JOB OVERVIEW

I am looking to hire two full time video editors to join our team at ---------- .

We do company history documentaries in podcast and YouTube format. You will be assigned one of our company history audios and required to complete all the video editing for the full documentary.

You can see our current episodes to learn the style we are after here:

----------

As you will see in our videos we focus on vintage footage, short video clip interviews, quotes, animations, text overlays and AI renderings to help fill gaps.

I am seeking video editors who can do two things really well:

1. Research online for vintage/archival/news photos and video samples about the people who built the companies we cover.

2. Edit the photos and video together to match the audio story, including media, transitions, text overlays, AI, icons, graphics, etc.

If you have experience with documentary video editing I would love to hear from you.

HOW TO APPLY: Send through links to portfolio videos you have edited, ideally documentary videos, long form.

I will select the best applicants to complete a PAID test video edit of 1-2 minutes long, at a rate of $5 per hour.

Here are instructions for the test: ----------

If you are a good fit after the test, you will keep working for us to complete the documentary and move on to a full time role at $750 a month.
