Tasks this hire takes on

Course editing is a repeating spec: same titles, same caption style, a lesson out the door.

  • Cut a lesson recording to the outline you already taught.
  • Add captions, lower thirds, and the intro you approved.
  • Remove dead air and match audio from the recording you sent.
  • Pull short clips from a long lesson for the channels you named.
  • Export the file spec the course platform asked for.
  • Post a review link and make the changes you mark.

Tools they work in

Match the editor to the software your project files are already in.

  • Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or DaVinci Resolve.
  • A caption workflow you agree in week one.
  • Frame.io, or a shared review link.
  • Google Drive or Dropbox for footage.
  • The export notes for Teachable, Kajabi, Thinkific, or whichever host you use.

How the hire works

  1. You share a finished lesson you like and the raw file for the next one.
  2. We shortlist full-time video editors in the Philippines.
  3. The trial week is one lesson cut to your spec, with a replacement or refund if it is not the edit you wanted.
  4. They edit. You still teach and you still own the offer.

An editor does not write the course or run the launch. If you also need email and the promo calendar, that is the marketing assistant seat.
