Profile match
Shadow Light Studios is a talent placement firm that recruits vetted offshore creative and marketing professionals, largely from India and Latin America, for marketing agencies and consumer brands. Founded by entrepreneurs Max Hertan and Jordan Dahlquist, it places short-form video editors, ad designers, web developers and marketing specialists in remote full-time roles with clients such as the Gross Labs family enterprise and consumer brands. Its job board lists both its own recruiter positions and client roles including video editors, Shopify developers, media buyers, content writers, email marketing specialists and operations leads.
About the Role
Feel Your Soul and Jacob Zander are hiring a Narrative Short-Form Storyteller to turn long-form video (vlogs, brand content) into scroll-stopping short-form stories for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. You'll be the editor who finds the story inside raw footage and shapes it into something that performs.
What You'll Do
- Cut long-form video into multiple short-form variations for A/B testing and performance optimization
- Edit in Premiere Pro with strong narrative pacing and structure
- Build light motion graphics in After Effects to enhance storytelling
- Apply sound design that elevates the emotional pull of each edit
- Iterate based on what's performing across platforms
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience editing short-form content, ideally in a narrative/storytelling style
- Strong command of Premiere Pro; working knowledge of After Effects for motion graphics
- A clear understanding of sound design as a storytelling tool, not just polish
- Comfortable testing multiple cuts/hooks to find what performs best
- Based in the US or South America
Compensation & Growth
This role starts as a part-time arrangement (per-video rate) with a path to a full-time retainer position. (~$2,000/month)
Real opportunity for growth as the role and workload scale.
Our Hiring Process
- Apply here
- Complete a paid assessment (compensated if selected)
- Final interview
We're excited to see your work. Apply now.
