**Freelance Podcast Video Editors Needed — Ongoing Remote Work (NYC Preferred)** NYC-based production company is looking for reliable freelance video editors to help with ongoing podcast post-production. This is remote, project-based work with a simple, repeatable editing workflow. NYC-based editors are preferred, but not required. We are currently hiring for two types of editing work: **1. YouTube Podcast Clips** You will receive full-length podcast episodes and follow our established editing formula to: * Identify individual discussion topics within the episode * Cut each topic into a standalone YouTube clip * Make sure each clip starts cleanly and ends on a strong cliffhanger * Create one thumbnail for each clip using our established thumbnail style/formula * Export and deliver the finished clip and thumbnail The editing itself is straightforward. Experienced editors should be able to move through the episodes quickly, including reviewing footage at 2x speed. **Rate:** * $20 per completed YouTube clip + thumbnail * $10 per completed YouTube clip + thumbnail if the finished clip is under 8 minutes **2. Social Media Clips** For social clips, our team will provide the exact timestamps.
