Job Description

We are seeking a highly skilled, efficient, and versatile Video Editor / Motion Graphics Artists to expand our freelance pool.

• Motion graphics & compositing: Use After Effects, or Fusion, to build engaging TOS, dynamic lower thirds, data visualizations, and clean transitions that elevate the messaging.
• Rapid turnaround: Deliver high-quality first drafts within 1–2 days, executing revisions quickly and accurately.
• Full Post-Production: Take ownership of the edit from brief to final delivery, including sound design/audio mixing, color grading, and dialogue pacing.

Requirements

Required qualifications

• At least 4 years of both motion design and post-production video editing experience
• High proficiency in Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro
• High proficiency in After Effects, or Fusion: mastery of animation principles, expressions, tracking, and compositing.
• Strong foundational knowledge of color correction/grading, audio clean-up, sound effects (SFX) placement, and audio ducking.
• A holistic understanding of the entire production pipeline (from script and storyboard to legal clearances, archiving, and final delivery).
• Ability to maintain a cool head and attention to detail during fast-paced election cycles or rapid-response moments.
