* Familiarity with reviewing advertising metrics and using performance data to guide creative decisions.
* Experience with color correction, audio cleanup, motion tracking, masking, and basic visual effects.

### What Success Looks Like

A successful editor in this role can take raw footage and independently develop several strong advertising variations. Their edits capture attention within the first few seconds, clearly communicate the offer, maintain viewer interest, and match the client’s brand.

The ideal candidate combines technical editing ability with an understanding of what makes short-form advertising content perform.
