Feature film Editor Intern

FEATURE FILM EDITING INTERN — ROMANTIC COMEDY

Akwire Media Group is seeking a motivated Feature Film Editing Intern to join our post-production team as we bring an independent romantic comedy across the finish line for its December 2026 release.

The full feature has already been assembled, so this is not a start-from-scratch edit. We are entering the final stage toward picture lock and need an editor who can help clean up and refine select scenes, tighten edits where necessary, address small continuity or pacing details, and help prepare the film for its final post-production stages.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Must be proficient in Final Cut Pro (FCPX)
  • Strong understanding of narrative/story editing
  • Good sense of pacing, comedy, emotion, and performance
  • Comfortable working within an existing feature-film timeline
  • Organized with media, timelines, and project files
  • Able to take creative direction and execute detailed notes
  • Reliable and interested in learning the feature-film post-production process

A PLUS

  • Experience creating graphics, titles, and motion elements
  • Previous narrative film, short film, music video, or commercial editing experience
  • Knowledge of basic color, sound cleanup, or finishing workflows
  • Experience preparing projects for picture lock and final delivery

This is a great opportunity for an emerging editor who wants feature-film experience and a completed feature credit while working directly with filmmakers during the final stages of a theatrical/independent film release.

Project: Independent Romantic Comedy Feature
Production Company: Akwire Media Group
Release: December 2026
Stage: Final Edit / Picture Lock
Software: Final Cut Pro (FCPX)

To apply, please send your resume, editing reel or samples of narrative work, your availability, and a short introduction about yourself and why you’re interested in joining the film.

We’re looking for someone who wants to help finish a real feature—not just observe the process.
