Short-Form Video Editor (Premiere Pro + After Effects, or DaVinci Resolve),
Full-Time Remote, UK Agency
About Us
We're a London-based creative content consultancy producing short-form
social content for a small portfolio of growing brands. Tight team, fast
pace, no bureaucracy. Strict NDA on client names.
The Role
You'll edit 10 to 20 short-form pieces per week in Premiere Pro with After
Effects, or DaVinci Resolve with Fusion — your call, work in whichever you
ship fastest in. Footage and assets are delivered to you via
Google Drive. You cut, caption, motion-design, sound-design, colour, and
export to spec. We review, you revise, we ship.
What you'll be editing (three repeating formats)
1) Podcast clips, talking-head with motion design
60 to 90 second vertical cuts pulled from long-form podcast recordings.
Two-camera setup, separate audio tracks. Punchy hooks in the first 3
seconds, animated captions on-brand, lower thirds, light motion graphics
(kinetic type, callouts, simple transitions). Sometimes paired with a
matching square carousel for LinkedIn (5 to 8 slides in After Effects
or Resolve Fusion, exported as PNGs or 1x1 video).
2) Talking-head videos with supplied B-roll
30 to 90 second vertical or square edits where we send you the A-roll
(presenter to camera) and a B-roll package. You cut the talking head
tightly, motivate B-roll insertions, add captions, light sound design,
colour-match A and B-roll. No need to source footage — it's all supplied.
3) Static and animated carousels (occasional)
LinkedIn and Instagram square carousels built from supplied copy and
brand templates. 5 to 10 slides. Sometimes a short animated version for
the lead slide.
