From commercial brand shoots to corporate work, live events, and everything in between, you know how to capture a moment and then cut it into something people actually want to watch.

If you live in your camera and your timeline, and you take pride in work that looks clean, moves well, and makes people feel something, we want to see your reel.

Editing footage into polished, engaging final pieces with strong pacing and narrative structure.
Bringing modern, eye-catching, trend-aware editing styles to the table (motion, sound design, text treatments, and whatever is landing right now).
Color grading and finishing to a high, consistent standard.
Managing media, organizing projects, and maintaining a reliable backup and file-management workflow.
Collaborating with producers, directors, and clients to nail the creative vision.
Juggling multiple projects and hitting deadlines without sacrificing quality.
REQUIREMENTS:
A minimum of 4 years' experience shooting and editing professional video content.
A strong reel that shows range across brand, corporate, event, and story-driven work.
Mastery of professional camera systems (ideally Sony or RED) and comfortable making them sing in any environment.
Solid lighting and audio fundamentals for both controlled sets and run-and-gun situations.
Expert-level editing skills (Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, or equivalent) plus a working knowledge of motion graphics (After Effects a plus).
A sharp eye for current editing trends and the taste to know which ones fit the brand.
Strong color grading skills and an instinct for polish.
Able to work independently and take a project from card to final export.
Calm under pressure and comfortable in a fast-paced environment.
Deadline-focused, organized, and detail-obsessed.
Excellent communication skills and a collaborative, professional attitude.
