Company Description We are an independent film production company based in London (close to Southwark station), with the primary background in short films. We are in the process of expanding to creating behind the scenes and marketing content for feature films.
Role Description The focus of this role is editing behind the scenes promotional videos for feature films. We film EPK style content on feature films, which needs to be edited down to smaller pieces for social media - varied between 16:9 YouTube featurettes (5-10 mins) and vertical Reels/Shorts/Tiktok pieces. (30-90sec) At times there will be a detailed script to follow, other times you will need to be creative with editing a video based on a specific topic. The role will be project based, and is thus part-time. You will be needed for a few weeks at a time following shoot completion, subject to your availability. As projects ramp up, we would hope to transition you to full time down the road, but at the moment there isn't a sufficient volume of work for this.
The ideal working setup will involve some work on sight to align on objectives, approaches, etc. then for you to work independently remotely or on-sight (subject to your preference), and present videos to review.
Technical : We have a workstation available for you to work at, but we are looking for someone with the flexibility to also work from home, should it be required. Our current projects are done in DaVinci Resolve, but we will be happy to transition to Premiere if that is your preference. File formats include 8K Braw (URSA-12K), 4K Sony Log (FX3), 4K D-log (DJI Osmo). You are expected to know basic colour grading.
