What is a Temporary Non Linear Video Editor?

A Temporary Non Linear Video Editor is a professional who is hired for a short-term period to edit video content using non-linear editing (NLE) software. Unlike traditional linear editing, non-linear editing allows editors to access any frame in a digital video clip regardless of sequence, making the process more flexible and efficient. These editors typically work on projects such as commercials, TV shows, films, or social media content, and their contracts usually last for the duration of a specific project or a set timeframe. They are skilled in using software like Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or Avid Media Composer. Temporary roles may be offered by production companies, broadcasting studios, or freelance opportunities.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Temporary Non Linear Video Editor, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Temporary Non Linear Video Editor, you need expertise in video editing, storytelling, and a strong grasp of timing and visual composition, typically supported by a degree in film, media, or relevant experience. Mastery of industry-standard non-linear editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, or Avid Media Composer is essential, and familiarity with audio editing tools and color grading systems is often required. Attention to detail, creativity, and the ability to collaborate under tight deadlines are crucial soft skills for success. These abilities ensure the delivery of high-quality, engaging content that meets client specifications and project timelines.

What are some common challenges temporary non linear video editors face when joining new projects or teams?

Temporary non linear video editors often encounter challenges such as adapting quickly to different workflows, software versions, and project organization styles set by various teams. Each production may have unique asset management systems, naming conventions, or editorial preferences that require fast learning and flexibility. Additionally, building rapport with new collaborators, such as producers and sound designers, is important to ensure smooth communication and feedback cycles, even within tight deadlines. Embracing adaptability and strong organizational skills can help editors succeed across diverse assignments.

Support online vendors on the global scale as the one-stop-shop for motion design and video editing.
RUN Studios, and its client partner, a large online retailer headquartered in Seattle, are seeking a Motion Designer / Video Editor to join our creative team as a dedicated contractor for a 3-month project. This is a hybrid position, requiring multiple days onsite in Seattle, WA.
This role is responsible for designing, animating, and editing video content end-to-end - from concept through final delivery. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable building motion graphics from scratch as they are editing live-action footage.
As a Motion Designer / Video Editor, You Will
  • Design and animate video content end-to-end, including concept development, storyboarding, asset creation, animation, and final output.
  • Edit live-action and mixed-media video projects (non-animation), including cutting, basic color correction, basic audio leveling, and finishing.
  • Create motion graphics, lower thirds, transitions, and visual effects for social media and digital platforms.
  • Collaborate with producers, editors, and stakeholders to translate creative briefs into polished video deliverables.
  • Maintain brand consistency across all visual outputs.
  • Manage multiple projects simultaneously while meeting deadlines.

In This Role, You Bring
  • 3+ years of professional experience in motion design and video editing.
  • Strong portfolio demonstrating both animation/motion graphics work and live-action video editing.
  • Ability to take a project from initial design concept through final animated delivery without supervision.
  • Understanding of storytelling, pacing, and visual hierarchy.
  • Experience creating content for social media platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, etc.).
  • Excellent time management and ability to work within structured production timelines.
  • In-depth understanding of the following tools:
    • Figma - UI/UX asset design, layout creation, and collaboration with design teams.
    • Adobe After Effects - Motion graphics, animation, compositing, and visual effects.
    • Adobe Premiere Pro - Video editing, basic color correction, basic audio leveling, and final output.
    • Adobe Illustrator - Vector asset creation, icon design, and graphic development for animation.

Bonus If You Have
  • Experience with Adobe Express or similar rapid-content tools.
  • Familiarity with 3D animation or Cinema 4D.
  • Experience working within brand guidelines for large-scale organizations.
  • Knowledge of current social media video trends and best practices.

Additional Position Details
  • Supervisory Responsibilities
    • None.
  • Physical Demands
    • Prolonged periods of sitting at a desk and working on a computer.
  • Work Environment
    • Typical for an office setting or home environment.
    • Hybrid remote/onsite in Seattle, WA.
  • Travel
    • None.

At RUN Studios we recognize our ultimate success depends on our talented and dedicated workforce. We understand, value, and are grateful for the invaluable contributions made by each employee. Our goal is to provide a comprehensive program of evolving competitive benefits specifically designed to support the needs of our employees and their dependents.
Compensation
Pay Range: $70.00 - $85.00 (Hourly)
The successful candidate's pay will be based on various factors such as individual qualifications and work location.
Benefits:
Benefits and perks may vary depending on location and nature of the work, but eligible employees have access to medical, dental, vision, life, and AD&D benefits, health savings and flexible spending accounts, other telehealth and wellness benefits, a minimum of seven paid holidays per year, accrual of at least 6.5 days (Temporary Employment) to at least 15 days (Regular Employment) of paid time off per year, a 401k plan with company match, discretionary bonuses dependent on company, team or individual performance, and referral bonuses for eligible hired referrals.
