FREELANCE EDITOR FOR A WORLD RECORD-BREAKING ELECTRIC SKATEBOARD JOURNEY
AKA: Help Us Turn One Guy’s Insane Cross-Country Skateboard Adventure into Internet Gold
We're looking for a wizard of short-form video content to jump aboard an incredible and brilliant viral-ready project of the year. A 30-year-old legend is attempting to skate from the West Coast to the East Coast of the USA on an electric skateboard — and he’s doing it as fast as humanly possible to break a world record.
Yes. You read that right.
Yes. It’s as amazing as it sounds.
We’re managing the full social media activation and more — and now we need a fast, creative, story led Adventure loving freelance editor to help us create and pump out daily bangers across TikTok, Instagram Reels, Facebook, Snapchat, and wherever else people scroll for joy.
The role
* Take raw footage from the road and turn it into scroll-stopping, laugh-out-loud, cry-a-little, “WTF did I just watch” content .
* Work daily (yes, daily) to create and post 1–2 edits that follow the story as it unfolds. Think: day-in-the-life meets extreme sports meets internet chaos. More creative clarity and guidance to come on this
* Edit with platform-native flair. Fast cuts, clever captions, hooks in 0.3 seconds. You get it.
* Collaborate with a small, nimble team who care about quality, vibes, and making viral magic.
* Help shape the tone and style of the whole journey — this is your playground too.
What you will need:
* Have serious editing chops in CapCut, Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or whatever black magic you use.
* Speak fluent TikTok/IG/Snap/short-form internet. (If you’ve ever used the word “rizz” unironically, you’re halfway there.)
* Be FAST. This journey is happening in real time and social doesn't wait.
* Have great comedic and storytelling instincts. You can spot the moment in 2 hours of GoPro footage where he eats it trying to outrun a squirrel.
* Be chill under pressure and a joy to work with.
Details:
* Freelance contract — starting ASAP and running throughout the journey (approx. 4–6 weeks).
* Fully remote (unless you want to join on the road, in which case… )
* Huge opportunity to get your work seen by millions as the journey builds momentum.
* This is the kind of job you tell your grandkids about. Or at least your group chat.
TO APPLY:
Send us:
* A short note about who you are and why you’re into this.
* Links to short form edits or content you’ve worked on.
* Your favourite ever TikTok (yours or someone else's — we want to know your taste).
* Your day rate and availability.
Let’s make history — one skate push and one viral post at a time.
