Remo Video Editor

We are seeking a skilled video editor to adapt successful US advertising content for the Italian market under our brand, KOMPRESS. The role involves working with original US ads by replacing English audio with Italian voiceovers, adjusting video timing to match the Italian script, and ensuring all on-screen text and branding align with our guidelines. This position begins with a trial project to assess your ability to deliver high-quality work promptly. Successful candidates will have the opportunity for ongoing collaboration, handling multiple videos weekly, and eventually creating original ads using AI tools.

Key Responsibilities

- Replace original English audio tracks with provided Italian voiceovers without altering the audio speed.
- Edit and re-time video footage so that visuals correspond accurately to the Italian audio, accommodating longer dialogue by trimming, extending, or reordering shots.
- Completely cover English subtitles burned into the video with Italian subtitles, ensuring they are synchronized word-for-word, limited to two lines, and do not obscure faces or products.
- Replace or cover any other English text appearing on screen with Italian equivalents or appropriate graphics.
- Remove all visible references to the original brand name "KOPREZ" and replace with "KOMPRESS," flagging each occurrence for review.
- Leave product packaging as is initially, but replace any large on-screen brand logos, overlays, or end cards with KOMPRESS branding.
- Ensure the original brand name is never audible in the audio track.
- Maintain the call-to-action (CTA) on screen in sync with the voiceover.
- Export final videos in 9:16 aspect ratio (1080x1920), MP4 format.
- Deliver completed videos within 48 hours via file-sharing platforms.
- Provide a brief summary (2–3 lines) explaining the changes made and the total time taken for each project.

Required Qualifications

- Proven experience editing and localizing video advertisements, preferably adapting US ads for European markets.
- Strong skills in video editing software and subtitle synchronization.
- Ability to manage timing adjustments without compromising audio quality.
- Attention to detail in covering or replacing on-screen text and branding elements.
- Reliable time management to meet tight turnaround deadlines.
- Willingness to complete a trial project demonstrating these skills.

Preferred Qualifications and Benefits

- Experience working with longer video sales letters (VSLs) of approximately 3 minutes.
- Familiarity with AI tools for video creation is a plus, as future projects will include original ad production from scripts.
- Opportunity for long-term collaboration with potential to take on expanded responsibilities, including sourcing and validating winning US ads and managing the entire adaptation process independently.
- Flexible workflow with an initial volume of 2–5 videos per week and 24–48 hour turnaround times.
- Clear communication and openness to feedback to ensure alignment with brand standards.

Candidates are encouraged to clarify any uncertainties before starting the trial. Please confirm your rate per video for both short ads and longer VSLs when applying. This role offers a unique chance to grow within a dynamic company focused on delivering localized, high-impact advertising content.
