We have officially wrapped principal photography on "The Unit," a feature film shot on location in Monument, London. With production successfully concluded as of April 26th, we are now entering the post-production phase and looking for a dedicated Editor to join the core creative team.
This isnt just a "work-for-hire" gig; we are looking for a true storytelling partner who is passionate about the material and ready to help shape the final vision of the film.
The Role
As the Lead Editor, you will be responsible for:
* Managing all rushes and assembly from the recent shoot.
* Working closely with the Director to craft the narrative arc, pacing, and tone.
* Collaborating on the "final look" and feel of the feature.
* Bringing a fresh, critical eye to the footage to find the best performances and story beats.
Requirements
* Experience: Proven experience in editing narrative fiction (features preferred, but high-quality shorts or series work is welcome).
* Software: Proficiency in Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Avid Media Composer.
* Location: Ideally based in or near London for in-person collaboration, though remote work is negotiable for the right partner.
* Mindset: You are an artist who understands that the "final rewrite" of a film happens in the edit suite. You are comfortable working in an independent film environment.
Compensation & Partnership
This is a profit-share partnership. We are looking for someone who believes in the projects commercial and festival potential.
* Backend Equity: A defined percentage of the film’s net profits.
* Full Credit: Lead Editor credit on IMDb and on-screen.
* Collaborative Stakes: You will have a seat at the table for post-production decisions and festival strategy.
