Description: I’m looking for a skilled video editor who specializes in creating short-form sports content — specifically gym and basketball videos. The ideal candidate will understand pacing, rhythm, and storytelling that performs well on Instagram Reels and TikTok. Responsibilities: Edit engaging short-form clips (15–60 seconds) optimized for vertical platforms (Reels, TikTok). Edit workout and training videos to the beat of songs provided, ensuring the cuts, transitions, and effects match the rhythm of the music. Add captions, transitions, and effects that align with current social media trends. Cut and sequence footage to highlight athletic performance, training intensity, or game action. Maintain brand tone and visual consistency across all videos. (Optional) Assist with occasional long-form documentary-style projects in the future. Requirements: Proven experience editing sports or fitness videos (please include links to your work). Proficiency with Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve. Strong understanding of social media video trends, especially IG Reels and TikTok formats. Ability to sync edits precisely to music beats and tempo. Ability to deliver quick turnarounds while maintaining high quality. Creativity and attention to detail — each video should feel dynamic, clean, and professional. Nice to Have: Experience with color grading, motion graphics, or sound design. Background in documentary storytelling or long-form content. To Apply: Please include: A short introduction about yourself and your editing background. Links to at least 3 examples of your sports/gym/basketball short-form edits. Your average turnaround time.
