Position Description

As a Freelance Editor, you will shape the pacing, performance, and story of a production in the edit.

Duties may include but are not limited to:
1. Assembling and refining cuts from animatic through picture lock
2. Collaborating with Directors and Producers to develop pacing, rhythm, and story structure in the edit
3. Managing revisions and maintaining version control across the editorial process
4. Cutting to temp music and working alongside composers and sound designers as the track develops
5. Delivering exports and sequences compatible with Nehslo’s post pipeline

Required Skills & Experience

  • Proven editorial experience on animated, film, or mixed-media productions
  • Strong storytelling instincts and understanding of pacing, performance, and narrative structure
  • Ability to collaborate closely with Directors while maintaining editorial point of view
  • Experience managing a full editorial pipeline from assembly through picture lock
  • Clear and effective communication in remote, cross-departmental environments

Preferred (But Not Required)

  • Proficiency in Adobe Premiere, Avid Media Composer, DaVinci Resolve, or equivalent
  • Experience cutting animated or mixed-media content specifically
  • Familiarity with animatic and storyboard editorial workflows
  • Background in episodic, short-form, or commercial production pipelines

Details / Scope
