High and Low Retrospective is a YouTube channel focused on documentary-style video essays about TV, film, and pop culture (mostly 80s–2000s). The format is narration-driven storytelling, similar to Vox, Netflix documentaries, or ESPN 30 for 30.

I run a YouTube channel called High and Low Retrospective, focused on documentary-style video essays about TV, film, and pop culture (mostly 80s–2000s). I'm looking for an editor who understands narration-driven storytelling. The format uses TV or movie clips, music, and pacing to tell a story — closer to a Vox, Netflix doc, or ESPN 30 for 30.

• Job Location: Remote
• Employment Type: Freelance / Contract
• Workload: 1–4 videos per month
• Typical Video Length: 8–14 minutes

Specific responsibilities were not disclosed. For similar roles, tasks typically vary by employer and may be outlined during the application or interview process. Applicants should refer to the official source for accurate role expectations.

• Strong sense of pacing and storytelling.

• Fully scripted with voiceover provided.
• Happy to start with a paid test edit (30–60 seconds) to find the right fit.
