We’re looking for a Videographer / Video Editor to help bring campaign concepts to life from storyboards to final exports—shooting and editing high-impact content across social, paid ads, and tutorials.

On set, you’ll capture footage with confident framing, lighting awareness, composition, and sound, keeping shoot days efficient and organized. In post, you’ll craft edits with a strong sense of rhythm and narrative, layering in sound design, motion graphics, and text treatments to create platform-native, scroll-stopping work—while staying locked into brand consistency across formats.

This role is perfect for a nimble, detail-driven creator who thrives in a fast-paced studio, loves clean workflows and file organization, and is excited to explore new plugins and AI tools to push quality and speed. A standout beauty/lifestyle reel is a must.
