Video Editor

About the role

Bemellou is hiring its first-ever Video Editor through a competition called the Bemellou Creator Cup. Bemellou is the easiest first step into mental health: a plush you can hold, an app you'll actually open, and real psychologists on the other side. Built at Northwestern, launched this summer, with 2,000+ app downloads. The winning edit will receive $1,000 and the role: paid per video, tied to results, editing everything we publish.

Northwestern students: come film with us at The Garage on Thu, Oct 22, 12–6 pm.

Responsibilities

• Edit short-form vertical content for TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, the App Store, Google Play, and Pinterest
• Turn app recordings, plush footage and founder clips into scroll-stopping edits
• Write hooks and captions that land in the first two seconds
• Work directly with the founders on what we publish each week
• Grow the role with us as the creator team expands

Requirements

• A strong sense of hooks, pacing and story
• Comfort with CapCut, Premiere, or whatever you edit in
• Taste: warm, honest, never preachy, a brand that feels like a hug, not a lecture
• No follower count required; we care about the edit, not the audience
• A willingness to learn and get better

Pay

Paid per video, tied to results; winner of the Creator Cup receives $1,000 and the role.
