About the Role
NDot AI is building a mini-drama (short drama) business. We're hiring two Short Drama Creative Editor Interns, one in the SF Bay Area and one in Beijing, to cut and QC the trailers and paid ad creatives that bring viewers to our dramas.
- Type: Internship, 3-6 months, 24+ hours/week
- Location: SF Bay Area (Mountain View) or Beijing
- Reports to: Design Lead. Creative requests and scheduling come from the Performance Marketing Lead.
What You'll Do
- Cut trailers and ad creatives. Edit short dramas into 15-60 second trailers and paid ads in 9:16, with a strong hook in the first 3 seconds. These run on Meta, TikTok and Google ads and in in-app recommendations. You'll mainly work on titles where the partner sent no creatives or the creatives didn't meet our standards.
- QC partner creatives. This is your top daily priority. Partners are required to send ad creatives for their titles. You'll check each one for specs, subtitles, hook strength and ad-policy compliance on each platform, and make light edits when something doesn't pass.
- Produce creative variants every week. Follow the performance marketing team's test plan to make variants in batches, testing different hooks, end-card CTAs and subtitle styles. Then improve them based on CTR and CPI results.
- Run our short-drama channels on TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Instagram. Cut highlight clips and recap/commentary videos, and keep a steady posting schedule.
- Use AI tools to work faster. Use AI for auto-subtitling, dubbing, translation and smart editing, and build reusable creative templates.
What We're Looking For
- Current student or recent graduate in film, media, design or a related field, with a short-form video editing portfolio. Please include a link to your work.
- Skilled in at least one of Premiere Pro, CapCut (or Jianying), or DaVinci Resolve. After Effects or motion graphics skills are a plus.
- You watch a lot of short dramas or vertical short-form video. You get hooks and beat-synced cuts, and you can explain why a specific ad makes people stop scrolling.
- You're curious about data. You're happy to look at CTR and CPI and change a creative based on what you see, not just make it look good.
- You can read and write English well enough to handle subtitles. Knowing ad policies on overseas social platforms is a plus.
- Experience with AI tools for editing, subtitles or dubbing is a plus.
