Video Producer

This position requires a presence in New York

The Real Deal is seeking a highly skilled Video Producer / Shooter / Editor to join Brand Studio and help create premium branded video content for digital, social and custom content campaigns.

This is a hands-on production and post-production role for someone with strong technical filmmaking skills and a sophisticated eye for editing. Working alongside the Director of Brand Studio, this person will help translate creative concepts into polished, visually compelling video—from production through final delivery.

The Director of Brand Studio will typically serve as the creative lead and director on set. The Video Producer / Shooter / Editor will be a key creative partner responsible for executing that vision through cinematography, production expertise and especially post-production.

We’re looking for someone who understands that great post-production goes beyond assembling footage: performance, pacing, sound, music, B-roll, graphics and visual rhythm all work together to elevate the final story.

• Serve as a lead camera operator and technical production partner on Brand Studio shoots.
• Collaborate with the Director of Brand Studio on shot planning, visual approach and production execution.
• Translate creative direction into thoughtful cinematography and visual coverage.
• Capture interviews, properties, architecture, lifestyle, events and documentary-style footage.
• Build and operate professional camera, lighting and audio packages.
• Make informed technical decisions around camera settings, lenses, lighting, audio and production workflow.
• Anticipate coverage needs and capture the B-roll, establishing shots, details and transitions necessary to build a polished edit.
• Troubleshoot technical and production challenges efficiently on location.
• Help coordinate equipment, crew and production logistics when necessary.
• Maintain a high technical standard across productions ranging from efficient small-crew shoots to premium productions.
• Edit premium branded videos from raw footage through final delivery.
• Work from creative direction, interview material, briefs and production notes to develop strong first cuts.
• Shape interviews and footage into clear, engaging edits with strong pacing and visual structure.
• Make thoughtful editorial choices around selects, B-roll, music, sound design, graphics and transitions.
• Collaborate closely with the Director of Brand Studio throughout the edit while bringing independent editorial judgment and solutions to the process.
• Understand both the narrative and visual intent of a project and translate that direction into the edit.
• Create multiple deliverables from a single production, including approximately 2–5 minute hero videos, 60–90 second edits and short-form social cutdowns.
• Reframe and adapt content thoughtfully for 16:9, 9:16, 1:1 and other platform-specific formats.
• Handle color correction, audio cleanup, music editing, graphics integration and finishing.
• Collaborate with motion designers or other post-production specialists when projects require advanced graphics or animation.
• Incorporate internal and client feedback efficiently while maintaining creative and technical consistency.
• Prepare final masters and platform-specific deliverables.

• Maintain organized Premiere projects, footage and post-production files.
• Follow established media-management, backup and archival workflows.
• Prepare projects so another editor can easily open, understand and continue the work.
• Help establish efficient production and post-production workflows as Brand Studio's video capabilities grow.
• Maintain consistent technical and creative standards across the studio's video output.
