Video Editor |Autism Charity|

Job description
As a volunteer Video Editor for the Transforming Autism Project you will produce and/or edit engaging, informative and brand centric video content to convey the Charity's message and brand.

What will you be doing?

You'll work with pride in what you do; delivering excellence to showcase the Charity's work across a number of platforms both shorter form content (e.g. interviews with families) to longer form content (e.g. webinars), under the guidance of our marketing team.

Initially, the work will involve editing recordings made by others, such as testimonials, interviews, our Autism for Parenting podcast, webinars, etc. You can see examples of all of these on our YouTube channel. In doing this, you will at the very least match, but ideally far exceed the production standards that we currently have in these areas. We can provide Davinci Resolve templates if this is helpful (though you might need to help us extract them...).

If it matches with your interests and abilities, there is also the possibility of additionally producing more ambitious projects, which you may also propose.

What are we looking
for?

You'll bring:
• Attention to detail across audio, visual and written/subtitle forms
• High production standards
• Solid experience in video editing tools
• Familiar with post production techniques

What difference will you make?

We provide crucial support for young autistic children and their families at an age when we can make a profound life-long difference. Our pioneering First Steps programme (created in association with Norland College and based on a therapeutic framework they created for us) focuses on giving families the tools they need to understand and interact with their autistic children in ways that make them feel understood, affirmed and nurtured, strengthening relationships and facilitating the child's optimal development so that they are able to fulfil their true potential.

Our new online parent groups, facilitated by our exceptional Lead Therapist, aims to take the principle learning from this and make it available to many more families so that more lives can be transformed.

Unlike many other autism organisations, we do not focus on the perceived limitations or impairments associated with autism, but instead propose our own unique and empowering conception of it, highlighting the profound sensitivity inherent in the autistic condition as well as other positive aspects which, if nurtured appropriately, can lead to very positive outcomes. This was first presented in our TED talk, which has now been seen by well over 300,000 people.

We are currently fundraising to enable more families to partake in First Steps, and over time, we aspire to open our own state of the art therapeutic centre in the UK.

We also challenge conventional perceptions of autism and offer our own radical and empowering perspective.

This can be seen in our TED talk, which has now been viewed by well over 200,000 people and received great acclaim from the autistic community.
