Freelance Video Editors / Motion Graphics Artist

We are seeking a highly skilled, efficient, and versatile Video Editor / Motion Graphics Artist to expand our freelance pool. In this role, you will craft high‑impact, persuasive video content for television and digital advertising, specifically within the progressive political and advocacy space.

This is not a role for casual, short‑form social media editing (e.g., TikToks/Reels). We need professionals who understand short‑form ad copy, know how to capture attention in the first 2 seconds, and can weave together compelling narratives, striking motion graphics, and clean post‑production under tight campaign deadlines.

Key responsibilities

Ad‑length content creation: Cut, pace, and deliver polished linear TVC and digital programmatic ads in standard formats: 30‑second, 15‑second, and 6‑second spots.

Motion graphics & compositing: Use After Effects, or Fusion, to build engaging TOS, dynamic lower thirds, data visualizations, and clean transitions that elevate the messaging.

Rapid turnaround: Deliver high‑quality first drafts within 1–2 days, executing revisions quickly and accurately.

Full Post‑Production: Take ownership of the edit from brief to final delivery, including sound design/audio mixing, color grading, and dialogue pacing.

Required qualifications

At least 4 years of both motion design and post‑production video editing experience.

High proficiency in Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro.

High proficiency in After Effects, or Fusion: mastery of animation principles, expressions, tracking, and compositing.

Strong foundational knowledge of color correction/grading, audio clean‑up, sound effects (SFX) placement, and audio ducking.

A holistic understanding of the entire production pipeline (from script and storyboard to legal clearances, archiving, and final delivery).

Ability to maintain a cool head and attention to detail during fast‑paced election cycles or rapid-response moments.
