Video Editor — Short-Form, Commercial & Long-Form
Company: Odd Sox
Odd Sox is expanding our video editing team and looking for talented editors across several editing styles.
Our highest priority is finding a strong Short-Form / Social Video Editor who can work with us consistently on daily content. We are also interested in building relationships with editors who specialize in commercial/branded content and long-form storytelling.
You do not need to specialize in every category.
When applying, tell us which editing category best represents your strongest work.
EDITOR TYPES WE’RE LOOKING FOR
1. Short-Form / Social Video Editor — HIGHEST PRIORITY
This is our primary need and is intended to become a consistent, full-time editing position.
You’ll work on content for platforms such as Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and other social channels.
We’re looking for someone who understands:
* Strong hooks and opening seconds
* Fast, intentional pacing
* Music and sound design
* Captions and on-screen graphics
* Comedy and timing
* Social-first storytelling
* Retention-focused editing
* Current editing styles and trends
* Turning raw ideas into entertaining short-form content
* Creating multiple pieces of content consistently
We have videos that need to be edited daily, so consistency, communication, organization, and reliability are extremely important.
2. Commercial / Branded Content Editor
We’re also looking for editors capable of producing polished campaign and commercial work.
This may include:
* Brand commercials
* Product campaigns
* Collaboration launches
* Lifestyle videos
* Hero campaign films
* Event recaps
* Cinematic branded content
* Social campaign cutdowns
Strong storytelling, pacing, music selection, sound design, visual polish, and attention to brand/product details are important.
These projects may be assigned on a freelance/project basis.
3. Long-Form / Podcast / Documentary Editor
We’re also interested in editors who specialize in longer-form storytelling.
Projects may include:
* Podcasts
* Interviews
* Behind-the-scenes content
* Mini-documentaries
* YouTube content
* Brand stories
* Long-form campaign content
We’re looking for editors who understand how to build a story, maintain pacing, identify strong moments, and keep longer content engaging.
These projects may be assigned on a freelance/project basis.
HOW OUR WORKFLOW WORKS
Our goal is to give editors everything they need to succeed.
Projects will be organized before they are assigned, including footage, assets, references, project information, and creative direction.
We’re looking for editors who are excellent at following creative direction while still bringing their own ideas to the edit.
If you see an opportunity to improve pacing, storytelling, music, sound design, transitions, graphics, or the overall video, we want you to bring those ideas forward.
We don’t want someone who simply follows instructions mechanically. We want editors who understand the direction and then use their editing ability to make the final video even better.
WHAT WE’RE LOOKING FOR
* Strong editing portfolio
* Excellent sense of pacing and storytelling
* Strong music selection and sound design
* Attention to detail
* Ability to follow references and creative direction
* Ability to contribute creative ideas
* Reliable communication
* Ability to meet agreed-upon deadlines
* Comfortable receiving and completing revisions
* Consistent quality across projects
* Experience with branded, social, entertainment, fashion, lifestyle, sports, or consumer-product content is a plus
We do not require a specific editing program. Use the professional software that allows you to produce your best work.
