Video Editor 🔥


Edit videos for progressive causes.

Block by Block Creative helps nonprofits, campaigns, NGOs and other mission-driven organizations connect to audiences through creative storytelling.

As we expand, we now seek a contract video editor to support a wide range of activities.  The ideal editor has an interest in the progressive issues our clients work, on including reform of the criminal justice system, Indigenous rights, forest conservation, tackling misinformation, disability rights, and more. 

The editor is, simply put, in love with editing. Someone who can take content from a variety of sources - from Zooms to mobile phone to cinema cameras - and mold it into compelling, impactful stories. Someone who is not afraid to try new things. Someone who enjoys bouncing ideas off of collaborators. And someone who can hit deadlines consistently.

The editor is an expert in Adobe Premiere and other Adobe Suite apps, with a recent model Mac computer and solid internet connection.
