Job Description

I’m looking for a video editor who sees editing as storytelling, not just retention chasing. If your style is built around copying trends or over-editing everything, this won’t be the right fit. I care about pacing, tone, and intention. I want videos that feel real and thoughtfully put together. I’ve worked as an editor myself, so I understand the time and skill this takes. I respect the craft and I want to make sure i treat you guys fairly.

What You’ll Be Editing:

  • video essays (normally talking about super heros,games and film/tv)

  • Copy-paste trend editing
  • Overstimulating, effect-heavy videos
  • Editors who rely on templates

I want to be clear:

I’m early in building this, so I can’t offer high upfront rates yet.

But there is real upside here.As the channel grows the pay will scale,Bonuses and higher rates will be introduced and it will be a Long-term position for the right person

I’m not looking to keep someone at $25. I’m looking to grow with you and make sure everyone is compesated fairly

If you’re the right fit:

  • Consistent work
  • Creative input
  • No ceiling on growth as the channel scales

To Apply:

Send:

1. 2–3 edits you’re proud of
