Ultra is looking for a

NYC-based freelance videographer + editor

who can

produce, shoot, and edit

high-performing short-form content at speed — with the

opportunity to grow into a full-time role . This is not a “show up and film” gig. We want someone who can take a creative direction, turn it into a shoot plan, direct on set, and ship edits that feel native to TikTok/Reels/Shorts — while still meeting Ultra’s bar for premium, performance-driven storytelling. You’ll work closely with Growth + Brand and be trusted to move fast, stay organized, and iterate based on real performance feedback. What You’ll Own

Creative Production & Direction

Produce and direct shoots end-to-end: concepts → shot lists → on-set direction → final exports

Help translate marketing goals into content systems (repeatable series, formats, hooks, and angles)

Maintain a strong point of view on what will win on social — not just what looks nice

Filming (DSLR + iPhone)

Shoot a mix of: Cinematic DSLR/mirrorless content

(lighting, composition, movement, product hero moments)

Native iPhone content

(fast, real, trend-aligned, “shot on phone” energy)

Capture clean audio and run-and-gun setups across NYC locations (office, streets, gyms, creator homes, etc.)

Bring and operate your own

camera + lighting gear

(and know how to use it efficiently)

Editing & Post (Trend-Forward)

Edit primarily for

TikTok / IG Reels / YouTube Shorts

Be fluent in

CapCut

and current social editing styles (pacing, text, cuts, templates, sound, memes)

Create multiple versions per concept (hook tests, cutdowns, CTA variants) and iterate quickly

Ensure exports are platform-ready and organized for handoff

Copy + On-Screen Text

Write strong hooks, captions, and on-screen text that drives retention and conversion

Collaborate with Growth on scripting frameworks and performance learnings

Systems, Organization & Collaboration

Keep a tight workflow: file naming, folder structure, versioning, deadlines, and clear communication

Work collaboratively with internal stakeholders and external talent (creators/athletes/partners)

Be reliable, responsible, and proactive — we move fast, and the work compounds
