The Role
We're looking for a Senior Video & Motion Editor to set the standard for motion and video outputs at Flight3. This role is ideal for someone with a strong foundation in both video editing and motion design, someone who can craft compelling narratives through edit, pacing, sound, and animation.
This is a fast-paced environment where priorities shift quickly and deadlines are tight. You'll need to thrive under pressure while keeping quality high. This role blends direction, creative vision, and hands-on technical expertise in both editing and motion to ensure our work excites audiences and communicates complex ideas with clarity.

Lead dynamic storytelling: Shape how Web3 brands use video and motion to engage, educate, and inspire audiences.
Collaborate with innovators: Work with leading blockchain projects and a world-class creative team.
Drive creative excellence: Set the benchmark for video editing and motion craft at Flight3.
Stay ahead of the curve: Experiment with new tools, editing techniques, formats, and visual languages.
Responsibilities
1. Strategy & Planning
Define video and motion frameworks, templates, and workflows that ensure scalability and efficiency.
Conceptualise storytelling approaches that combine strong editing, sound design, and motion to strengthen brand campaigns.
Identify opportunities to apply emerging video formats (short-form, social-first, performance-led creative) to elevate client work.
2. Execution & Delivery
Produce high-quality video and motion assets across social, brand campaigns, product launches, and digital channels.
Lead projects from storyboard and edit structure through to animation, final delivery, and platform optimisation.
Oversee editing workflows including narrative pacing, music selection, sound design, and grading.
Balance hands-on editing and animation with leadership responsibilities to maintain creative excellence.
3. Collaboration & Communication
Work closely with the Creative Director and Client Leads to ensure video and motion outputs align with campaign objectives.
Partner with designers, copywriters, and strategists to integrate video seamlessly into multi-channel campaigns.
Present video edits and motion concepts to clients, confidently articulating creative decisions around pacing, storytelling, and performance.
4. Quality & Standards
Review and approve both video edits and motion design work, maintaining consistency and brand alignment across all outputs.
Establish quality control processes across editing, animation, sound, and final delivery formats.
Mentor motion designers and editors, developing craft across both animation and storytelling through edit.
5. Measurement & Improvement
Track approval and rework rates to measure efficiency and creative accuracy.
Analyse video performance metrics (where relevant) to refine storytelling and edit approaches.
Introduce new editing tools, motion workflows, AI-assisted techniques, and efficiencies that improve speed and quality.
Requirements
