We are hiring one video editor to own the edit on two growing accounts: a high-energy dance brand and a personal lifestyle brand, across Instagram and YouTube. There is a deep backlog of footage waiting for the right pair of hands.
One project is one long-form video (8 to 15 min) together with its short-form set: the thumbnail, and 5 to 10 short-form options cut from the master, with captions and on-screen text. The long-form and its short forms count as one project. We start at 1 video a month while we build the cadence together, with room to grow to 4 videos a month as the brand scales.
Every project arrives as a written brief in Notion with the clips, the music, and timestamps on every clip line. We supply all the footage.
We are looking for someone with creative insight who connects to the brand. Someone who watches the footage and knows what the edit is meant to make people feel, then builds it: a mood, a build, and a story that holds someone who never dances. Dance sits at the center of it, but the references we love come from film, music videos and disco dance parties. If your instinct is to make people feel something, there is room to do that here.
One way we describe it: a dance class edited like a vlog. Animations, sounds, effects. Someone who is not learning the choreo could still watch it and stay interested, and someone who is learning stays engaged.
References we love: Best Dressed, Justine's Camera Roll, Mai Pham.
Steady, long-term work, a growing public archive of edits under your name, and a direct line to the founder instead of a chain of approvals.
In your application, tell us your editing style and the vision you would bring to this kind of content. We want to know how you see it.
Responsibilities
- Own one project a month: the long-form video, plus 5 to 10 short-form options cut from it
- Cut on the beat. Let the music carry the edit
- Land a hook in the first 3 seconds and keep the pacing tight
- Add captions, on-screen text, light sound design and tasteful effects
- Design the thumbnail
- Follow the brief exactly, and ask in the card when a line is unclear
- Check your work against our Definition of Done before you submit it
- Log each new version as a subtask on the Notion card, and upload the final to the shared Drive folder
- Send the export plus the project file, on schedule
Requirements
- Strong Reels, Shorts or TikTok portfolio (dance, movement, music, film or lifestyle)
- CapCut is preferred. If you are stronger in another program, you are welcome to use it. What matters is that the work is easy for us to review: the project and every version shared and linked on the card
- Beat-synced editing, sound design, captions and color grading
- Your own laptop and software, reliable internet, clear English communication
- You can work from a written brief and ask questions early instead of guessing
Nice to have
- A real feel for film and music videos
- A love of dance, disco and dance parties
- An eye for mood, color and visual storytelling
- Basic motion graphics (animated text, transitions)
To apply: Portfolio link with your best 3 edits, your rate, your weekly availability, and a short note on your editing style and the vision you would bring to this kind of content.
