Job Description

We're Hiring the Best Freelance Video Editor

At Trueframe, we craft magnetic personal brands for founders and CEOs through premium video content. We don't just edit videos, we build world-class visual narratives that make our clients impossible to ignore.

We're looking for an editor who can turn raw footage into content that stops the scroll and starts conversations. This isn't about applying templates or following trends. It's about creating content so good that viewers save it, share it, and come back for more.

What You'll Do:

• Transform raw footage from high-profile founders into polished, high-retention content
• Edit 3-8 videos per week across long-form and short-form formats
• Own the entire post-production process: color grading, sound design, motion graphics
• Identify moments in footage that reveal authentic personality and amplify them
• Create content that performs — not just looks good
• Collaborate directly with our creative team to refine storytelling approaches
• Maintain fast turnarounds without sacrificing quality (24-48 hour delivery windows)

What We're Looking For:

• 3+ years editing for personal brands or business content (not just pretty montages)
• Portfolio showing content that actually drove results — views, engagement, conversions
• Mastery of Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve
• After Effects for motion graphics
• Understanding of platform-specific optimization (what works on LinkedIn vs YouTube vs Instagram)
• Ability to extract story from unscripted footage and talking heads
• Speed without compromise — you deliver fast and deliver quality
• Self-directed work ethic — we won't micromanage you
• Available for 20-40 hours per week initially

Compensation & Opportunity:

Payment is processed weekly for final

• videos including Base + Video Performance Bonus
• Consistent weekly workload with top-tier team & clients
• Direct path to part-time or full-time role for exceptional performers
• Work with founders doing $1M-100M+ in revenue
• Remote work with async collaboration

Our Standards:

We only work with editors who meet these non-negotiables:

Technical Excellence Your cuts are invisible. Your audio is crisp. Your graphics enhance, not distract. You know the difference between content that looks professional and content that converts.

Speed & Reliability When you commit to a deadline, it's done. No excuses. No delays. Our clients depend on us, and we depend on you.

Ownership Mentality You don't wait for feedback to know if something's good. You have taste. You make decisions. You improve the content beyond what was asked.

Results:

Your work will directly enable:

• Founders to build audiences of 100K+ engaged followers
• Content that drives real business outcomes (leads, deals, partnerships)
• Personal brands that become category leaders in their space
• Videos that get saved, shared, and referenced months later

Interested?

Send your portfolio and a brief note about why you're different from every other editor to us (bonus points if you send an intro video on why you're the best fit). Include links to at least 3 pieces of content you've edited that actually moved the needle for someone's brand. Lastly let us know if you're open for a paid trial edit.

We're not looking for someone who can follow instructions. We're looking for someone who makes content that matters.
