Video Editor & Storyteller

About Us

Backyard Collective is an un-agency shaping stories for brands through content, social media, branding, marketing, and new-age storytelling. We’re not chasing trends — we’re building narratives that make brands unforgettable. At the heart of this is video. And we’re looking for a video editor who doesn’t just cut clips, but crafts stories.

What You’ll Do

  • Editing with Speed & Precision
  • Deliver high-quality edits with quick turnaround times from brand films to reels, shorts, podcasts, and event coverage.
  • Maintain technical excellence across formats : sound, transitions, pacing, grading, and motion.
  • Storytelling through the Edit Table
  • Shape raw footage into powerful stories that flow seamlessly.
  • Work with rhythm, emotion, and cinematic pacing not just aesthetics.
  • Use your understanding of narrative arcs to elevate even short-form edits into experiences.
  • Cinematic & Contemporary Awareness
  • Draw inspiration from cinema and pop culture to push creative boundaries.
  • Stay sharp on what’s working in micro-content (reels, shorts, YouTube edits, podcast cuts).
  • Blend cinematic craft with digital-first energy.
  • Collaboration with the Creative Team
  • Be involved in pre-production ideation to set yourself (and the team) up for stronger post-production outcomes.
  • Work with directors, designers, and writers to ensure the edit aligns with the larger creative vision.
  • Suggest formats, transitions, and techniques proactively instead of only executing briefs.
  • Technical Mastery
  • Advanced knowledge of Premiere Pro / Final Cut Pro / DaVinci Resolve (and After Effects is a plus).
  • Strong skills in text animation, color grading, and basic motion graphics to elevate edits.
  • Ability to handle multiple projects simultaneously without compromising on quality.
  • Manage assets, workflows, and file structures for smooth collaboration.

What We’re Looking For

  • 2–4 years of experience in editing films, ads, or content across formats.
  • A showreel that demonstrates both storytelling chops and technical finesse.
  • Strong sense of pacing, rhythm, and music usage.
  • Awareness of global cinema references and digital-first editing styles.
  • Ability to think like a storyteller, not just an editor.
  • Agility to work on both long-form content and micro-content with equal strength.
  • Bonus : Experience in motion graphics, sound design, or experimental formats.
  • Why Join Us

  • Be the editor shaping films, reels, and stories for some of the most exciting brands, artists, and experiences.
  • Work in an environment that values experimentation and bold storytelling.
  • Collaborate with a tight, visionary creative team that wants you involved at every stage.
  • Build a portfolio that spans both cinematic and cutting-edge digital work.
  • Create a job alert for this search
