ABOUT PARALLAX

Parallax is building something that doesn't exist yet: a modern communications engine that treats

persuasion like infrastructure. We are a high-velocity content operation backed by committed investors,

leading advocacy organizations, and a passionate team that has run some of the largest political media

operations in history. We produce content at campaign scale — hundreds of videos, millions of

impressions, rapid-response storytelling across every platform. We do this in service of fixing American

democracy through the actionable lever of election reform.

We are focused on solving the Primary Problem. Closed party primaries disenfranchise millions of voters

and disincentivize our leaders from solving problems. Open, all-candidate primaries increase

participation, improve representation, and dampen polarization. We are here to win open primaries on

the state level in order to enfranchise millions of voters and liberate dozens of members of Congress.

ROLE DESCRIPTION

This is an outcomes-based contractor engagement. Success is measured by what gets shipped, not hours

logged:

• Volume of finished cuts. 5–10+ polished, publish-ready cuts per week across short-form (TikTok, Reels, Shorts), produced from raw footage and creative briefs.
• Turnaround speed. Rough assemblies delivered within hours of receiving footage; polished short-form cuts within 24 hours.
• Platform-correct outputs. Every deliverable shipped to spec for its destination platform — correct aspect ratio, hook structure, pacing, captions, text overlays, and sound design.
• AI-accelerated pipeline. Editing output that demonstrably leverages AI tools (auto-transcription, rough-cut generation, smart reframing, caption automation) to compress turnaround relative to traditional workflows.
• Performance-responsive iteration. Recuts and format adjustments delivered in response to analytics shared by the project lead, with clear evidence of learning applied to subsequent cuts.
• Organized handoffs. Clean project files, labeled exports, and archived source media delivered alongside every cut so the team can locate, repurpose, and audit any asset.
