Edit long-form video into multiple short-form variations for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Use Premiere Pro for narrative-driven cuts, After Effects for light motion graphics, and sound design to heighten emotional impact. Iterate and A/B test edits based on platform performance. Start part-time (per-video) with potential transition to a full-time retainer.
About the Role
Feel Your Soul and Jacob Zander are hiring a Narrative Short-Form Storyteller to turn long-form video (vlogs, brand content) into scroll-stopping short-form stories for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. You'll be the editor who finds the story inside raw footage and shapes it into something that performs.
What You'll Do
- Cut long-form video into multiple short-form variations for A/B testing and performance optimization
- Edit in Premiere Pro with strong narrative pacing and structure
- Build light motion graphics in After Effects to enhance storytelling
- Apply sound design that elevates the emotional pull of each edit
- Iterate based on what's performing across platforms
What We're Looking For
- Proven experience editing short-form content, ideally in a narrative/storytelling style
- Strong command of Premiere Pro; working knowledge of After Effects for motion graphics
- A clear understanding of sound design as a storytelling tool, not just polish
- Comfortable testing multiple cuts/hooks to find what performs best
- Based in the US or South America
Compensation & Growth
This role starts as a part-time arrangement (per-video rate) with a path to a full-time retainer position. (~$2,000/month)
Real opportunity for growth as the role and workload scale.

- Apply here
- Complete a paid assessment (compensated if selected)
