This position has been closed. No items found. Posted September 18, 2026 Contract Anywhere Remote We're hiring someone to make short videos for our game, Birds of War on TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. We want someone who can spot a funny/epic moment, come up with an angle and turn it into a video people send to their friends. You'll help come up with the ideas as well as edit them.

What you'll do

  • Pitch video ideas and write short hooks or scripts.
  • Find the best moments in gameplay footage, especially proximity chat and things going wrong.
  • Edit clips with tight pacing, readable captions and sound that helps the joke land.
  • Make gameplay videos, memes, feature clips and replies to community comments.
  • Try different openings and cuts. Use the results from posted videos to improve the next batch.
  • Deliver finished videos ready for us to post, with organised project files.
  • Find already viral videos from other games and see how we can create a similar angle

What we're looking for

  • A portfolio of short videos you've made. Gaming content is a must
  • A good ear for comedy and a feel for when to cut. Know when a clip is funny enough to leave alone.
  • Ability to make a video understandable to someone who's never heard of the game.
  • Confidence editing in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut or a similar editor.
  • Clear communication, reliable turnaround and willingness to work through feedback.
  • Someone who brings ideas without needing every shot explained.

Bonus skills

  • Capturing clean gameplay footage yourself.
  • Writing or recording voiceovers.
  • Experience making content for a game or growing a gaming account.
  • Simple motion graphics and thumbnail design.
