Use advanced techniques like stabilisation, beat-syncing, slow motion, and dynamic lighting corrections. Sync music and sound design for impact, creating rhythm-based storytelling. Collaborate with creative teams on visual mood, pacing, and colour direction. Pick only the most cinematic shots every frame should look intentional. Ensure final renders meet broadcast and social platform standards (16:9, 9:16, 1:1). Skills & Requirements - 2–4 years of professional experience in short-form video editing. - Expertise in Adobe Premiere Pro, Da Vinci Resolve(preferred), or Final Cut Pro. - Strong understanding of stabilisation, lighting, reflections, and visual balance. - Familiar with cinematography principles (composition, framing, exposure). - Strong sense of timing, beat matching, and visual rhythm. - A showreel that demonstrates high-quality, stable, visually clean edits. Test Assignment (Mandatory) Create an 8–20 second short edit using the footage we provide. Focus on: - Stabilisation and shot selection - Lighting and reflection balance - Beat-cutting and music sync - Slow motion or motion control for impact - Only include your best, cleanest shots quality matters more than length.
