JOB OVERVIEW


Short-Form Video Editor — Real Estate, Restaurant & Lifestyle Content

Job Type: Part-Time / Long-Term
Work Setup: Remote
Software: DaVinci Resolve

About the Role

I’m looking for a skilled, reliable short-form video editor to join my team on a long-term basis.

I manage social media and content for multiple businesses, so you’ll be editing a variety of content, primarily real estate, restaurant, lifestyle, and event videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.

We typically produce 70–90 short-form videos per month, so I’m looking for someone who can work quickly and efficiently while maintaining consistent quality.

Content You'll Edit

* Real estate property tours
* Day-in-the-life and lifestyle videos
* Real estate educational content
* Talking-head videos
* Restaurant and food content
* Event/nightlife content
* Behind-the-scenes content
* Promotional/social media videos

Responsibilities

* Edit engaging short-form videos for social media
* Create accurate, clean, and well-designed subtitles
* Select the strongest clips and create strong pacing
* Add music, sound effects, transitions, and graphics when appropriate
* Perform color correction and color grading
* Optimize edits for retention and social media
* Organize footage, project files, and exports properly
* Make revisions quickly and accurately
* Communicate clearly about deadlines, feedback, and questions

Requirements

* Strong short-form video editing experience
* Proficiency in DaVinci Resolve**
* Good understanding of pacing, storytelling, and social media
* Strong English comprehension and writing skills
* Experience with subtitles/captions
* Knowledge of color correction and grading
* Fast, efficient workflow
* Highly organized and detail-oriented
* Reliable and responsive communication
* Able to take direction while also making smart creative decisions

Bonus: Experience with real estate, restaurant/food, lifestyle, or event content; motion graphics and sound design experience.

Who I'm Looking For

I’m not looking for someone who simply follows instructions and cuts footage. I want an editor who can watch footage, understand the story, and make creative decisions that improve the final video.

The ideal person is organized, communicative, efficient, and interested in building a long-term working relationship. As the business grows, there will be opportunities for more consistent work and responsibility.

How to Apply

Please send:

1. Your portfolio/reel, with an emphasis on short-form content
2. 2–3 examples of your best edits
3. Your experience with DaVinci Resolve
4. Your hourly or monthly rate
5. Typical turnaround time for a 30–60 second video
6. Your availability
7. What do you think makes someone stop scrolling and watch a short-form video?

Please don't send only a generic portfolio. I want to see examples that demonstrate your ability to create engaging, social-media-focused content.

If you're an editor who is looking for consistent, long-term work and wants to grow with a creative business, I'd love to hear from you.
