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
Why You’re a Fit ❓
You’re
NYC-based
and can be
flexible + on-the-go
You can shoot and edit at a high level —
and
you can
produce/direct , not just execute
You’re deeply plugged into
what’s trending
and know how to adapt trends to a brand
You’re highly skilled in
CapCut
(and comfortable moving fast in post)
You own your own
camera + lighting equipment
and can run a nimble set
You have strong
taste , but you’re also performance-aware and iteration-friendly
You’re extremely organized, communicative, and accountable
You collaborate well and enjoy building with a team
Bonus points DTC / consumer brand experience
You’ve built repeatable content systems (series formats that scale)
You’re comfortable with both UGC-style speed and premium brand storytelling
Why You Should Join ULTRA
Build at the front edge.
Ultra is scaling fast, and content is a major growth lever — you’ll be close to the engine. Portfolio-defining output.
You’ll create a high volume of real work that ships, performs, and evolves quickly. Creative ownership.
High trust, high standards — you’ll have room to lead, not just assist. Path to full-time.
If you’re the right fit, this role can become a full-time position as we grow. Benefits and Perks
This role begins as
freelance/contract . If/when it converts to full-time, benefits include medical, dental, and vision coverage, HSA access, a 401(k), a Bathhouse membership for recovery and reset, and unlimited PTO.
