About Editors
Assignment Desk provides professional Video Editors who transform raw footage into polished, broadcast-ready deliverables. Our editors handle everything from rough assembly cuts to final color grading, audio mixing, graphics integration, and format delivery. They can work on-site for same-day edits and live-to-tape shows, or remotely for post-production turnaround on any timeline. Our Video Editors are proficient in industry-standard software including Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Avid Media Composer, and After Effects. They bring their own high-performance editing systems for on-site work, complete with fast storage, color-calibrated monitors, and all necessary software licenses. For remote post-production, they work within your preferred NLE and storage ecosystem. Whether you need a same-day highlight reel cut on location, a multi-week documentary edit, or ongoing content production support, Assignment Desk editors deliver professional results under deadline pressure. Video Editors are booked as independent contractors (1099) through our Vendor ICA, available in all 24 markets with full administrative support and invoicing handled by Assignment Desk.
