Freelance Senior Video Editor, Pitches & AI Generation - Creative Production

Klick • Philadelphia, PA

2h • Remote

About The Position

The Klick Group is seeking a senior freelance video editor to transform initial concepts into cinematic and emotionally compelling pitch films for pharmaceutical and healthcare brands. This fast-paced role involves working with various levels of creative input, from rough scripts to incomplete decks, and producing a range of video content including manifesto films, sizzles, campaign mood films, concept films, brand ads, highlight reels, montages, and TV-style executions. The editor will be responsible for sourcing, shaping, and generating assets using stock footage, archival materials, music, voiceover, sound design, and AI tools. While prior pharma experience is beneficial, the most critical attributes are strong taste, speed, storytelling ability, resourcefulness, and the capacity to make early-stage ideas visually clear, sharp, and impactful.

Requirements

• Senior-level editing experience in advertising, branded content, entertainment marketing, healthcare, or a similar fast-paced environment.
• A portfolio that shows strong, emotional storytelling, taste, pacing, and music sensibility.
• Expert-level Adobe Premiere Pro skills, plus working knowledge of After Effects and Creative Cloud.
• Practical experience with tools like Runway, ChatGPT, Claude, ElevenLabs, Gemini, or similar AI platforms.
• Confidence working independently from minimal direction.
• Strong asset sourcing, visual problem-solving, and communication skills.
• Comfort with pharma or healthcare-adjacent subject matter.

Nice To Haves

• Pharma, healthcare, life sciences, or regulated-industry experience.
• Motion design, typography, compositing, color, or sound design skills.
• Experience building AI-assisted workflows for fast-turnaround creative development.
• Experience supporting new business or high-pressure pitch cycles.
• Comfort and enthusiasm for using AI as a regular part of how work gets done.

Responsibilities

• Edit high-impact pitch films, sizzles, manifestos, concept films, and TV-style executions.
• Turn rough scripts, loose direction, or incomplete decks into compelling visual stories.
• Own pacing, structure, tone, music, imagery, typography, and sound with minimal hand-holding.
• Source and combine stock, archival footage, stills, music, SFX, VO, and provided assets.
• Use AI tools to generate or extend imagery, prototype scenes, build atmospherics, and explore voice, music, or sound options.
• Work quickly under tight pitch timelines while staying organized and craft-focused.
• Collaborate with creative, strategy, production, project management, and client service teams as needed.
