About The Position

BuildWitt is seeking a creative and detail-driven Social Video Editor Intern to join Aaron Witt’s Brand team for Summer 2026. You’ll be editing real content for a large, engaged digital audience from day one—working directly with Aaron Witt’s Brand Director, Platform Strategist, and Vlog Director to shape stories that perform across Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, LinkedIn, Threads, and X. If you believe every cut is a creative decision and great pacing is everything, this role was built for you.

Requirements

• Intermediate experience with Adobe Premiere Pro (required), After Effects, Photoshop, Frame, and/or DaVinci Resolve.
• Understand pacing, hooks, and what keeps an audience watching.
• Organized and self-directed—comfortable working independently in a remote environment.
• Highly detail-oriented with audio mixing, color consistency, framing, and export settings.
• Familiar with short-form content trends and think critically about what performs and why.

Nice To Haves

• Ability to source and integrate music, memes, trends, sound bites, and internet culture naturally into edits.
• Genuine interest in construction, infrastructure, or the skilled trades—Aaron Witt’s world.

Responsibilities

• Edit short-form and long-form content across all major platforms—treating every clip as a story with a point of view.
• Craft retention-driven edits with strong hooks, intentional pacing, sound design, and motion graphics that elevate the story without overproducing.
• Create clean, modern graphic elements including text animation, lower thirds, transitions, overlays, maps, charts, and visual callouts that enhance clarity and engagement.
• Cut clips, reels, shorts, and sizzle videos from longer episodes with platform strategy in mind.
• Write clear, engaging captions that improve content visibility.
• Iterate on edits based on feedback, analytics, and platform performance insights.
• Maintain organized project files, timelines, and versioning across multiple simultaneous edits.
• Participate in brainstorming sessions to help shape content strategy before the camera rolls.
• Give honest feedback on what’s working—and what isn’t—in footage, structure, and pacing.

Benefits

• Hands-on experience editing content for a large, engaged digital audience.
• Exposure to multi-platform content strategy and performance analytics.
• Direct collaboration with an experienced content team who care about your growth.
• Real-world insight into performance-driven storytelling at scale.
• Paid internship: $16–$19/hr
