About this role

Position Type: Full-time Location: Philippines (Remote) Schedule: PST ABOUT THE COMPANY Our client is a fast-growing creative studio building an always-on editorial team. They produce short-form social content and vertical episodic drama at volume for top-tier clients, including a premium apparel brand and an entertainment platform aiming to become the "Netflix of gaming." Operating with a philosophy of "thoughtful output," our client balances high-volume production with a deep care for every single piece of content created.

ABOUT THE ROLE We are seeking a Gaming Video Editor (Narrative & Short-Form) to serve as the narrative engine of a specialized offshore production pod. Reporting directly to the Directors of Editorial, this role is dedicated to cutting episodic, serial short-form micro-dramas shot in-engine (Roblox, Fortnite, GTA, Minecraft). The ideal candidate combines deep gaming culture literacy with sharp narrative storytelling instincts to hold audience attention across serialized episodes.

RESPONSIBILITIES - Edit 60-to-90-second vertical, serial micro-drama episodes from raw in-engine gameplay and creator footage. - Manage end-to-end story edits, sound design, color grading, and on-screen graphics for episodic drops. - Pace episodes to maximize viewer retention, focusing heavily on cold opens, narrative turns, and cliffhangers. - Maintain strict process discipline: accurately name assets to project taxonomy, tag, file, and deliver cuts with concise notes.

- Work efficiently across defined effort tiers, knowing when an edit needs a 1-hour story polish versus a quick trim. - Flexibly cover social, hype, or brand editing tasks for pod teammates during heavy production weeks. COMPETENCIES AND QUALIFICATIONS MUST-HAVE - Gaming Literacy: Active player/enthusiast in gaming culture, specifically Roblox, Fortnite, GTA, and Minecraft. Intuitively understands community tropes, "flex" moments, and platform nuances.

- Narrative & Story Instinct: Proven experience cutting serialized short-form drama, vertical narrative formats (e.g., ReelShort, DramaBox formats), or story-driven gaming content. - Pacing & Sound Design: Strong instinct for music choice, audio leveling, and cut timing that builds narrative tension without relying on generic stock audio. - Technical Proficiency: Fluent in Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve (learning on the job is not permitted).
