What you'll do
Responsibilities
- Cut and publish social video for Dream Lab and Luma across TikTok, Instagram, LinkedIn, and YouTube, vertical and horizontal, at the team's target cadence.
- Find the hook, story, and structure inside raw footage from Dream Lab shoots, workshops, creator sessions, and partner projects.
- Turn Luma product moments (Ray3.2, UNI-1.1, Luma Agents) into tutorials and demos that make a complicated creative workflow look easy.
- Build motion graphics into the video, including text and logo animation that belongs to the piece rather than a preset dropped on top.
- Cut longer-form work: YouTube series episodes, project breakdowns, interviews and profiles of Dream Lab's team, creators, and partners, and original scripted pieces from assembly through picture lock.
- Version every piece for where it lands: cutdowns, teasers, trailers, aspect ratios, runtimes, captions, sound design, color.Unique
- Read the performance data after a piece publishes and change the next hook, format, or opening because of it.
- Keep footage, project files, graphics, music, and exports organized so the next edit starts fast instead of starting over.
- First 90 days: learn the footage library and content pillars while shipping social cuts in week one, hold the daily cadence, then build the templates and project structure that turn one shoot into many pieces.
What you'll need
Experience
- A portfolio is required and is the most important thing you will share: reels, TikToks, YouTube videos, and the accounts or channels you ran or cut for, showing videos you edited completely rather than one clip from a project you touched.Common
- 3+ years of professional editing focused on social-first content, digital storytelling, entertainment, or creative marketing.Common
- Advanced Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and Photoshop.
- Motion graphics you built yourself, including text and logo animation inside an edit.
- A point of view on what makes a social edit work: hooks, pacing, content pillars, and how viewership behaves differently on each platform.
- Command of pacing, structure, sound design, music, captions, and color correction, plus working knowledge of codecs, frame rates, and post workflows.
- Comfort with longer-form and narrative work; if you have cut scripted material, show the piece and say what you cut.Unique
- Self-starter habits: you can take footage to final delivery with light oversight and take notes well.Unique
- Nice to have: CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, or Avid alongside Premiere; motion graphics templates built for others to reuse; a channel or account of your own that you cut and grew; interest in AI and filmmaking.
