HOW YOU’LL SPEND YOUR TIME: - Crafting 60–90 second pre-roll episode trailers that utilize sophisticated editorial rhythm, graphics, and establish an immediate emotional hook, and elevate the guest’s narrative to a world-class level. - Working in close collaboration with the Long-Form Editor to review raw footage and identify 8–12 high-impact "clippable" moments per episode, ensuring a strategic mix of emotional stories, entertaining opinions, and actionable advice. - Implementing sophisticated text overlays, multi-cam re-framing, and B-roll integration in vertical formats to ensure the viewer's "scroll" is stopped within the first 3 seconds. - Tailoring clips specifically for the unique cultures of TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts to maximize organic reach and retention. - Working with our social team to analyze retention graphs on your clips and adjusting your editing style to maximize view duration and click-through rates. - Ensuring every piece of short-form content—from subtitles to color grading—meets our "Prestige" aesthetic and feels cohesive with our long-form episodes. - Working with our social team to analyze retention graphs on your clips and adjusting your editing style to maximize view duration and click-through rates. WHAT YOU HAVE: - 5+ years of experience editing video content for high-profile podcasts or YouTube channels. - High-level understanding of how to edit content specifically for YouTube and other social platforms (e.g., TikTok, Instagram Reels). - Experience on a podcast that consistently ranks in the top 5% of all podcasts, with a minimum of 100,000+ downloads per episode within the first 30 days of release is preferred. - A track record of producing episodes that have been featured on top podcast charts (e.g., Apple Podcasts, Spotify) and have generated significant social media engagement and media attention. - High-energy editorial experience: A portfolio that showcases exceptional skill in crafting dynamic and compelling narrative arcs, with a specific emphasis on creating high-energy, attention-grabbing intros that hook listeners immediately." - A deep, intuitive understanding of human psychology and what makes a clip shareable. You don’t just find "good" moments; you find "unmissable" ones. - Proven experience working alongside a Lead Editor to "extract" the best content from a sprawling conversation, knowing how to spot a narrative nugget that will perform high on social media. - 3–5 years of experience specifically editing for vertical social platforms with a portfolio that showcases cinematic quality over basic captions-on-video edits. - Expertise with Adobe Creative Suite, with a primary focus on Adobe Premiere Pro. - An instinct for choosing and creating compelling story arcs.. - The skill to take a 3-minute sprawling story and condense it into a punchy, 50-second "viral arc" without losing the guest's core message or emotional impact. - The experience to receive footage with minimal direction but still craft a highly engaging story. - Demonstrated ability to produce high-quality work on tight deadlines. WHO OVERSEES YOU: The Editor reports directly to the Podcast Producer and Post Production Manager. WHERE IT ALL GOES DOWN: Our Editor will work remotely from home or personal office and will be required to utilize Changing Lives Productions time tracking software to log and submit work hours.
