Senior Video Editor

At Framed, every image is a story — not just a frame. We don’t believe in slapping on presets or applying batch edits that strip photos of their essence. We believe in editing with intent — understanding what the image is trying to say, and then using light, color, tone, and crop to let it speak louder.

We’re looking for a Senior Photo Editor who approaches every image like a scene from a film — who understands mood, rhythm, visual balance, and emotional timing. Someone who can spot not just the sharpest image but the most meaningful one.

This is not a mechanical role — it’s a creative leadership position. You’ll be responsible for shaping the final visual output of hundreds of shoots across weddings, portraits, and commercial work. You’ll also play a critical role in mentoring younger editors, building editing SOPs, and maintaining consistency across a growing team.

Your Responsibilities

• Visual Curation: Select images that communicate story, emotion, and design — not just what’s technically good.
• Grading & Mood Creation: Apply color grading that enhances narrative tone — cinematic, warm, raw, or timeless — without resorting to templated presets.
• Bulk Editing Mastery: Work efficiently on large sets while maintaining a high level of consistency and visual polish.
• Style & Consistency Checks: Ensure every delivery (weddings, products, lifestyle shoots, portraits) is on-brand and up to the mark.
• Team Mentorship: Lead junior editors, review their work, and upskill them to meet Framed’s visual benchmarks.
• Creative Syncing: Collaborate with photographers and the Creative Director to align edits with shoot intent and brand tone.
• System Thinking: Suggest and help implement better workflows, file-naming structures, and QA processes to streamline the department.

Key Skills Required

• Deep understanding of composition, light, and story through images
• High-level command over Lightroom (for both batch and individual edits)
• Strong expertise in Photoshop (cleanup, cloning, color correction, retouching)
• Exposure to cinematic grading approaches
• Ability to replicate and adapt grading styles as per brand guidelines
• Experience with high-volume editing (weddings, commercial, or editorial)

This is a leadership-track role with potential to grow into Head of Post-Production. You’ll be shaping the aesthetic direction of hundreds of shoots, mentoring future editors, and working closely with our creative leads on brand-defining visuals.
