Freelance Video Editor

Role overview

Join a fast-moving creative team producing short-form documentary pieces for luxury brands in the wine and spirits space. The work involves turning supplied footage and still images into refined, cinematic edits that stay under two minutes, while working from clear creative direction and detailed briefs.

The assignment calls for strong editorial judgment, a sharp sense of pacing and rhythm, and the ability to shape visual stories for both vertical and horizontal delivery formats. Project types may include branded see-say videos with voiceover and motion cues, cinematic tabletop pieces, and multi-scene montage edits that use subtle parallax and motion effects. An immediate start is available, with flexibility depending on the size and needs of each project.

Responsibilities

• Build short documentary-style videos under two minutes using supplied footage and images.
• Cut see-say style content that combines branding, voiceover, and motion prompts.
• Produce cinematic tabletop edits and multi-scene montage videos.
• Use restrained parallax and motion treatment to add depth and visual appeal.
• Deliver exports in both vertical and horizontal formats as needed.
• Work closely with producers and creative directors to align the edit with the intended vision.
• Respond quickly to feedback and keep pace with tight turnaround times.

Requirements

• Demonstrated background editing documentary, lifestyle, hospitality, or premium/luxury content.
• Portfolio that clearly shows cinematic storytelling ability and sound editorial decision-making.
• Working knowledge of Premiere Pro is preferred, with Final Cut or DaVinci Resolve also acceptable.
• Comfortable delivering work efficiently in a remote freelance setup and communicating clearly.
• Quick, detail-focused, and able to incorporate creative feedback with minimal delay.
• Experience creating branded edits and content across multiple aspect ratios and formats.
• Exposure to motion graphics or subtle animation is an added advantage.
• Available to start immediately for project-based or hourly assignments.
