Video Editor

About the Role:

FRESHERS DO NOT APPLY

We’re looking for a creative and detail-oriented video editor to join our in-house team at Maneesh Media. You’ll be editing compelling long-form and short-form videos for our storytelling-led branded content.

If you live and breathe storytelling, have a good ear for audio design, follow YouTube trends, and can transform raw footage into emotionally resonant and visually engaging narratives — we want you. THIS POST WILL REQUIRE YOU TO COMPLETE TWO TASKS, SO APPLY ONLY IF YOU ARE INTERSTED TO DO THEM.

Key Responsibilities:

• Edit long-form interviews, mini-documentaries, and biography-style content with storytelling flow.
• Create teasers, trailers, shorts, and reels from long-form content optimized for YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.
• Add professional motion graphics, titles, lower-thirds, transitions, and B-rolls to maintain viewer retention.
• Enhance visual tone with color correction/grading and sound design.
• Research YouTube trends (retention hooks, cuts, thumbnail impact, pacing) and implement them smartly in edits.
• Organize and manage project files for easy collaboration with content and social media teams.
• Work closely with scriptwriters and directors to align vision, mood, and pace of each video.

What You Should Have:

• Minimum 3 years of hands-on experience with Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and DaVinci Resolve (or equivalent).
• Strong storytelling sense and ability to pace edits to match modern viewer attention spans.
• Knowledge of YouTube formatting: hook-intro-content-CTA structure, retention strategies, SEO for video are add-ons.
• Ability to create polished edits even from minimal or rough footage.
• Eye for typography, transitions, and a good understanding of aesthetic trends in social content.
• Basic knowledge of YouTube thumbnail aesthetics is a plus.
• Bonus: Experience working on documentaries, interviews, or biographical content.

You’re a Great Fit If You:

• Love telling real stories and making people “feel” something through your edits.
• Keep an eye on trending content formats on YouTube, Instagram Reels, and Shorts.
• Are comfortable working in a fast-paced, quality-driven team.
• Are deadline-oriented and proactive in ideating new formats and improvements.
