JOB OVERVIEW

Hey there!

I am looking for a full-time video editor (40–45 hours per week) to help produce long-form, faceless YouTube documentary videos.

These videos are in the “old money / historical wealth” niche (Rockefeller, Vanderbilt, Gilded Age, etc.), and follow a cinematic, documentary-style format — not TikTok or fast-cut editing.

IMPORTANT — READ THIS FIRST

Please start your application with:

Your favorite animal + the word “DOCUMENTARY”

Applications that do not follow this will not be reviewed.

Example Channels (Style Reference):
----------
----------
----------

About The Role

This is NOT a fast-cut social media editing role.

You will be working on:

60–90 minute videos
Voiceover-driven storytelling
Heavy use of images + subtle motion (zoom, pan, etc.)
Background music layering
Clean, cinematic pacing

What You’ll Be Doing:
Editing long-form YouTube documentary videos
Syncing visuals to voiceover narration
Using images + light motion (Ken Burns style)
Adding background music appropriately
Maintaining pacing and viewer retention
Following a structured SOP (we provide full system)
What We’re Looking For

You MUST have experience with:

Faceless YouTube videos
Documentary-style editing
Long-form content (60+ minutes)
Using images as primary visuals
Clean, simple, professional editing

This Role Is NOT For You If You:
Primarily edit TikToks / Reels / Shorts
Use lots of flashy effects, ---------- s, or animations
Don’t have experience with long-form storytelling

Application Requirements

Please include:

Links to your recent work (VERY IMPORTANT)
Must be similar to faceless / documentary style
YouTube links preferred

If you don’t have similar work:
Share your closest related editing projects

TEST PROJECT (IMPORTANT)

If you pass the initial screening, we will ask you to complete a short test project:

This is how we evaluate:
editing style
pacing
attention to detail
