TikTok-Native Micro-Drama Video Editor

Location: Pakistan
Work Mode: Fully Remote
Employment: Full-Time
Schedule: Eight hours per day, Monday to Friday
Start Date: Immediate
Compensation: Based on experience, portfolio quality, and editing-test performance
About the Role
Clearprise is hiring a TikTok-Native Micro-Drama Video Editor for an international AI creative studio producing premium vertical dramas and branded entertainment.
You will work with AI-generated video drafts that are already approximately 90% edited. Your responsibility will be to transform these drafts into polished, publication-ready episodes by correcting editing errors and refining the pacing, captions, music, and sound effects.
The final output must closely match the fast-paced, emotionally engaging style used by DramaBox and similar vertical micro-drama platforms.
This is not a general social-media video-editing role. We need an editor who understands short-form dramatic storytelling, cliffhangers, emotional timing, dialogue pacing, and TikTok-native viewing behavior.
Key ResponsibilitiesMicro-Drama Editing
Edit and polish vertical micro-drama videos between 60 and 120 seconds
Match the pacing, structure, and emotional rhythm of DramaBox-style content
Tighten dialogue, reaction shots, transitions, and scene timing
Remove pauses, continuity issues, and distracting AI-generated errors
Preserve story clarity while maintaining fast-paced viewer engagement
Create strong openings, emotional beats, and cliffhanger endings
Captions and Sound Design
Add accurate, readable, and properly timed captions
Select background music that supports the mood and dramatic progression
Add impactful sound effects without overpowering dialogue
Balance dialogue, music, and sound effects
Use audio cues to improve tension, emotion, and retention
AI-Assisted Workflow
Work efficiently from AI-generated rough cuts
Identify and correct visual, timing, continuity, and audio errors
Adapt to a workflow where AI completes most of the initial editing
Maintain creative judgment rather than accepting AI output without review
Help improve the consistency and efficiency of the editing process
Quality Control and Delivery
Compare completed videos against provided reference samples
Maintain consistent pacing, captioning, audio, and visual standards
Complete assigned edits reliably and within deadlines
Organize project files and revisions professionally
Apply feedback quickly and consistently across future videos
Mandatory Requirements
Demonstrated experience editing TikTok-native or vertical short-form content
Strong understanding of DramaBox-style micro-drama pacing
Experience editing 60 to 120-second vertical videos
Strong captioning, music-selection, and sound-design skills
Ability to work effectively from AI-generated rough cuts
Ability to identify and correct small visual, timing, continuity, and audio errors
Strong storytelling instincts and attention to emotional pacing
Ability to follow references and match an established editing style
Reliable delivery and attention to detail
Professional English communication
Ability to work independently with minimal oversight
Willingness to complete a standardized editing test
A relevant portfolio or editing showreel
Strongly Preferred
Professional experience editing micro-dramas, serialized stories, or narrative content
Experience with DramaBox, ReelShort, ShortMax, or similar vertical-drama formats
Experience using AI-assisted video-editing workflows
Experience editing content for TikTok or other vertical platforms
Strong understanding of hooks, retention, emotional beats, and cliffhangers
Experience working with international creative teams
Proficiency with Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, or comparable editing software
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate understands that micro-drama editing is different from editing advertisements, podcasts, or standard social-media videos.
You know how to make a 60 to 120-second dramatic scene feel fast, emotional, understandable, and addictive. You can recognize weak pacing, remove unnecessary pauses, strengthen reactions, synchronize captions, and use music and sound effects to increase emotional impact.
You are comfortable working with AI-generated edits, but you have the human creative judgment required to bring the final video up to a premium standard.
Application Requirements
Applicants must provide:
A portfolio or showreel
Relevant vertical-video or micro-drama samples

Selection Process
