Flexible Audio Video Editing Jobs (NOW HIRING)

Job Summary

Charter., in partnership with Forge Virtual Studios, is seeking a motivated, detail-oriented Video Editing Intern who wants to develop their craft in a professional commercial environment.

This role is designed for someone who loves post-production, including organizing footage, assembling edits, refining stories, and preparing final exports. This is a post-production-focused internship rather than a general production or studio operations role. It is an opportunity for an aspiring editor to learn alongside an experienced creative team while contributing to real client work and internal content.

The Video Editing Intern will work closely with the Creative Director and other members of the creative team, supporting projects from media ingestion through final delivery. Projects will be scoped to the intern’s experience level, with regular mentorship and feedback. All client-facing work will be reviewed and approved by the Creative Director or an experienced editor before delivery.
