• Prepare rough cuts, incorporate feedback, and deliver final masters with proper encoding and captions/subtitles. 
• Manage digital assets: ingest footage, apply consistent naming conventions, maintain version control, and backup media. 
• Contribute creative concepts and storyboarding for campaigns and social‑first series. 
• Support simple motion graphics/animation tasks (lower thirds, title cards, basic transitions) as needed. 
• Perform other duties to support the Brand & Communications team.
