Editor Needed for New Teen Comedy Drama Pilot Episode

I am looking for an out of house editor to edit a pilot episode for a new teen comedy drama series.

This brand new 20 minute pilot tells the story of awkward 15 year old Masie’s life. Masie’s life gets  turned upside down as over the summer holidays her parents decide to break up and her dad moves out leaving her and her boisterous 8 year brother, Tom at home with their mum, Laura. Now shes going into year 10 with her BFF’s Cassie and Gemma, and she has a whole new set of dramas to deal with. It’s their back to school disco at the end of the week and Maisie hasn’t got a date. It’s alright for Cas, who has boys falling at her feet begging to take her to the disco and Gemma with her long term boyfriend, but Masie just has to find one. Luckily she has her boy best friend Rob to walk home with and tell him all about her problems. She can’t see how much Rob would love to take her to the disco and spys new sixth form hottie, Jack. The 3 girls obsess over Jack at school and one day they go to Cass’s to plan their outfits, when Jack walks in with Cass’s older brother Joe! Meanwhile whilst his is all going on Mums stared to date again, and Maisie can’t work out why her hot new history teacher is being so nice to her…

I am looking for someone who has editing experience and has access to their own editing software. You need to be dedicated and committed to this project and be able to edit a 20/30 minute episode in 2/3 weeks with rough cuts being sent regularly.

We would like the programme to be quite animated and graphicy for example when Masie sees her crush cartoon hearts will flutter around the screen. If you think you have the skills to achieve this that would be a bonus but will not be a necessity as we can pass the film on to someone else once we have the final edit.

All filming should be done by the end of October and so you would need to be available around then to begin editing.

We want the show to be young, fun and modern and so if you have the skills to be able to achieve this then please comment below or email me at hennieclough@hotmail.co.uk.

This is going to be a really fun and light heart project to work on and it would be great to work with someone who is enthusiastic about editing.
