The role
This job is mostly post with some time on set. About 75% of your role is editing and owning our post-production workflows, including the media and cloud systems that keep footage moving. The other 25%, you'll run a camera on shoots.

You'll work directly with our department heads, shooters and freelance editors. We expect early-career candidates. Raw talent and ownership matter more than years on a résumé.
