  • Select and sequence stock footage to support storytelling and clarity.

  • Apply text overlays and animated typography to reinforce key ideas.

  • Use visual metaphors, icons, and symbols to explain concepts simply.

  • Follow strict clarity and storytelling guidelines to avoid visual clutter.

  • Collaborate closely with the team to refine narratives and visual flow.

  • Maintain consistency with defined visual standards and quality benchmarks.



Requirements
  • Proven experience editing short-form educational video content.

  • Comfort using AI image and/or video generation tools.

  • Strong understanding of pacing, rhythm, and motion-driven storytelling.

  • Ability to communicate complex ideas clearly through visuals.

  • Experience working with stock footage, text animation, and visual metaphors.

  • Strong communication skills and openness to collaboration.

  • Ability to follow structured creative guidelines and visual checklists.

Qualifications

  • Experience creating faceless video content.

  • Strong visual storytelling instincts with a clarity-first mindset.

  • Detail-oriented and highly organized editing workflow.

  • Long-term collaboration potential based on performance.
