Role Description

Role Overview - Video Editor Associate

We are looking for a Video Editor with strong motion and design skills who can independently handle video edits while also creating video-ready graphics using Illustrator and/or similar graphic tools. This role blends editing, motion graphics, 2D animation, and design for video, and is ideal for someone who enjoys owning visuals end-to-end—from layout and design to animation and final edit.

The ideal candidate understands how design translates into motion and can create clean, animation-friendly assets that enhance storytelling.

What You'll Do: 

Video Editing

  • Edit videos using Adobe Premiere Pro for internal, marketing, and client-facing content
  • Build narratives through pacing, structure, and visual flow
  • Handle audio editing, cleanup, syncing, and basic mixing.

Motion Graphics & Animation

  • Create motion graphics and 2D animations using Adobe After Effects
  • Animate titles, lower thirds, infographics, UI-style elements, and transitions
  • Maintain visual consistency across animations and edits.

Design for Video

  • Design video graphics using Adobe Illustrator and/or Photoshop including:
  • Titles, lower thirds, name supers
  • Icons, charts, and infographics
  • Layouts and frames for animated sequences
  • Prepare animation-ready design files with clean layer structure
  • Adapt designs across formats (16:9, 9:16, 1:1, etc.)

What you'll Bring:

  • 2–3 years of hands-on experience in video editing and motion graphics.
  • Fluency in English
  • Client-first mentality
  • Intense work ethic
  • Collaborative spirit and problem-solving approach

Strong proficiency in:

  • Adobe Premiere Pro
  • Adobe After Effects
  • Adobe Illustrator
  • Adobe Photoshop.

Solid understanding of:

  • Video storytelling and editing fundamentals
  • Motion design and 2D animation principles
  • Design principles for on-screen and animated content
  • Working knowledge of audio editing basics

Good to Have

  • Familiarity with AI video tools and workflows (generative video, AI cleanup, captions, etc.)
  • Knowledge of Figma for Video Storyboarding
  • Exposure to DaVinci Resolve (editing, color, or audio)
  • Basic knowledge of 3D tools (Unreal Engine, Blender, Cinema 4D)
  • Understanding of color correction and grading basics

Portfolio Requirement

  • A demo reel or portfolio showcasing:
  • Video editing
  • Motion graphics / 2D animation
  • Designed video graphics (Illustrator → Animation)

What Success Looks Like

  • Ability to take a video from brief to final delivery with minimal supervision
  • Clean design-to-animation handoffs and efficient workflows
  • Consistent visual quality and storytelling across projects.
