Key Responsibilities:

Daily creation of 3-5 pieces of short-form video content, utilizing provided action-packed footage, such as athletes performing in their sports. Imagine making a mundane clip of a soccer player kicking a ball into something that captures the essence of the moment and keeps viewers on the edge of their seats.
Apply advanced editing techniques to enhance the raw action, including but not limited to speed ramping, dynamic transitions, impactful color grading, and sophisticated visual effects, to convey motion and emotion powerfully.
Work closely with the content team to brainstorm and implement innovative ideas that leverage the action in the footage to tell a story or highlight the intensity and passion of the moment.
Ensure that each video maximizes viewer engagement through creative use of visual storytelling techniques, avoiding simplistic edits or reliance on text overlays as the primary form of enhancement.

Qualifications:

A strong portfolio or reel that clearly demonstrates your ability to creatively edit action-packed footage into short-form content that engages and excites.
Proficiency in video editing software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects) and a good understanding of graphic design tools relevant to video editing.
An exceptional eye for detail and creativity, capable of transforming straightforward action shots into dynamic and engaging narratives.
Solid knowledge of current trends in short-form content, particularly those that resonate with viewers looking for quick-paced, action-oriented videos.
Excellent time management skills, with the ability to juggle multiple projects under tight deadlines without sacrificing quality.
A clear understanding that this role involves creative video editing far beyond basic clip assembly and text overlay. We’re looking for someone who can add depth, excitement, and a unique angle to every piece of content.

Application Instruction:

Your application should include the word “ActionEdit” to confirm your attention to detail and understanding of the job’s requirements. Please attach your resume and a link to your portfolio or examples of your work, specifically highlighting your experience with action footage.

This position is perfect for someone passionate about bringing high-energy scenes to life, drawing viewers into the moment, and leaving a lasting impression. If you’re ready to take on this challenge and have the skills to turn raw action into captivating stories, we want to hear from you.
