About the Channel
We run a YouTube channel that tells mythology stories (Greek, Norse, Egyptian, and more) in an animated format.

Edit footage, sync visuals to narration, and add music and sound effects
Add subtitles, on-screen text, and maps or graphics where needed
Make revisions based on feedback
Deliver on agreed deadlines
Requirements
Proven experience animating or editing story-driven content, ideally mythology, history, or folklore
A portfolio or links showing finished work (YouTube links preferred)
Experience producing long-form videos (30+ minutes)
Strong storytelling sense and pacing
Proficiency in tools such as After Effects, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Blender, Toon Boom, or similar (tell us what you use)
A track record of meeting deadlines
Good written English and responsiveness (reply within [X] hours)
Nice to Have
Experience with 2D illustrated or motion-graphics style animation
Ability to create or source consistent art styles
Knowledge of YouTube retention and editing best practices
Own a reliable computer and internet connection
