COMPLETE THE ASSESSMENT AND APPLY IF YOU HAVE:

• Strong sense for design, photo editing, and branding
• A strong sound design, colour grading, and audio mixing ability

WHAT SUCCESS LOOKS LIKE:

• You consistently deliver high-quality edits with meticulous attention to detail
• Your first cuts are robust and require minimal revision (if any!)
• You actively look for ways to improve content without being asked
• You anticipate roadblocks and resolve issues independently before escalating
• You meet deadlines consistently and flag potential delays early
• You bring fresh ideas, formats, and techniques to every project
