing your favorite editing software, and a link to your online portfolio, demo reel, or best short-form video samples showing off your pacing and style.
