Video Editor Internship

 

About Elev8

Elev8 Real Estate Media creates high-performing real estate content across New England—listing videos, short-form reels, agent branding, and more. We care about clean storytelling, strong pacing, and a premium finish.

The Role

We’re hiring a Video Editor (Contractor) to turn raw footage into polished, scroll-stopping edits that match Elev8’s style. You’ll work closely with our team and be trusted to deliver consistently high quality on a fast timeline.

Contract Details

  • Pay: $20-25/hr
  • Turnaround: 24 hours for most assignments (from footage received to first delivery), unless otherwise agreed upon in advance
  • Revisions: Must be comfortable with feedback and able to turn revisions quickly

What You’ll Edit

  • Real estate listing videos and walkthrough reels
  • Short-form social content (typically 15–60 seconds, vertical 9:16)
  • Agent branding and lifestyle pieces

Quality Bar (Non-Negotiables)

  • Strong hook and pacing (the first 1–3 seconds matter)
  • Clean, modern captions and text hierarchy (readable, not cluttered)
  • Polished color and exposure consistency
  • Audio that feels intentional (balanced levels, clean dialogues, proper music ducking)
  • Smooth, confident editing choices (premium feel without “effects for effects”)

Responsibilities

Editing & Post-Production

  • Edit raw footage into finished videos with strong pacing, structure, and flow
  • Sync edits to music and natural audio where appropriate
  • Add captions, text overlays, and branding elements cleanly and consistently
  • Perform basic color correction, stabilization, and audio balancing
  • Stay current on short-form editing trends (Reels/TikTok) and replicate trends quickly while keeping Elev8’s style
  • Use AI tools thoughtfully to speed up workflows (captions, cleanup, asset generation) while maintaining a premium finish
  • Export and deliver final files in required formats

Collaboration & Workflow

  • Communicate clearly about timelines, questions, and progress
  • Implement feedback accurately and efficiently
  • Stay organized with files, versions, and naming
  • Be responsive during the edit window so we can hit the 24-hour requirement

Tools

  • Any non-linear editor (NLE) is fine (CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, etc.). We hire for results, not software.
  • Must be able to deliver clean captions/text, strong pacing, and polished color + audio.

Style References

We’ll share reference videos from media companies we love so you can match the pacing, polish, and overall feel.

Expectation: take inspiration from structure and style and match the quality bar. Do not copy exact shots.

What We’re Looking For

  • A portfolio that proves high-end editing skill (taste, pacing, polish)
  • Reliable and organized with consistent delivery
  • Comfortable receiving feedback and executing revisions quickly
  • Detail-oriented (caption accuracy, timing, clean design choices)
  • Stays on top of social editing trends and can execute them fast without sacrificing quality
  • Curious and up to date on AI tech in the content industry (and knows when to use it)
  • Real estate editing experience is a plus, not required

How to Apply

Email media@elev8.realestate with:

  • Resume or LinkedIn
  • A short introduction (a few sentences is perfect)
  • Links to 2–4 video samples (short-form preferred)
    • Include at least one example with captions/text overlays

Finalists may be asked to complete a paid short edit test from provided raw clips to confirm fit.
