Graphics & Motion

• Create and animate graphic pop-ups and lower-thirds using After Effects

Workflow & Delivery

• Use the Cutback plugin in Premiere Pro to align course transcripts with video cuts for efficient editing
  

• Upload draft edits to Frame.io for internal and client review
  

• Implement all approved revisions in a timely manner
  

• Export final renders in course-ready formats and upload to the client’s designated Google Drive folder
  

• Maintain organized project files following established naming conventions
  

• Return Premiere Pro project files (without footage) to the in-house team upon project completion
  

REQUIRED SKILLS & SOFTWARE PROFICIENCY:

Candidates MUST BE proficient in the full Adobe Creative Suite used in our production pipeline:

• Adobe Premiere Pro — primary editing software for cutting, sequencing, and audio work
  

• Adobe After Effects — motion graphics and animated pop-ups
  

• Adobe Photoshop — graphic asset creation and visual design
  

• Cutback (Premiere Pro plugin) — transcript-based editing and cut automation
  

• Waves Regen — AI-powered audio repair and voice enhancement
  

• Frame.io — cloud-based video review and client feedback platform
  

• Google Drive — organized file delivery and client asset management
  

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS:

• 2+ years of professional video editing experience, preferably in online education, e-learning, or corporate training content
  

• Demonstrated ability to manage multi-episode projects (20+ videos) with consistent quality
  

• Experience editing two-camera or multi-angle course footage
  

• Strong understanding of 4K video workflows and large file management
  

• Ability to work independently and meet deadlines without heavy oversight
  

• Strong communication skills for feedback implementation and revision rounds
  

• Portfolio or reel showcasing relevant editing work (course, educational, or instructional content preferred)
  

Our production environment is built around a local RAID storage system (5-drive SSD array) used by the in-house team. 

Remote editors will receive raw footage delivered via Google Drive and are expected to:

• Download footage from the shared Google Drive folder
  

• Edit locally using their own workstation
  

• Upload completed Premiere Pro project files back to the team (footage stays local — only the project file needs to be returned, as our team holds the matched footage)
  

• Follow established folder and file naming conventions so footage relinks automatically upon delivery
  

• Note: Remote editors will not have direct access to the in-house RAID server. All file exchange is handled through Google Drive and Frame.io.
