Full Job Description

Treantly is a Canadian-based recruitment agency that facilitates the connection between businesses in North America and exceptional remote staff in the Philippines. We are looking for a creative, fast, and internet-savvy **Short-Form Video Editor / Livestream Clipper** who can turn long livestreams, recordings, and creator content into highly engaging short-form videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook. This is not a traditional video editing role where you simply follow a script. We need a **content hunter** —someone who can watch long-form content, spot the funniest, most emotional, awkward, intense, dramatic, or highly entertaining moments, and edit them in a way that makes people stop scrolling. The ideal candidate understands livestream culture, Twitch/Kick-style humor, TikTok pacing, meme formats, creator content, and how to make a simple moment feel more exciting, dramatic, or shareable without misrepresenting the original context. ### **Key Responsibilities** * Watch livestreams, recordings, and long-form videos to identify the strongest clip-worthy moments * Independently review 4–8 hours of raw footage daily to find high-retention hooks, emotional peaks, funny moments, reactions, or viral-style snippets * Turn long-form content into short-form clips for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Facebook * Edit clips to highlight emotion, tension, humor, conflict, excitement, awkwardness, or strong reactions * Use zoom-ins, jump cuts, captions, sound effects, memes, music, pacing, and visual emphasis to make clips more engaging * Create strong openings that grab attention within the first few seconds * Add captions, subtitles, on-screen text, emojis, motion graphics, and visual callouts when needed * Format videos properly for vertical viewing, especially 9:16 short-form platforms * Identify trending audio, meme formats, and viral editing styles on TikTok/Reels and apply them to creator footage quickly * Maintain the natural flow
