What are the responsibilities and job description for the Video & Motion Editor position at KPS3?
Where others see raw footage, you see a story and at least three ways to tell it.
About the role: We're evolving how we make video as an agency, and this role sits right at the intersection of craft and innovation. You'll own editing and post-production across a diverse client roster, collaborating closely with teammates to make sure every deliverable is as strategic as it is beautiful.
AI is a tool in your kit, but it’s your eye for the craft that shapes everything from a 15-second Reel to a long-form tradeshow video into something worth watching.
We're looking for someone based in Reno, Carson City, or Lake Tahoe.
You will:
- Spearhead the video and photo editing process
- Turn footage into polished visual narrative that adheres to clients’ brand standards
- Work closely with creative directors, copywriters, and social media strategists to ensure quality deliverables
- Leverage AI as a creative partner—not a replacement—and know when/how it improves the work
- Help shape workflows for AI-assisted video production
- Not afraid to pick up the camera(s) yourself sometimes to help capture headshots, special events, and other internal assignments as needed
- Organize digital assets, archives, and storage systems
You have:
- Deep understanding of storytelling, pacing, and sound design
- Proficiency with editing software like Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, CapCut, and similar tools
- Excellent communication, strategic thinking, and time management skills
- A flexible mindset that allows you to work seamlessly across multiple clients in a given day
- A natural curiosity and bias for action that keeps you learning and iterating
- A proactive approach to experimenting with new tools, especially AI, and sharing insights with the creative team
You get excited about:
- Being the go-to for all things photo and video
- Working in a fast-paced, collaborative environment
- Presenting multiple creative ideas and pushing work beyond what was asked for in the brief
- Growing your skill set, including animations
- Using AI to enhance your deliverables and level up how the agency produces digital media
What to expect:
When you provide your application, we also require that you include a portfolio of work. If your application and style feel like a good match, you’ll be invited to participate in our interview process:
- Initial interview with HR
- 2–3 rounds of conversations with folks from leadership and people you’d be working closely with
- A compensated test project (because your time and talent matter)
We’re just as invested in finding the right fit for you as we are for us. So bring your questions, your work, and your quirks. We’ll bring ours, too.
Perks, notes, and other company stuff:
- We pay 100% medical, dental, and vision insurance premiums for you.
- Can’t forget about life insurance—we cover that, too.
- 401k match.
- Profit-sharing is a thing, because we’re in this together.
- We issue employees an annual lifestyle benefit card that can only be spent on relaxation and fun.
- You get loads of time off (20 days of PTO to start 8 paid holidays on top).
- Receive longevity bonuses at one, three, and five years.
- We offer a hybrid remote and in-person working environment.
- We don't work on old computers or have old software.
- If you want to learn, go to a conference, or get certified, we encourage and pay for it.
- Flexibility. Sometimes it's leaving early for an appointment; sometimes it's a late night to hit a deadline. We both have priorities and work to balance them.
- Dogs and cats are allowed... assuming they’re friendly and well-trained.
