Video Creator at Descript, Inc.


Video Creator

San Francisco, CA | Montreal, Quebec | Remote

Descript is looking for a full-time video creator who’s already making tutorial content, likes making it, and wants to get paid to make it. You’ll be making video to help podcasters, video creators, business folks, and others create all sorts of content with Descript. You’ll learn and master the app, and you’ll keep our video evolving based on user feedback and product changes. You’ll develop, write, record, edit, and post videos every week.

Requirements

  • You make video tutorials
    • they consist of screen recordings + voiceover or picture-in-picture narration + on-screen annotations
    • they are easy to follow, and just good
  • You use or have used Descript — and you’d like to spend your days making videos that show others how to make cool stuff using it
  • You are not dead

Responsibilities

  • Produce video for Descript’s Help Center, YouTube channel, and social platforms
  • Build a video library that answers all the common questions Descript users have, teaches them how to make all the content they most want to make, and keeps them engaged, even entertained
  • Work closely with content marketing, customer support, and product/engineering to make sure Descript’s help & learning video content is the best out there
  • Master editing and production in Descript

How to apply

Submit a tutorial video — either one you made and published already, or one you made just for this application. Here’s what we’ll be looking for:

  • How clearly you communicate — your writing, reading, talking, and other communication stuff
  • How well you use video to show viewers how to do the thing you’re talking about
  • How you move between demonstrating actions through screen recordings and speaking on camera. You can incorporate b-roll, images, or whatever — but that’s all optional
  • Your editing skills

You can submit a link to your video submission in the application. Hope you’ll apply!
