Motion Graphics Designer for YouTube Explainer Channel

We’re looking for a highly creative motion graphics designer / video editor to join our YouTube channel.

This isn’t a generic editing gig… we need someone with strong design instincts (ideally with a graphic design background) who can bring a voiceover to life using humor, basic animation, and creative transitions.

This is a team-based role, so you’ll need to follow detailed brand guidelines to keep every video visually consistent… even with multiple editors involved.

Videos will be similar to this channel. Please make sure you are ok with the subject matter before applying.

What You’ll Be Doing:
* Edit 1 video per week (10–12 minutes)
* Generate custom imagery using AI tools
* Animate scenes in After Effects that enhance the narration
* Follow a detailed brand style guide for characters, props, backgrounds, and pacing.
* Work from a voiceover + written script.

You Must Be:
* Proficient in After Effects and Photoshop
* Comfortable using (or learning) AI art tools
* A strong visual storyteller with good design instincts (Graphic design background preferred).
* Precise and consistent with styling and timing

This is a long-term collaboration with a solid, structured payment model and weekly video output. We're building a creative team… so if you love storytelling through motion design, we want to hear from you.

Please do not apply unless you have the relevant skills and access to the relevant software.
Applications without a cover letter will not be considered.

Please answer the following questions:

1. Which YouTube channels have you edited for in the past? (if any). Please attach 2–3 portfolio samples that show both your editing and visual design work.

2. Would you be able to consistently produce 1 high quality video per week and prioritise this project? Essentially this is a full time job.

3. This job has a fixed price per video. On average, how much would you charge for a 10 minute video?

4. Which AI image generating platforms do you have paid access to? (Eg: Midjourney, Gemini, ChatGPT)
