EDITOR
Do you like to be handed a bunch of puzzle pieces and left to put them together on your own? Can you juggle multiple projects while keeping track of each and every little detail for all of them? Are you a perfectionist who is never satisfied with “good enough”? If this sounds like you, then you might be able to help us. We are looking for an editor who can work with our team to handle the day to day grind of our post-production activities. Not only will the ideal candidate possess all of the above qualities, but they will have a passion for editing and a desire to grow in every aspect of post-production.
If any of this sounds like you – APPLY
If none of this sounds like you – DON’T.
Our close-knit team works with a select roster of directors, writers, cinematographers, and other bright creatives allowing us to provide our Clients with everything they need. The main task for this role is to take the raw pieces of our projects and turn them into final videos with little supervision. The ideal candidate will boast a portfolio showing they possess the traits of a successful editor such as timing, judgment, storytelling and a creative voice. Past work showing a wide range of content (talking head pieces, sizzles, commercial, branded pieces, narrative, motion graphics pieces, etc.) are best.
This is not an entry level role. The ideal candidate will have already been acting in this role for a minimum of two years at a production company, agency, or as part of an in-house video role. For all duties, the candidate must be experienced in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Media Encoder, and Photoshop. Any experience in motion design is a BIG plus.
Red Productions has all the trappings of a 21st century creative office: dogs, a kegerator, fun music streaming for most of the day and open workspaces. We also have quiet time to dig in and focus. Oh, and 401k, health benefits, vacation/sick time, and profit sharing. You’re also given two days of paid time off for serving the community through what we call “giving back days”. This is a full time role located at our studio in Fort Worth with around five percent travel, and a TENTATIVE START DATE of April 2023.
