Videographer & Video Editor – Automotive Content

About the Role

We're looking for a passionate Videographer & Video Editor who can capture, craft, and create world-class automotive content for OTO Drive, the GCC's fastest-growing automotive media platform powered by SelfDrive Mobility. If cars excite you, cameras feel like extensions of your hands, and you love telling stories through visuals — this role is your pit lane entry into the automotive content world.

Responsibilities

Production & Filming
  • Capture cinematic footage of cars, events, and interviews — from static beauty shots to dynamic drive sequences.
  • Manage on-location shoots, lighting setups, and equipment handling (gimbals, drones, rigs, etc.).
  • Coordinate with anchors, producers, and OEM partners during test drives and launch events.
Editing & Post-Production
  • Edit long-form reviews and short-form content optimized for YouTube, TikTok, and Instagram.
  • Create dynamic transitions, overlays, and title graphics using Premiere Pro and After Effects.
  • Color-grade and mix sound to achieve a broadcast-quality finish across all OTO Drive platforms.
  • Repurpose content into reels, teasers, and highlight clips with platform-specific formatting.
Creative Direction & Workflow
  • Collaborate with the anchor/journalist and creative team to maintain OTO Drive's storytelling style and pacing.
  • Contribute fresh ideas for framing, motion, and storytelling that elevate every review, event, and show.
  • Ensure deliverables meet brand deadlines, sponsor requirements, and platform standards.

What We're Looking For:

  • Proven experience in videography and video editing (automotive or lifestyle portfolio preferred).
  • Strong technical skills in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, and DaVinci Resolve (or equivalent).
  • Working knowledge of professional camera gear, drones, lighting, and audio equipment.
  • A sharp creative eye for framing, lighting, and narrative flow.
  • Comfort working in fast-paced, outdoor, and on-location shoots.
  • Passion for cars, design, and storytelling — this role demands automotive curiosity as much as technical skill.

Nice to Have

  • Experience in 3D/VFX integration (Blender or Unreal Engine).
  • Basic understanding of YouTube SEO, thumbnail framing, and social storytelling.
  • Previous experience shooting for automotive media or branded content.
