Freelance Video Editor role focused on creating performance-driven, TikTok-native UGC ads using creative editing and AI tools.
Requirements
- TikTok-native editing instincts — you know what a strong hook looks like in the first 2 seconds of raw footage, and you know how to build toward it.
- Speed without sloppiness — you're comfortable turning around multiple cuts in a short window. Fast doesn't mean careless.
- Performance mindset — you care whether your edits work, not just whether they look good. You read the results and apply them to the next cut.
- AI tool fluency — you've used tools like ElevenLabs, or equivalent for dubbing and lip-sync. You experiment and stay current.
- Modular thinking — you understand the hook / body / CTA structure and can edit to the module, not just the whole video.
- Autonomous execution — you read the brief, ask the right questions once, and deliver. You don't need to be chased.
