Video Editor Motion Jobs in California (NOW HIRING)

Collier.Simon is an independent, full-service creative agency in the Los Angeles/Hollywood area. We work with our client partners to develop creative solutions that truly move the needle. Clients range from Fortune 500-type household names to up-and-comers across a variety of industries and verticals. We’re in the midst of a tech-powered transformation – using AI to supercharge creativity, not replace it – and we’re looking for people who are already exploring what’s possible.

We’re looking for a full-time Video Editor & Motion Designer with strong traditional craft who is actively experimenting with AI and emerging tools in their workflow. This is a hands‑on creative role – you’ll be editing and animating across a wide range of project types, with the majority of work being 16:9 for OTT and broadcast – and we want someone who is already thinking about how new tools and technology can make the work better and faster. You’ll be a core member of the creative team, partnering daily with our Creative Director, Head of Production, art directors, and copywriters.

You Might Be a Fit If You…

• Are equally comfortable editing long-form (:90) and short-form (:10) video and crafting polished motion graphics
• Have a strong eye for design, typography, and layout — not just cutting
• Can develop videos that communicate clearly whether sound is on or off — critical for OTT, PMAX, and other placements where audio may not play
• Are already integrating AI tools into your video and motion workflow and can speak to what’s working
• Thrive in a collaborative team environment and can also execute independently with minimal oversight
• Stay current on trends in video, motion, and AI-powered creative tools — and are actively testing new ones
• Work well under pressure and know how to prioritize in a fast‑paced, deadline‑driven environment
• Are excited to grow with an agency and invest in long‑term creative relationships with clients and teammates

What You’ll Do

• Edit video content across formats — with the majority of work being 16:9 for OTT and broadcast, plus sizzle reels, digital advertising assets, PMAX and other sound‑on/sound‑off placements, and occasional social and creator‑style edits — from inception through final delivery
• Design and produce motion graphics for broadcast, OTT, digital campaigns, and other channels, with an ability to craft work that communicates clearly whether audio is on or off
• Ensure all deliverables are on‑brand, strategically sound, and technically spec’d correctly
• Collaborate closely with the Creative Director, Head of Production, art directors, and copywriters throughout the creative process
• Present work‑in‑progress cuts and final assets to internal teams and clients as needed
• Maintain organized project files and adhere to delivery standards
• Bring AI tools and workflow thinking to the table — sharing what you’re experimenting with and helping identify opportunities to work smarter across video and motion production
• Contribute to building out and evolving our internal video and motion practices as the team and toolset grow
• This is a fully remote role that requires impeccable communication and the ability to thrive in collaboration

Requirements

• 3+ years of video editing and motion design experience in an agency, studio, or similar creative environment
• Expertise in Adobe Premiere and After Effects — these are non‑negotiable
• Experience collaborating in Figma
• Solid design fundamentals: typography, layout, composition, and motion principles
• Experience producing assets across a range of formats, including OTT/broadcast spots, digital advertising (including PMAX and other sound‑off environments), long‑form content, and social video
• Demonstrated ability to craft video that reads clearly both sound‑on and sound‑off (captions, kinetic type, visual storytelling, etc.)
• Ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously while maintaining quality and meeting deadlines
• Strong organizational skills and attention to detail throughout the production process
• Actively experimenting with AI‑powered tools for video and motion — whether AI‑assisted editing, generative visuals, automated workflows, or other emerging tools — and able to speak to your experience with them
• Available to work standard PST business hours

Benefits
