    Description

    Video Creator/Editor: The Disability Rights Movement Needs You!!

    Help create a short, powerful video inspiring people with disabilities to vote — using public domain footage, captions & voiceover!

    Description:

    Moceans Center for Independent Living, a 501c3 non-for-profit organization is creating a short, powerful video showing how generations of activists — from suffragettes to civil rights and disability rights leaders — fought for the right to vote.

    We’re seeking a creative, sensitive video editor/creator to compile free public domain and royalty-free footage into a 1–3 minute video with closed captions and a voiceover reminding viewers that voting is both a privilege and a right.

    If you’re passionate about inclusion, history, or civic engagement — and want to use your video skills for good — we’d love to collaborate!

    Responsibilities:

    • Edit a 1–3 minute awareness video using free or public domain footage.
    • Add captions and short voiceover (script can be provided).
    • Collaborate virtually with our small team, taking direction but working independently.
    • Be open to feedback, edits, and a collaborative review process.

    Requirements / Skills:

    • Video editing experience (DaVinci Resolve, Premiere, Final Cut, etc.)
    • Clear, responsive communication
    • Respectful and nonpartisan approach
    • Sensitivity to diverse histories and disability rights issues
    • Bonus: experience with captioning or accessibility standards

    When & Where:

    • 100% Remote
    • Flexible schedule (short-term project, but we'd love to build an ongoing relationship)
    • Virtual/email interview before start

    Benefits:

    • Create meaningful media that empowers people with disabilities to vote
    • Gain visibility and credit in a nationwide campaign
    • Strengthen your creative portfolio
    • Join a caring, inclusive team making real impact

    Good For:

    • People who love storytelling for social impact
    • Film students or editors seeking portfolio work
    • Accessibility advocates and history enthusiasts
