Vacancy caducado!
Hey there!
I’m a video producer and I’m looking to
connect with a local video editor (ie: someone who loves finding those magic story
moments in the edit) to help me with upcoming client projects in the Monmouth County and New Jersey area.
I love working with video clients and lately I’ve discovered I enjoy spending more of my
time on the Producing side of projects.
I’ll handle the negotiations, sales to get the rates we need so we can fulfill the work, and
oversee the project from start until finding you in the edit suite. I’ll even handle the
communication with them through the revision process and keep it under control so you
can just focus on the job-at-hand of finding and telling cool stories instead of doing
endless revisions.
Simply put, if you don’t like the sales side of client work, dealing with people who may
not understand what goes into making a great edit, or you don’t feel comfortable
chasing down new clients all the time but you kick ass at your craft, then cool! Let’s
combine our strengths and start winning together!
Ideal Candidates: are those who are either already edit video in Adobe Premiere Pro and who understand
what working through a project in post-production for corporate clients is like.
I’m looking for someone that wants to either bring in additional editing work and is
already doing this - OR - if you’re great at editing video and you work a day-job (but can
dedicate some hours outside of work) to earn extra money doing what you love, that’s
cool with me too!
Communication is key as I wanna make your life as easy as possible, and when we find
our flow I wanna set you up to rock. I’m even open to your creative ideas as long as
they fit within the scope and mission of each video project too!
Lastly, I love working with people and who enjoy having fun while making professional
and creative corporate video projects because at the end of the day if we can’t have fun
working together what’s the point?
Who this is not for:
- Someone who is just starting out and is “learning how to edit”. You MUST know how to
edit in Adobe Premiere Pro in order to be eligible for this gig.
- If you’re looking for a full-time salaried position, this isn’t going to be the right fit at this
stage in my business.
- People who are unable to work within deadlines. Nobody wants to be dragging things
on longer than they need to be, and this work is for paying clients who expect a smooth
timeline for delivery so they can get their videos out to market.
I’d love to find someone who vibes with me, who is open to working on additional
editing projects, and wants to build a long-term business relationship with.
So let’s talk about the money side of things.
Rates can vary, depending on your skill and what you bring to the table, though I wanna
make a commitment to pay a minimum of $40 an hour for video editing (with a minimum
of 5 hours of paid time) so you can see I’m not out to low-ball you with some stupid offer
like, “do this work for your demo reel”, or “You’ll get an IMDB credit”, or something
stupid like, “I’ll pay you $100 for my passion project” that takes 80 hours of work of
assembling, revisions, color-correcting, mastering audio, or any other junk like that we
see people post when trying to hire us creatives.
Most of these projects are “talking head” style interviews with supplemental B-Roll. I
also have a story structure I like to follow with my final projects, so as you gain
experience working with me it only gets easier.
Preference will be given to those who have their own editing rig.
If This Resonates With You Respond To This Classified Listing:
- With your preferred hourly rate and up to 3 samples of work that show your ability to
tell a story in the edit. I wanna see your ability with pacing, music mixing, and color (if
required).
- Watch this video https://youtu.be/ehA478gT-E4
- https://youtu.be/-Wqo1mF8hYw
and tell me what their business is about based on the above video. This will also give you a
sense of my story-telling style and what my clients will expect from Post-Production.
- And answer the following question, “What is one of your favorite memories in the past
12 months, not film-related, and why?’
