Hi! I'm Matt Miller, creator of Ditch That Textbook, one of the largest K–12 education brands in the world. Through keynote speaking, books, newsletters, online courses, and social media, I help hundreds of thousands of educators create better learning experiences for students.
Every year I speak at conferences around the world, publish multiple newsletters, create online courses, and produce hundreds of hours of educational content.
I'm looking for someone who can:
>> Transform keynote speeches, workshops, webinars, and podcasts into engaging short-form videos for Instagram, TikTok, YouTube Shorts,
>> Edit my talking-head videos and screen recordings into polished, scroll-stopping content with captions, jump cuts, zooms, graphics, and other engaging visual elements.
This is a position that starts as part-time but can easily grow into a full-time position as you earn my trust and create quality content within the timeline provided.
I want to grow my social media following on multiple channels through regular, engaging video content. I'll need help creating and posting the video, but I also want someone with a good eye for what catches people's attention -- and an ability to identify the best parts of longer videos to clip out for social media videos.
This is not just a video editing job. You'll become an important part of our content team and help bring ideas to life for hundreds of thousands of educators.
I'm looking for someone who can learn my editing style (and even improve on it), suggest their own improvements, identify great content, and require few revisions.
I like videos that feel modern, fast-paced, and polished—but not over-edited. I appreciate dynamic captions, subtle motion graphics, strategic zooms, occasional sound effects, and edits that keep viewers engaged without becoming distracting.
I am not looking for someone to wait for editing instructions. I want someone who watches my content and says:
>> "This 45-second section would make a fantastic Reel."
>> "This hook isn't strong enough."
>> "I think this version would perform better."
Must Have:
>> Excellent English
>> Short-form editing
>> Dynamic captions
>> Fast communication
>> Strong internet
You should be highly skilled in at least one professional editing platform (Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, Final Cut Pro, etc.) and willing to adapt to my workflow if needed.
Preferred:
>> Canva
>> Motion graphics
>> Educational content
>> Creator economy experience
What you'll get:
>> Long-term work with an established creator
>> A collaborative relationship where your ideas matter
>> Opportunities to grow into additional responsibilities over time
>> Flexible work schedule
>> The chance to help shape content seen by hundreds of thousands of educators around the world
In your application: Include work samples, a portfolio, etc. ... testimonials from previous clients, etc.
Compensation: Competitive and based on experience, portfolio quality, and the results of a paid editing test.
Bonus: If you can create eye-catching visual posts for Insta,
I'm not looking for someone who simply edits videos. I'm looking for someone who studies why people keep watching videos.
If you naturally notice pacing, hooks, storytelling, and audience retention—and you enjoy making videos more engaging—I would love to hear from you.
To show me you've read this entire post, begin your application with the words: Purple Pineapple. (Seriously. Just somewhere at the top of your application, write the words "Purple Pineapple" to show me your attention to detail.)
