Dear Digistorytellers,



this job posting comes from the Final Cut Pro -L list on Yahoogroups,  
so I'm cross posting it here.  If you fulfill the requirements (and  
are in Chicago), then please mail your reel as instructed below and  
do not call them.





Edit Creations, a small but growing boutique post house in Burr Ridge  
(a 25 minute drive
from downtown Chicago off of I-55) is looking for a full time FCP  
editor. All applicants
should have at least 5 years of work experience and should be highly  
skilled at FCP and
the supporting suite of apps, including LiveType, Motion, Compressor  
and DVDSP. Being
Apple certified on FCP is a big plus but not required. You must also  
have experience with
Photoshop and AfterEffects. Editors with a strong background in  
graphic design and
compositing will be considered first.

In addition to knowing the right tools, you should have broad  
experience cutting a variety
of different projects. You should also be familiar with different  
styles of editing. Our
projects are generally long form and include broadcast, corporate,  
promotional,
documentaries, and sales videos. We are not a spot house, but we do  
the occasional spot
or PSA.

Excellent interpersonal skills are a must. You should be able to work  
with a variety of
different clients, know how to handle difficult and stressful  
situations without losing your
cool, and work well with others in the office. Great personality,  
sense of humor and an
easy-going nature are all plusses. Having a sense of pride in every  
job that you do is a
must.

We're looking for editors that are also collaborative, who can work  
with a producer to help
determine the look, feel, pace, style etc. on any given project. We  
want creative, solution
based, innovative editors, not just button pushers.

What can we offer you? Competitive pay, an exceptional working  
environment, up-to-date
edit suites with the latest equipment and software, the opportunity  
to work on some great
projects with many Fortune 500 clients, and an appreciation for the  
work that you do.

Interviews will start in mid to late September, and this position  
will be filled as soon as the
right applicant is found.

If you think you'd be a good fit for Edit Creations, please mail a  
reel and resume. Any
resumes that do not include a reel will not be considered. DVD is the  
preferred format for
all reels.

If you prefer, you can email your resume with a link to your on-line  
demo reel instead.

Only LOCAL Chicago area applicants will be considered for this position.

No phone calls, please.
