About Company:
V.S.L Concepts is a dynamic business branding agency based in Nigeria run by top Creative Designer – Richard Esemuru. We found out that in a market full of competition, there is a need for a business to stand out from all others, thereby giving it a higher share of the market.
Job Description:
Are you a master of the "first 30 seconds"? We are seeking a Creative Video Editor to become the visual storyteller for our YouTube channel. This isn't just about cutting clips; it’s about engineering viewer retention. We need an editor who understands YouTube-specific pacing—using zooms, B-roll, and sound design to keep an audience hooked from start to finish. If you can turn raw footage into a polished, brand-consistent cinematic experience, this long-term partnership is for you.
Requirements:
1. Narrative & Retention Engineering
Storyline Optimization: Edit long-form videos (5–18 mins) with a focus on narrative flow, ensuring the "hook" is impactful and the pacing prevents viewer drop-off.
Micro-Content Creation: Repurpose long-form content into high-energy YouTube Shorts that drive channel discovery.
Visual Pacing: Implement dynamic zooms, pans, and transitions to maintain visual interest throughout the video.
2. Technical Craft & Post-Production
Audio & Visual Polish: Perform professional color grading and audio enhancement (noise reduction, EQ, and leveling) to ensure a premium feel.
Graphic Integration: Add engaging captions, motion text, and curated B-roll to emphasize key points and maintain the "YouTube style."
Sound Design: Layer sound effects (SFX) and background music to evoke emotion and drive the energy of the edit.
3. Brand Alignment & Delivery
Style Consistency: Adhere to the channel’s specific brand guidelines, including font choices, color palettes, and recurring editing tropes.
Workflow Management: Deliver 8 long-form videos and 8 Shorts monthly, meeting strict deadlines to maintain the channel’s upload schedule.
Collaborative Iteration: Actively incorporate feedback from the creator to refine the editing style and improve performance metrics over time.
Qualifications and Skills:
Technical Toolkit
Software Proficiency: Expert-level skills in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, or CapCut Pro.
Pacing Mastery: A deep understanding of YouTube "hooks," "re-engagement points," and storytelling.
Infrastructure: Reliable high-speed internet for large file transfers and consistent communication.
Core Competencies
Detail Oriented: A "pixel-perfect" mindset regarding captions, transitions, and audio sync.
Communication: Ability to take constructive criticism and translate creative briefs into visual reality.
Experience: Proven portfolio of YouTube-style edits (vlogs, educational, or documentary-style).
Bonus Skills (The Advantage)
Motion Graphics: Proficiency in After Effects for custom animations.
Thumbnail Design: Ability to create high-click-through-rate (CTR) thumbnails.
SEO Knowledge: Understanding of how video titles and descriptions work with the edit.
