Preditor

Description

Nutopia is an award-winning independent production company behind some of the most ambitious documentary series on television. Our sizzle team's pitch reels are among the best in business - cinematic, pacy, fun, and built to sell scale.

We are now looking for a self-sufficient Sizzle Preditor and would love to hear from you if you fit the brief below.

This is a hands-on, end-to-end role, creating pitch materials that help bring Nutopia's biggest ideas to life: developing, shaping, and delivering work that makes commissioners and talent say yes.

START DATE & DURATION
ASAP start for an initial 4 weeks, with potential to become an ongoing long-term opportunity

THE ROLE
- Producing and editing sizzle reels from concept through delivery, under tight deadlines, within the team’s creative framework.
- Sourcing footage creatively and resourcefully.
- Writing and adapting scripts independently.
- Working-up content - not just cutting to a brief.

WE’D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU IF YOU ARE...
- A short form specialist - with a background in digital, sizzles, pre-titles, trailers, or commercials - with the proven ability to make something land in under two minutes.
- A strong writer - able to work out the logic of an idea, what it needs to say, and turn that into a tight, clear, effective script.
- Creatively resourceful - skilled at sourcing and re-purposing existing footage and sync in imaginative ways - to make ideas land clearly and with a sense of fun.
- Adept with GFX - experienced working with scripts in cards, with the ability to make them look polished and purposeful.
- Open to AI - familiarity with the latest AI image-generation tools would be an advantage but not essential as training can be given. What is essential is genuine interest in learning and integrating these tools into your workflow.
- A music-first editor - adept at working with (and re-shaping) trailer music to drive pace, emotion and humour.
- Self-sufficient - able to work independently, manage your workload and deliver to a deadline.

EXPERIENCE
- Proven track record in sizzle, trailer, commercial, or short-form digital editing
- Experience writing scripts and treatments, not just cutting to them
- Expertise in sourcing and repurposing materials
- An interest in or experience of digital first/You tube content, would be a bonus.

To apply, please share your CV, showreel and examples of sizzles or shortform content, stating your earliest availability. Please also specify your experience on Avid, DaVinci and Premiere.

As an equal opportunities employer, we welcome applicants from diverse and under-represented backgrounds.
