- Ensure all video edits are technically sound, creatively engaging, and effectively communicate the campaign message.
- Adhere to client brand guidelines, campaign-specific style guides, and platform best practices (e.g., social media safe zones, aspect ratios).
- Perform colour correction, sound mixing, and motion graphics to enhance video content.
- Manage and organise video project files, footage, and assets efficiently.
- Work quickly and efficiently to meet tight campaign deadlines without compromising quality.
- Collaborate closely with Producers, Campaign Managers, Strategists, Account Managers, and other relevant team members to ensure video content aligns seamlessly with overall campaign strategy and messaging.
- Collaborate with Producers to review edits, incorporate feedback, and make revisions as required.
- Prepare final video files for delivery in various formats according to client and platform specifications.
- Stay updated with the latest video editing techniques, software, and industry trends relevant to campaign content.
- Provide creative input and suggestions during the editing process to enhance storytelling and visual impact.
- Troubleshoot technical issues related to video editing software and workflows.
- Be able to watch edits and point out areas where graphics, context, or snippets can be added with the ability to find and insert them.
- Creatively review an edit, providing a fresh outlook on content with the confidence to offer ideas.
