Videographer / video-editor

We are looking for talented videographers located in Paris, Tokyo, Brussels or London, and video editors from everywhere, as the position can be executed remotely. Keep in mind that the following requirements are not all required especially if applying for one of the two positions. 

Responsibilities

  • Visiting places throughout the city to shoot experiential videos (e.g. openings, events, pop-up experiences, art galleries, etc.)
  • Edit a wide range of social media videos: unscripted and scripted, using both original and archival footage (including branded content)
  • Quickly create edits and proactively experiment with different versions of an edit, exploring multiple directions and current trends
  • Create a polished final edit with colouring, sound mix and captions to be published on social channels
  • Identifying exciting potential video/photo topics and organizing shoots
  • Planning out interviews, storyboards, scripts and potential castings to turn general concepts into highly engaging, sharable pieces
  • Know the latest social media trends and be able to jump on them quickly

About You

  • Proven experience in working on a professional-quality scripted and unscripted video (showreel and portfolio of previous work, or any relevant social media links accepted as well)
  • Bachelor’s degree or similar in Film, Design, Communication or related field is a plus
  • Confidence in writing video copy/scripts
  • Social media content creation skills are a huge plus (anything from TikTok/Reels to Youtube)
  • Keen interest in the latest trends in social media and digital video platforms
  • Ability to work independently with a team
  • Passionate about city life and the topics we cover
  • Excellent understanding of digital media trends, with a good feel for what makes content shareable online
  • A can-do person who takes on tasks proactively and sees things through to completion

Skills

  • Advanced knowledge of After Effects, Premiere Pro, Photoshop and Media Encoder
  • Comfortable creating video and still imagery using digital cameras (Sony Alpha series, GoPro, iPhone, etc.)
  • Motion graphics and titling experience
  • Confidence in ability to create diverse video formats
  • Knowledge of digital media including codecs, image types, resolutions, frame rates and the latest digital workflows
  • Experience conducting interviews is a plus
  • Understanding of basic colour-correction (Premiere), basic sound design and mixing (Premiere and Audition)

We want to find people who believe in our goals and feel inspired enough to grow while they’re here to fill the role, rather than someone who checks the boxes but isn’t invested. 

We encourage you to apply and show us what you’ve got.
