The role

As a video editor, you turn raw footage into finished videos: ads, web series, short social clips, documentaries or corporate films. You select the best takes, cut to rhythm, add music, titles and subtitles, and correct colour and sound. You work closely with directors, content creators and marketing teams.

Skills employers ask for

  • Adobe Premiere Pro
  • DaVinci Resolve
  • Final Cut Pro
  • Colour grading
  • Sound editing
  • Short-form social video

Who is hiring

TV channels, production houses, advertising agencies, media start-ups, brands and independent content creators hire video editors. A lot of the work is freelance and remote, since footage can be shared online, with on-site roles in studios and newsrooms.

Background and career path

Video editors train in film or audiovisual schools, or teach themselves, and get hired on the strength of their showreel. They progress to senior editor, post-production supervisor or director.
