We’re looking for multi-skilled motion graphics designer and video editor who is passionate about films and videos and social media storytelling through spot-on video communication. You should be excited about creating videos for all screens from the cinema to a phone and on all current (and upcoming) social media channels. You’ll be able to move quickly (aka at the speed of the internet’s attention span) to create awesome videos, graphics, cinemagraphs and GIFs that will make people want to watch the awesome films and videos by our filmmaker community. You’ll work primarily with our marketing and editorial team to ensure that all of the videos and products we promote are represented in the most beautiful way possible.
What you'll do:
• Create compelling video assets—think teasers, trailers, product promo videos, sizzles, animated GIFS, Snapchat stories, video loops, bonus clips, idents, bumpers, short films—that will make people want to watch the best videos on the internet and love Vimeo even more than they already do
• Collaborate closely with the marketing team to establish the Vimeo motion language—and ensure that it vibes seamlessly with the incredible videos by the individual filmmakers we’re promoting
• Evolve Vimeo’s brand to expand audience reach and help position Vimeo as a global brand representing the home for the world’s best videos and the awesome people who make them
• Ensure brand consistency for a fast-paced and continually evolving online viewing destination
• Push the boundaries (and be willing to take some risks) to make Vimeo’s video communication as innovative and cool as the videos we’re sharing
Skills & knowledge you should possess:
• Visual chops and the technical skills to match
• 2+ years of experience as an editor and/or motion graphics designer
• Fluency in After Effects or a similar motion graphics package
• Experience in storytelling through standard social media sites, and a fearless approach to adapting video content for new platforms
• A deep passion for brand integrity — you should consider yourself a staunch defender of brand values and guidelines
• Experience working as part of a collaborative team of marketers, writers, editors, and designers
• An ability to receive art direction and feedback fluidly and without trepidation, but the confidence to speak up and voice your opinion while defending your decisions
• Be a perennial self-starter who can move quickly to get things done, even without explicit requirements and direction
• An online reel or portfolio or samples of work demonstrating relevant experience
Bonus points:
• Ability to write, shoot, and producer
• Familiarity with lighting and production techniques
• Familiarity with video-based or subscription products.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
• That rare ability to #inspire those around you.
• Familiarity with (and/or an undying love for) the Vimeo brand visuals, verbosity and social media channels.
