Trailer Editor: All Kinds of Beings (black-and-white documentary short, Lisbon)

"All those who have made me are present today." In Lisbon, where they say the earth shook the day she was born, a woman searches beneath the surface of her own life, and finds herself.

I'm looking for an editor to refine and finish the trailer for this ~20-minute film. The trailer will be used to raise funding for the film, in grant applications and conversations with potential partners, so it needs to convey the film's world and voice clearly as well as its mood. There's already a solid rough cut mapped to a shot-by-shot working script, and new footage and narration from a recent shoot in Portugal are coming in now. The job is refining and finishing, not assembling from scratch.

The right person is at home in a slow, observational, voiceover-led register (think Ida, Roma, and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5NFEWJjRpjs) rather than a fast-cut commercial style. Black and white is locked.

Compensation: a stipend of ~$200 to start, with room for more depending on scope and fit. It's best suited to an editor building a reel on a distinctive, festival-minded project, and it comes with a real credit. For the right person, this may grow into an ongoing relationship with the project.

To apply, send a reel or 1–2 links to your work closest to this register, plus a line on why the project interests you, to Ron Hamad at ronaldlhamad@gmail.com.

Trial Trailers (trial-trailers.com) is seeking junior editors familiar with DaVinci Resolve, Photoshop, and basic AI to assist with our projects.

We specialize in producing documentary-style media, typically around 20 minutes in length. We provide all necessary assets, review the work, and offer guidance from a top-tier filmmaker/director throughout the process.

Applicants must have a computer and a high speed internet connection at home.  Assets include photos, videos and AI created contend, must be familiar with translation and subtitles.

Serious candidates only; a casual work ethic will not be accepted. We are a small, fast-growing company with opportunity for those willing to work.

Interested candidates must be proficient with DaVinci Resolve and have an interest in documentary-style storytelling. Please email your interest to bz@trial-trailers.com.

This work is paid per project and takes a good editor one or 2 weeks; payment is $1,000.00 to $2,500.00 per project.  There is often a four-week window for completion, allowing for self scheduling.

We are looking for a UCLA film student or emerging filmmaker to help us film several short videos (1-5 minutes for content) and 10-15 minutes for educational purposes at my office in Beverly Hills. We need someone comfortable using a 35mm canon eos 90d camera and an iPhone, setting up shots, good angles, lighting and background in video editing.

This is a paid, entry-level opportunity that could lead to additional filming projects. If interested, please send your availability, a short introduction, and examples of your work to Katie at katiebkennedyy@gmail.com.

Looking for a videographer to help create short-form visual content built around unreleased music. The shoots will be kept small and straightforward, allowing the videographer to work independently.

Someone who can also edit independently would be ideal, but editing experience is not required.

This is paid work within an independent-artist budget. Anyone interested can send examples of their work or their Instagram page, along with their contact information, to meadowsfrank43@gmail.com. I’ll share the music and additional project details with them directly.

Young Storytellers is looking for volunteer mentors to help Los Angeles students to craft their own, unique screenplays based on their imagination and lived experiences. No experience writing or mentoring is required! Once these stories are complete, performers come and bring their stories to life at a Big Show, an in-school assembly that celebrates the hard work of our students and showcases their stories to their friends and family in the community.

What is Young Storytellers?

Young Storytellers equips young people to be the driving force of their own narratives. We’re passionate about bringing people together and creating stories to raise the voices of those who don’t often get heard. We believe that when a young person understands the power of their own story—made of their unique background, culture, race, gender, sexuality, ability, immigration status, geographic location, and economic status—it creates a more empathetic and equitable future for everyone. We raise voices, one story at a time.

Mentoring with Young Storytellers!

It only takes an hour a week, during your lunch break, to help a Young Storyteller tell their story. In our programs, public school students are paired with mentors (you!) to work with them as they imagine, develop, and write their own original story. At the end of the program, professional actors audition for the students and perform their scripts at an in-school assembly, called the "Big Show." 

What is the commitment? 

Your commitment will be an hour a week - during lunch hours - for 9 consecutive weeks. We're now actively placing volunteer mentors in our 30+ Los Angeles schools for this spring! Visit our Volunteer Portal to explore schools and schedules. You can select the sites that fit your needs and we’ll take it from there! 

What will you gain as a mentor?

Our volunteers tell us that the time they spend mentoring is the most fun they have all day and is even the highlight of their week! As a mentor, you will empower students and watch them grow. You'll also meet amazing people (other volunteers, like you) and build friendships that last a lifetime!
