Summary

Short-Form Video Editor / Motion Designer for Split-Screen SaaS Ads (Reels / TikTok) Job Description We are looking for a skilled video editor/motion designer to produce high-converting 9:16 paid social ads (Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts). The style matches top-tier AI/SaaS operator ads: a 50/50 split-screen layout combining talking-head footage (or 2D animated explainers) on the bottom with dynamic UI screen recordings, dashboards, and smooth motion graphics on the top. What You’ll Be Doing Editing raw talking-head footage: cutting dead air, color grading, and enhancing audio. Creating dynamic top-half visual sequences (UI mockups, zoom-ins, screen recordings, text callouts, kinetic typography). (Optional / Alternative) Creating full 2D motion graphics/animations when no live footage is used. Adding modern, high-retention animated subtitles (word-by-word highlight style). Delivering polished, platform-ready 9:16 vertical MP4s. Requirements Proven experience editing direct-response, high-retention B2B/SaaS paid social ads. Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut Pro. Strong eye for motion pacing, typography, and clean modern tech aesthetics. Fast turnaround time and clear communication. How to Apply Please share 2–3 portfolio links showing relevant short-form ads (specifically split-screen, UI/SaaS product demos, or kinetic typography). Generic portfolio reels will not be reviewed.
