About Us
We are Hockey Rejects, a fast-growing hockey comedy brand creating cinematic, vertical skits and short-form content for Instagram, TikTok,
Our videos are comedy-focused and rely heavily on timing, pacing, music, sound effects, reaction shots and storytelling.
We are looking for someone who wants to become our long-term editor, not someone looking for a one-time freelance project.
If you're passionate about editing and want to grow with a creator brand, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Edit
Most of your work will be cinematic comedy skits.
Typical video length:
30–90 seconds
Occasionally you'll also edit:
Meme videos
Short comedy clips
Promotional videos
What Makes This Different
This is NOT a talking-head editing job.
You will NOT be editing:
Podcasts
Business coaching videos
Influencer-style videos
Generic TikTok captions
Instead, you'll be editing scripted comedy.
The timing of every cut matters.
The sound effects matter.
The music matters.
The pacing matters.
If you enjoy comedy editing and cinematic storytelling, this job is for you.

This is paid work.
This is a long-term position with consistent monthly work.
As Hockey Rejects grows, there will be opportunities for increased hours and responsibilities. The workload will initially be based on our content schedule rather than a concrete fixed number of hours. We are currently producing approximately 12-15 cinematic comedy skits per month, with potential for additional editing work as the brand grows. Your responsibility would be to complete this frequency monthly (plus additional).
Thank you so much for your application and we look forward to working with you.
Best,
