Why you use this?

one time flat price? & to tackle adobe monopoly?

It’s not Adobe.


Less bugs, less subscriptions, less drama, less terrible companies. Just as good at almost everything. Love Affinity.

Would you still accept an editor that uses Adobe Premiere?

I’d literally do this for free if I didn’t need money to survive.

Depends on the person! Ideally though we’d prefer Resolve for our workflow as that’s where our templates/effects/etc. already exist. But the editing required for this role is mostly just cutting clips and so for something on the simpler end almost any NLE will suffice. Just depends on the individual.

Hey everyone, applications are now closed as we are finalizing things for the position.

Thank you everyone who applied! Jonah and I spent spent hours this last week discussing candidates and were blown away by some of the work shared with us.

General PSA: The candidate we choose will start with a probation period before their identity is made public :slight_smile:
