About Phoenix Live

We’re Phoenix Live — a creatively bold, wildly passionate, fiercely collaborative experiential agency trusted by the world’s most admired brands — Apple, Amazon, Microsoft, Deloitte, Google (and many more).

We design, produce, and deliver full-scale event experiences and brand moments that don’t just impress — they stick. Every film we craft, every reel we cut, every moment we design — it's all rooted in storytelling, speed, soul, and hustle.

We're a small team with big energy. We move fast. We care deeply. We’re not clock-watchers or status quo settlers — and we don’t hire people who are either.

The Role: Video Editor

This isn’t your regular cut-and-trim job. We’re looking for a creative storyteller with serious visual instincts — someone who sees rhythm in raw footage, feels emotion in a frame, and lives to create edits that move people.

As our in-house Video Editor, you’ll be at the center of shaping how Phoenix Live and our client brands show up in motion. From corporate brand AVs and event after-movies to social media reels, speaker bumpers, animation-led edits, and storytelling montages — your role will span the full length and depth of branded video content.

What You’ll Own

Creative Video Editing

• Take raw footage, design inputs, client notes, and event content to craft compelling narrative edits
• Build sleek AVs, snappy reels, teaser promos, and impact-led event highlights that carry brand soul
• Create both long-form edits and short-form content with pacing, tone, and emotion that fits the moment

Conceptual Thinking & Collaboration

• Brainstorm edit approaches with creative leads and account teams
• Contribute to ideation of story arcs, transitions, VFX concepts, and motion-led brand storytelling
• Translate brand intent into edit mood and tone — making every frame feel like the client

Motion Graphics & Animation (Preferred but not mandatory)

• Add motion design layers, basic text animations, transitions, and other VFX finesse when needed
• Collaborate with design & 3D teams for multimedia integrations into video workflows

Precision, Detail & Timelines

• Work on quick turnarounds without compromising on quality — especially post-events
• Own end-to-end execution: raw cut, edit versions, sound sync, color correction, and final output
• Keep files organized, assets ready, and exports optimized for multiple platforms

Who You Are

• 2–4 years of strong experience as a video editor, ideally in agency, event, or content studio setups
• Proficient in Premiere Pro, After Effects, and basic audio editing (DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, Photoshop, Illustrator is a bonus)
• You understand rhythm, pacing, audio layering, typography, and emotion — and how to use them to create standout edits
• A team player with a positive attitude, zero ego, and love for feedback loops that help you grow
• Comfortable with shifting briefs, live event turnarounds, and high-volume video workflows
• Highly organized with respect for timelines, team interdependencies, and quality control

What We’re Really Looking For

- A learner mindset — you want to get better with every project
- High creative alignment — you “get” storytelling and branding- Detail-oriented approach — you spot the millisecond jump cut without being told- Someone who’s fun, self-motivated, collaborative, and emotionally intelligent

Why Phoenix Live?

- Be part of a hyper-creative team where your voice matters
- No silos, no boring briefs — just brilliant projects and full creative immersion- Grow fast, fail safe, and learn by doing every single day
