hire video editors in africa

Companies hire a video editor when video becomes a regular part of their marketing, training or content, and outsourcing every clip gets slow and costly. A good editor turns raw footage into videos that hold attention, fit each platform and match your brand.

A few questions, one at a time, then pick a time for a 30-minute strategy call with our team.

What to check when screening

  • Watch a showreel and ask for full videos, not only highlights.
  • Check the software they use, such as Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut Pro.
  • Look at sound, colour and subtitles, which separate solid editors from beginners.
  • Give a short test edit from your own footage.

Questions to ask in interview

  • How do you cut the same footage differently for a long video and a short social clip?
  • What do you do when the footage you receive is weak or incomplete?
  • How do you organise your files on a project with lots of rushes and several revisions?

Skills to look for

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