About Us
We are a fast-growing real estate media agency based in Toronto, specializing in high-end, luxury property marketing. Our work focuses on producing visually refined listing videos and engaging brand content that reflect elevated taste, strong storytelling, and premium quality.
We aim to deliver content that feels cinematic, modern, and intentionally understated — never over-edited or gimmicky.
The Role
We are looking for a full-time Video, Film & Content Editor who combines strong technical skills with exceptional creative judgment.
This role is not about basic editing — it is about crafting a premium visual experience. You will be responsible for shaping the final look, pacing, and storytelling of our content to match a high-end luxury standard.
What “Good” Looks Like in This Role
We are specifically looking for an editor who can deliver the following style:
🎨 Colour & Visual Taste

- Slightly warm, inviting tones (luxury aesthetic)
- Avoids over-saturation, harsh contrast, or “HDR look”
- Maintains accurate whites and natural skin tones
🎬 Editing & Pacing
- Strong sense of rhythm — knows when to slow down and when to speed up
- Mix of cinematic slow shots and tighter, engaging cuts
- Smooth, subtle transitions (no overuse of effects or hype editing)
- Editing that feels calm, confident, and intentional
🎯 Storytelling & Structure
- Sequences footage with purpose (not random clips)
- Builds a natural flow
- Music-driven storytelling
- Highlights the emotional experience of the home, not just features
⚡ Hook & Engagement
- Strong opening 1–2 seconds that capture attention
- Uses movement, composition, or timing to create scroll-stopping moments
🧠 Taste & Restraint (Most Important)
- Knows what not to include
- Avoids over-editing
- Prioritizes composition, lighting, and mood over flashy techniques

2. Brand & Social Content
- Edit behind-the-scenes, POV, and team lifestyle footage and creator content
- Create engaging short-form content (Instagram Reels, TikTok, postcards, Instagram stories etc.)
- Maintain consistent brand identity across all content
3. Creative Contribution
- Recommend music, pacing, and storytelling direction
- Continuously refine editing style to align with luxury market expectations
