About

We’re looking for an editor who understands story just as much as software. At The Next Something, we create cinematic, founder-led videos for startups, VCs, and fast-growing companies. Our style mixes documentary storytelling, tight pacing, motion graphics, and clean, modern edits. Here’s an example of the style we work in: https://www.linkedin.com/in/poloumali/ https://www.linkedin.com/posts/poloumali_extremely-excited-to-announce-the-launch-activity-7396004754855763968-TpJN?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop&rcm=ACoAADcAQn4BbJ9522Aa26d9rpZlcxgDUAcToJc We need someone who can take raw footage and turn it into something people actually want to watch. Someone with good taste, initiative, and an eye for pacing, rhythm, and narrative. You should be comfortable with: - Motion graphics and animated text that feels integrated (not template-y) - Fast-paced, social-ready cuts with strong sequencing - Colour grading and sound design fundamentals - Storytelling: taking a messy timeline and finding the through-line - Editing for founders, brands, and product storytelling Bonus if you: - Understand startup culture, tech, and VC content - Work fast and communicate clearly - Have examples of doc-style or branded content on your profile You’ll be a great fit if you: - Value clean aesthetics and strong narrative - Can work with imperfect footage and still create something premium - Care about the small details — pacing, flow, typography, music selection - Are comfortable collaborating, taking direction, and adding ideas We’re easy to work with, organized, and growing fast. If you can match or elevate the style in the example above, we’ll get on well. When you apply, please send 2–4 examples of your best work that show story, pacing, and motion graphics.
