• to Mid-Level Video Editor / Social Content Editor to join our growing production team.

We are a Colorado-based media production company specializing heavily in automotive, motorsports, branded content, social media, and long-form storytelling. We are looking for an editor who has a strong foundation, can step into existing projects, understand creative direction, and turn raw footage into polished, engaging content without requiring constant supervision. You do not need to know everything, and we are willing to help the right person grow. However, you should already be comfortable editing real-world client and social media projects at a professional level. What You'll Be Editing The majority of the workload will involve: Long-form YouTube videos Custom short-form Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts Short-form content pulled from longer videos Automotive and motorsports content Branded and commercial video content Interviews, podcasts, and personality-driven content Social-first video designed for Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, and other platforms Projects can range from relatively straightforward social edits to large, complex timelines with substantial amounts of 4K footage. What We're Looking For You should have: Experience editing both long-form and short-form video Solid proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro Working knowledge of the broader Adobe Creative Suite Experience with DaVinci Resolve is also welcome The ability to work independently once a project's goals and direction are established Good editorial judgment and storytelling instincts The ability to identify compelling moments from large amounts of footage A solid understanding of pacing, music selection, narrative structure, and creative decision-making Basic knowledge of color correction and working with Log footage An understanding of how content should differ between YouTube, Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and other platforms The ability to receive creative direction, feedback, and revisions without needing every editing decision dictated Strong organizational skills when working with large projects, footage libraries, timelines, and revisions Reliable communication and the ability to meet agreed-upon deadlines Social Media Knowledge Ideally, you also understand modern social content editing principles, including: Strong opening hooks Audience retention Pacing and pattern interrupts Captioning and on-screen text Platform-specific editing styles Current social media trends Meme and cultural awareness Turning long-form content into effective short-form clips Deep expertise in all of these areas is not required, but you should understand that editing for social media involves more than simply making a video look good. We want someone who understands, or is interested in learning , why people keep watching. Technical Requirements You must have your own PC or Mac workstation capable of professionally editing demanding 4K video projects .

Our footage may include:

4K footage 4:2:2 10-bit footage Log footage RAW and high-bitrate media Large multicamera or long-form timelines Projects containing hundreds of gigabytes of footage Your workstation needs to be capable of handling these projects reliably. Having your own high-speed SSD or editing storage is a plus, but C4 Productions can provide project drives when necessary. Because of the size of our projects, footage will generally be transferred through physical hard-drive handoffs rather than internet transfers . Location Applicants must be located in Colorado , with a strong preference for candidates in or near Colorado Springs . This position can be performed remotely, but you will also have the option to work alongside us at our location in Southern Colorado Springs . Reliable transportation is required for project-drive handoffs and occasional in-person collaboration. Additional Skills That Are a Plus These are valuable, but not mandatory: Automotive or motorsports knowledge After Effects Motion graphics Compositing Motion tracking Animated titles and graphics Advanced color grading Audio cleanup and mixing Thumbnail or graphic design experience Experience working with content creators or online personalities Experience helping grow a brand through organic social content Knowledge of YouTube analytics, retention, CTR, or content strategy Automotive knowledge is particularly useful because a significant amount of our work exists within the automotive and motorsports industries, but you do not need to be a hardcore car enthusiast to qualify. The Type of Editor We're Looking For We're looking for someone who can become increasingly independent as they learn our projects, clients, and creative standards. We want to be able to explain: The client The audience The objective The story The desired style Important footage or moments From there, you should be able to make creative decisions, build the edit, and bring us something thoughtful rather than waiting for instructions on every cut. There will be feedback, guidance, and collaboration. We are willing to teach and help develop the right person. At the same time, we need someone who already has enough editing ability to contribute immediately. Compensation & Schedule $15

• 30/hour depending on experience, portfolio, speed, and capability.

This is a 1099 contractor / freelance position . Expected workload will generally range from approximately 20-30 hours per week , depending on current production volume and project schedules. Workload may fluctuate. We are looking for someone who can start as soon as possible . Growth Opportunity We are not simply looking for someone to complete a handful of edits. C4 Productions is growing, and we would ideally like to find an editor who wants to grow with the company. For the right person, this role could expand into greater responsibility within post-production, content strategy, client projects, and potentially a future Lead Editor or Post-Production leadership position . We want to help the right person improve their skills, take on larger projects, and earn increasing creative responsibility as they demonstrate their capabilities.
