Role Description We are looking for a creative, fast, and internet-savvy Short-Form Video Editor / Livestream Clipper who can turn long livestreams, recordings, and creator content into highly engaging short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook. This is not a traditional video editing role where you simply follow a script. We need a content hunter—someone who can watch long-form content, spot the funniest, most emotional, awkward, intense, dramatic, or highly entertaining moments, and edit them in a way that makes people stop scrolling. Key Responsibilities - Watch livestreams, recordings, and long-form videos to identify the strongest clip-worthy moments. - Independently review 4–8 hours of raw footage daily to find high-retention hooks, emotional peaks, funny moments, reactions, or viral-style snippets. - Turn long-form content into short-form clips for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook. - Edit clips to highlight emotion, tension, humor, conflict, excitement, awkwardness, or strong reactions. - Use zoom-ins, jump cuts, captions, sound effects, memes, music, pacing, and visual emphasis to make clips more engaging. - Create strong openings that grab attention within the first few seconds. - Add captions, subtitles, on-screen text, emojis, motion graphics, and visual callouts when needed. - Format videos properly for vertical viewing, especially 9:16 short-form platforms. - Identify trending audio, meme formats, and viral editing styles on TikTok/Reels and apply them to creator footage quickly. - Maintain the natural flow and context of the original content while making the clip more entertaining. - Follow the client’s brand style, tone, and preferred editing format. - Deliver edited clips quickly and manage multiple clips or batches of content as needed. - Stay updated on livestream clipping trends, creator content, meme culture, social media formats, and audience retention techniques. Qualifications - Proven experience editing livestream clips, creator content, podcast clips, gaming clips, reaction videos, or short-form social media videos. - Strong ability to identify “viral gold” moments from long-form content without needing exact timestamps. - High internet IQ and strong understanding of Twitch, Kick, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, creator culture, and chat humor. - Good sense of emotion, timing, humor, drama, pacing, and audience retention. - Experience editing for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, Facebook, or similar platforms. - Proficient in Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or similar editing tools. - Able to turn a live or recorded moment into a finished short-form video quickly, ideally within 30 minutes when needed. - Skilled in adding captions, zooms, sound effects, music, memes, transitions, and visual emphasis. - Strong understanding of hooks, pacing, storytelling, and short-form video structure. - Able to make a clip feel more entertaining without making it misleading or fake. - Detail-oriented, creative, fast, and able to work independently. - Comfortable reviewing long livestreams or recordings to find the best moments. Nice to Have - Experience editing gaming, sports, gambling/card games, streamer, creator, or entertainment content. - Familiarity with meme-style editing and viral short-form formats. - Experience using AI clipping tools, auto-captioning tools, or content repurposing tools. - Basic motion graphics or thumbnail design experience. - Understanding of social media analytics, watch time, retention, and engagement metrics. - Strong awareness of creators or streamers with successful clipping teams and what makes their clips work. Application Requirements - A link to a clipping portfolio, such as YouTube Shorts, TikToks, Instagram Reels, or similar short-form samples. - A short explanation of one clip they made and why it performed well, or why they believe it had viral potential. - A few examples of streamers, creators, or brands they think currently have strong clipping teams, with a brief reason why. Benefits - Opportunities for growth and advancement. - Competitive compensation package, including MaxiCare HMO. Work Hours - Full-time, Eastern Standard Time business hours, Remote.
