How We Select Editors

We don't hire based on resumes, years of experience, or previous job titles.

Instead, we provide sample footage from a completed project and ask every applicant to edit it. This allows everyone to be evaluated using the same material, giving both new and experienced editors an equal opportunity to demonstrate their skills.

The sample footage is only for evaluation purposes. Your edit will not be used in any published content, promotional material, or client project.
