Editor needed for a digital game show series.

Although distributed through YouTube, this series is formatted similarly to the production value of a television show. In other words, the edit lift is quite heavy compared to what you would think an "average" YouTube edit would be. These edits are comprised of several camera angles, up to nine microphones, and multiple scenes.

The editor needs to be comfortable building story, editing with comedic timing, and dialogue editing. 
The best candidate for this role would be an editor who has experience in editing game shows, reality shows, or quick-paced comedy shows with lots of angles and audio tracks to manage. 



Editor may work remotely but must adhere to standard Pacific Standard Time working hours.

$1,000.00 - $1,200.00 / Weekly - Production is hiring an editor immediately at the rate range above to begin work the week of May 13, 2024.
