• Perform final quality control on all audio and video deliverables, ensuring technical compliance with broadcast and streaming platform specifications.
• Manage project organization across shared Premiere Pro timelines in a multi-editor post-production environment.

What You Bring

• Strong motion graphics skills with the ability to design and execute polished show graphics independently.
• Experience with generative media tools such as Adobe Firefly or similar AI production tools is an added advantage.
