List
25 is one of You Tube's longest-running list-style channels with millions of subscribers and billions of views. We produce fast-paced, entertaining long-form videos packed with facts, storytelling, and energy. We're looking for an editor who can match that pace and take our production quality to the next level.

You'll edit long-form You Tube videos from raw footage to a polished, publish-ready final cut. You know how to keep a viewer engaged through smart pacing, well-timed graphics, and a tight narrative flow. Retention isn't just a metric to you - it's a craft.

• Edit long-form You Tube videos from rough cut to final export, ready to publish
• Sync voiceover, music, and sound effects to create a compelling audio-visual experience
• Add motion graphics, lower thirds, text overlays, and on-screen elements that match our style
• Maintain a strong sense of pacing - cutting to keep energy high and viewers watching
• Color grade footage for a consistent, polished look across all videos
• Collaborate with our script and production team on style, transitions, and visual storytelling
• Incorporate feedback quickly and efficiently across revision rounds

• Proven experience editing You Tube long-form content - portfolio links are required
• Strong understanding of You Tube retention: you know what makes viewers drop off and how to prevent it
• Proficient in Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or DaVinci Resolve
• Skilled at syncing narration-driven edits with b-roll, graphics, and music
• An eye for pacing - you instinctively know when a cut is a half-second too late
• Experience with motion graphics (After Effects a strong plus)
• Reliable with deadlines and comfortable working async in a remote team

• Familiarity with List
  25's existing style and format
• Experience with list-style or trivia/education You Tube content
• Basic sound design or audio mixing skills
• Ability to create or animate simple graphics without a separate motion designer
