It suits an experienced editor who has built a career shaping promotional content for large-scale entertainment IPs and is comfortable owning creative decisions from brief to delivery.

About the Role

The Senior Video Editor works within the Brand and Creative department alongside Motion Designers, Audio Specialists, Producers, and Game Capture Artists to produce high-visibility marketing content. Projects range from teaser trailers and full cinematic reveals to behind-the-scenes pieces and localized distribution cuts. Day-to-day work involves translating marketing briefs into editorial treatments, iterating on cuts with Creative Directors, and managing the post-production workflow from rough assembly through final delivery across multiple formats and platforms.

Key Responsibilities

  • Cut and iterate on promotional assets including cinematic trailers, gameplay reveals, teasers, and paid media, shaping narrative structure, pacing, and emotional arc from first assembly to locked picture.
  • Translate high-level creative briefs into editorial treatments, structure proposals, shot lists, and mood boards in direct collaboration with Brand and Creative Directors.
  • Partner with Game Capture Artists to develop gameplay sequences and define capture requirements, with occasional hands-on gameplay capture or editorial prototyping.
  • Oversee the full post-production workflow, coordinating integration of live-action footage, motion design, color grading, sound design, and music across each project.
  • Manage versioning and delivery for multiple formats, platforms, and localized markets, ensuring all outputs meet platform specifications, delivery codecs, and color and audio standards.
  • Mentor junior Video Artists through creative reviews and constructive feedback, and proactively identify improvements to internal editing workflows and post-production tools.

What You Bring

  • Substantial experience as a video editor with a credits history in promotional content, cinematic trailers, or high-end marketing for entertainment or gaming IPs.
  • Proficiency in professional post-production software, with strong command of industry-standard non-linear editing and finishing tools used in trailer and promotional editorial.
  • Demonstrated ability to work across the full post-production pipeline, including familiarity with motion design integration, color workflows, and audio finishing processes.
  • Experience managing deliverables across multiple distribution channels, platforms, and international markets, including format and codec specifications.
  • A portfolio that shows clear editorial judgment, with examples of pacing, rhythm, and storytelling in a promotional or cinematic context.
