We make Smart*ish* Money, a YouTube show that takes real economic ideas — the boring grown-up stuff — and turns them into something a little weird, funny and easy to understand. Always backed by real numbers and a kid's sense of wonder and curiosity.
The role
Edit our videos (about 8–9 minutes each) on a regular basis. You won't start from scratch — for every video you'll get a finished script, a voiceover, and a detailed briefing from me. Your job is to bring it to life: source stock images or GIFs, cut it together, get the comic timing right, and add simple visuals (AI tools are welcome for basic illustrations — no professional art skills needed).
What we're looking for
- Living in Berlin — really helpful, since we'll meet up from time to time, but not a deal-breaker
- Some video editing ability — instinct matters more than years of experience
- A basic understanding of economics and finance — this matters most. No degree needed, but you should find money and the economy interesting
- A good sense of humor, especially the dry, deadpan kind that works well on YouTube
- Comfortable using editing software and AI tools
- Reliable and easy to talk to
What we offer
If things feel good after a 30-second trial edit, we'd like to build a long-term working relationship. You get an ongoing role with regular, dependable income, flexible hours around your studies, and a genuinely fun job where you'll learn a ton and help others learn too.
To apply, send:
- A link to anything you've edited
- Your availability and your rate
- And the fun part: pitch us a weird economic story you'd love to make. Something like "How much would it actually cost to build Jurassic Park?" — a strange question with real numbers behind it. One or two lines is plenty.
If money-made-funny sounds like your thing, we'd love to hear from you.
Gehalt: ab 14,00€ pro Stunde
Bewerbungsfrage(n):
- Are you able to edit with Adobe Premiere Pro/ Capcut or similar editing software?
- Please give me a link to a video that you've edited that is closest to the desired style
- Are you able to source stock photos /giffs or create basic illustrations using AI to tell the story?
- Tell us why you think you'd be a good fit for the role and pitch us a weird economic story you'd love to make. Something like "How much would it actually cost to build Jurassic Park?" — a strange question with real numbers behind it.
