The Vox Media Podcast Network is looking for a Video Editor to support its slate of news and culture shows, working across full-length episodes and shoulder content (including quote cards, clips, and behind-the-scenes videos).
The ideal candidate is meticulous and fast as a technical editor, understands how podcasts move through the modern media ecosystem, and has a strong sense of visual style along with a portfolio of conceptually bold work.
WHAT YOU’LL DO
- Execute the editing and visual post-production for full-length podcast episodes distributed on YouTube and video platforms.
- Translate the personality and pacing of digital creators' shortform videos into a distinct and elevated podcast aesthetic.
- Design and integrate dynamic motion graphics, lower thirds, captions, and visual cues that enhance narrative and tone.
- Ensure consistent visual branding through smart use of color, typography, and layout across both longform and shortform edits.
- Implement split-screen layouts, on-screen text, varied pacing and punch-ins, and other techniques that keep conversations visually engaging and viewer-friendly.
- Address mixed-location interviews (e.g., Zoom + studio) with creativity — ensuring cohesion and polish across footage types.
- Collaborate with hosts, producers, and showrunners to iterate quickly and deliver high-quality video content on a regular schedule.
