• Work closely with Promo Producers to turn concepts and scripts into strong final videos.
• Experiment with hooks, openings, pacing and scene combinations to improve the creative.
• Use creative feedback and performance learnings to improve your next edit.
• Maintain strong output and quality while working in a high-volume creative environment.
