Short Form Video Editor & Graphic Designer for US Entertainment Marketing Agency
Reviewed by Talented TeamApplication Deadline: July 28, 2026
Create short-form content and graphics for comedy clubs and live venues across the US. A US entertainment marketing agency working with major stand-up comedians, podcasters, and creators needs a Video Editor & Graphic Designer who thinks like a content marketer, not an assembly-line editor. You'll turn long-form footage into scroll-stopping clips, build promo and ad graphics that drive ticket sales, and package everything for Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube. This is high-volume and fast-paced, but it lives or dies on taste: knowing where to start a clip, when to cut, how to build curiosity and retention, and how to maximize a joke's performance without ever breaking it. Being able to consume comedy and understand joke structure is non-negotiable.
