Overview

I'm a tour content creator working with an active music act on the road. Every day I capture hours of raw footage: candid moments, behind-the-scenes, travel, performances, fan interactions. I need an editor who can work through that footage and cut it into multiple types of short-form social media content, while also staying ahead of the posting schedule, not just keeping up with it.

This is not a "polish my already-cut video" role. You need to be a storyteller who can find the moment in a sea of clips.

How the Workflow Works:

Raw footage uploaded to a shared Google Drive daily

I maintain a Footage Index that logs every clip, what's in it, and flagged moments worth using

You use that index as your roadmap, no scrubbing blind through hours of footage

You pull the right clips, cut the content, and deliver on schedule

Part of the job is getting ahead of the content calendar when footage allows, not just delivering day-of

What You'll Edit:

Four content types on a rolling basis:

Tour Vlogs - Day-on-the-road mini docs, under 2 min, personality-driven

Performance Clips - Stage footage with text overlays (hooks, lyrics, call to action)

Talking to Performance - A member speaks about a song or moment, cuts into a performance clip

Band Personality / Candid Moments - Offstage life, humor, real interactions

Expect 1-3 deliverables per day depending on what footage came in.

Schedule and Rate:

Monday through Friday only

Approximately 3-4 hours per day

Rate: $40/hour

Contract length: 4 weeks to start

Start date: within the next 2-3 days

You're Right for This If:

You edit in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve (non-negotiable)

You have a portfolio of lifestyle, travel, creator, or music content under 3 minutes

You understand social media pacing for Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts

You're comfortable working from unstructured raw footage with no pre-written script

You can start within 2-3 days and commit to the full 4-week run

You communicate clearly and hit deadlines without being chased

You're NOT Right for This If:

You edit in Final Cut, CapCut, or anything other than Premiere or DaVinci

Your portfolio is corporate or long-form only

You need pre-selected clips or detailed shot lists to get started

You can't start immediately

To Apply:

Send two examples of short-form lifestyle or music content you edited from raw footage, your availability to start, and confirmation you work in Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve. No examples = no response.
