Job Description

Responsibilities

  • Edit customer case studies, sit-down interviews, and product demos into polished, story-driven films.
  • Own post-production end to end: assembly, story structure, pacing, sound design, and color.
  • Shoot when needed, on location and in studio, as a hybrid shooter-editor.
  • Color grade footage to a clean, cinematic standard inside DaVinci Resolve.
  • Collaborate on creative direction and bring your own ideas, not just execute a brief.

Requirements

  • A strong portfolio of larger, high-quality projects. We want to see range across long-form and narrative work, not only social edits.
  • Real editing talent with excellent instincts for pacing, story, and audio.
  • Experience in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, and a willingness to edit in DaVinci Resolve (we standardize on it for color and team collaboration).
  • The ability to take a project from footage to finish with minimal hand-holding.
  • Comfortable being a shooter as well as an editor. This is a strong plus, not a hard requirement.

Preferred

  • Hands-on experience shooting with Sony FX3.
  • Color grading in S-Log3 / S-Gamut3.Cine inside DaVinci Resolve.
  • Motion graphics and animation chops (helpful, not required).
  • 3D ability in Blender for custom renders. This would be a real differentiator for us, though it is not necessary.
