JOB OVERVIEW

About Us:
We run Port Lowdown, a fast-growing US-based digital media company. We help independent cruisers navigate global itineraries with zero friction. Having documented over 150 cruise ports, we are building a highly searchable video library that serves a passionate community of travelers. We operate with a culture of autonomy, extreme organization, and mutual respect. We are looking for a long-term team member to grow with us, starting part-time with a clear pathway to full-time.

The Role:
You will be working directly with our Post-Production Director, Troy. You will take over the assembly and initial cut phases of our flagship port guides.

This is not a gig where you have to organize a messy hard drive. You will receive a meticulously packaged Premiere Pro project file complete with proxies, color-coded pancake timelines, isolated audio tracks, pre-built stringouts, and a detailed voiceover transcript with director's notes. Your job is to take these organized ingredients and build compelling, fast-paced, high-retention travel episodes.

Key Responsibilities:

Build the "Hero" Hook: Craft dynamic, 60–90 second opening montages using our curated top 5% clips, archival "authority" footage, and standard MOGRT transition templates.

Navigate Pancake Timelines: Work from chronological stringouts utilizing our "Red Tag" chapter marker system on V2 to efficiently pull selects down to your master timeline.

Audio Balancing: Loosely edit the T1 narration track head-to-tail, mixing it with background music and preserving specific natural ambient sounds using J and L cuts and audio ducking.

Integrate Promos: Seamlessly drop in commercial assets (QR codes, PDF guide mockups) into mid-roll sections from dedicated project bins (e.g., 06_PROMOS_AND_CTAS).

Required Technical Mastery:

Premiere Pro Native: Highly proficient. (DaVinci Resolve familiarity is a bonus, but Premiere is our engine).

Proxy Workflow Expert: You must completely understand how to download a transfer folder, offline high-res media, attach local proxies, and work with the "Toggle Proxies" workflow to maintain our 4K (3840x2160) Rec. 2100 HLG / 29.97fps sequence settings.

File Management Discipline: You respect a rigid bin structure and understand why you only upload a newly versioned .prproj file back to our shared drive, rather than uploading massive media files.

VFR Handling: Knowledge of syncing and managing Variable Frame Rate screen recordings to avoid audio drift.

To Apply, You Must Follow These Exact Steps:

1. When you click apply, make the subject line of your message: 'Port Lowdown Editor: [Your Favorite Color]
2. Provide a link to ONE video you edited that best demonstrates your ability to hold viewer retention. Do not link a generic portfolio.
3. Write a brief paragraph explaining why you want to work on travel/cruise content specifically.
4. In one sentence, explain why working with proxies is crucial for a remote Premiere Pro workflow.

Note: Any application that does not follow these 4 steps perfectly will be immediately deleted without review.
