• Collaborate with the marketing and creative teams to ensure all content aligns with Magnolia Pearl's visual identity and marketing objectives.
• Deliver polished, platform-ready content within established timelines.

• Strong portfolio demonstrating creative video editing, visual storytelling, and an understanding of social media content.
• Experience with video editing software such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, CapCut, or similar programs.
• Strong understanding of transitions, overlays, filters, typography, pacing, music selection, and visual effects.
• A strong creative eye for fashion, styling, composition, and aesthetic storytelling.
• Familiarity with current fashion, lifestyle, and social media trends.
• Ability to translate existing footage into fresh, engaging content through creative editing.
• Excellent attention to detail and ability to manage multiple projects and deadlines.

Preferred Experience -

• Portfolio with videos
• Experience creating artistic, editorial-style Reels and fashion campaign videos.
• Understanding of visual storytelling through styling, movement, music, textures, and creative editing techniques.
• Familiarity with the aesthetics and social media strategies of established fashion brands.
