In this technical and creative role, you will work directly with raw cinema footage, transforming director briefs and multi-cam assets into polished, high-end commercial videos.

Client Overview

Our client is a premium creative production powerhouse based in Box Hill, New South Wales, specializing in high-end commercial marketing, professional videography, photography, and cinematic visual media. Delivering elevated visual storytelling for growing brands, the business operates on rigorous post-production workflows and distinct aesthetic standards. To scale editing capacity, streamline post-production pipelines, and allow lead directors to focus on principal photography and business development, they are onboarding a skilled remote Video Editor.

• Maintain organized project files, media assets, and timeline archives across ongoing production pipelines.

2. Advanced Color Grading & Finishing

• Perform professional node-based color grading in DaVinci Resolve to establish atmospheric visual styles, correct exposure/white balance, and ensure color consistency across shots.

• Apply color space transforms and custom look-up tables (LUTs) aligned with high-end camera profiles (LOG/RAW formats).

• Execute final audio mixing, sound design layering, and title/graphic integration prior to project delivery.

Requirements:

• Professional Video Editing Experience: 3+ years of dedicated post-production experience working with cinematic, commercial, or high-end brand media (general social media clippers will not be considered).

• DaVinci Resolve Mastery: Advanced proficiency in DaVinci Resolve, specifically across the Edit and Fairlight pages, with expert-level knowledge of the Color page (node structures, color management, and matching).

• Cinematic Storytelling & Portfolio: A strong portfolio demonstrating advanced narrative editing, dynamic pacing, seamless sound design, and elevated color grading.

• Autonomous Execution & Detail: High self-direction with the ability to follow creative direction, replicate established visual aesthetics, and maintain strict quality control without daily supervision.
