Full Time Job
NOTE: This job is for a full-time editing position that works Sundays through Thursdays.
Do you have a passion for comedy? Did you spend countless late nights in college editing ridiculous videos for you or your friends? Fine Brothers Entertainment is looking for talented editors with a comedic background for our incredibly popular on-going web series.
Check out ''TheFineBros'' YouTube channel to get a feel for what you'd be editing.
Why Should I Apply?
The guys behind our YouTube channel are Benny & Rafi Fine. If you're not familiar with who they are, you must not spend a lot of time online. Our main channel alone has over 10 million subscribers, and well over 2 BILLION views so far. Oh, and we just won a Streamy for Best Editing and a Daytime Emmy for Best Viral Content.
In other words, our incredibly talented team of writers, assistants, editors & producers are continually producing solid tv-quality content online already; now it's your turn to help us grow even faster.
The Gritty Details:
We work Sundays through Thursdays, with Fridays and Saturdays usually off. You should think about that seriously before reading further. Our normal day is 9am to 7pm with an hour lunch. Our series are usually 6-9 minutes in length, and you will be the first person in the driver's seat for turning assembly edits into a complete episode. You'll be expected to be proficient in sound mixing and color correction as well, as we're looking for someone with the enthusiasm to really add some polish to their edits as they get them out the door (read: there is no online editor). This job is long hours sitting down staring at a computer screen, but hey, if you're really an editor that shouldn't be a turn off.
The Expectations:
You must know FCP7 and the CS6 Suite (most notably Premiere, AME, & Photoshop) like the back of your hand. In fact, probably better. Knowledge of After Effects is a huge plus. You must be comfortable working under tight deadlines and be willing to work through many rounds of notes on your final product. Our producers are perfectionists who know their product inside and out, and if your ego cannot withstand numerous rounds of feedback, or your final product being reworked again by another editor, this is not the job for you. In addition, you should:
- Have reliable transportation to and from our offices in Burbank
- Be familiar with YouTube and the YouTube community
- Know why Final Cut is a dying technology, but be willing to work in it anyway
- Have an impressive editing resume of narrative comedic content (applicants must submit at least 1 recent example of their comedic post work)
- Know how to correctly pronounce ''meme''
- Be fluent on Mac OS X & basic Mac software
- Have a very understanding significant other who doesn't hold long hours against you
- Have a lifestyle that allows you to easily afford this entry-level editing position
- Have a great sense of humor
