Social Video Editor Who Understands Philosophy & Storytelling

We’re looking for a thoughtful social video editor who can turn longer-form philosophical content into compelling short-form videos. We know a lot of editors use AI editing tools and AI assistants. That’s completely okay—use what makes you efficient. But we are not looking for someone who simply runs content through an AI editor and sends the output back. You must listen through the source material, understand what is actually being said, select the strongest parts, and make sure every final video looks polished, intentional, and good. The most important qualification is editorial judgment. You should genuinely understand philosophy and ideas well enough to recognize the most interesting arguments, tension, insight, or story in a conversation—and then shape those moments into a strong social video with a clear flow. What you’ll do: • Review the content we send and identify the best moments. • Edit clean, engaging social-media videos with strong pacing, captions, visuals, and audio. • Use AI tools where helpful, but personally quality-check the content and final edit. • Communicate clearly and improve the workflow with us over time. Volume: We may start around 1–2 videos per day at times, or roughly four videos per week. The exact cadence will develop as we learn what works together. Pay: We want to start at $25 per completed video. Once we establish a reliable workflow, we are open to discussing a single monthly fee. When applying, please send us the best social-media videos you have personally edited. Also briefly explain how you decide which moments from a longer video are worth turning into clips. If philosophy, podcasts, interviews, or thought-leadership content are already part of your experience, please mention that.
