Description
Stampede Studios is hiring a Freelance Online Finishing Editor/Colorist (DaVinci Resolve) for on-site work at their post facility in Hollywood, CA. This role sits inside a dedicated post-production finishing department, where the work centers on conforming hi-resolution picture to offline reference edits for trailers, TV spots, and entertainment marketing assets. It suits an experienced finishing editor who is equally comfortable behind a color panel as they are building a conform from scratch. About the Role Stampede Studios runs a full-service finishing operation handling everything from feature film trailers to broadcast TV spots, and this freelance position feeds directly into that pipeline. You will be called in on a project basis, with engagements ranging from a single day to multiple weeks depending on the workload. Expect a deadline-driven environment where client turnarounds are tight and technical precision is non-negotiable. Key Responsibilities • Conform hi-resolution final picture to offline reference edits for trailers, TV spots, and related entertainment marketing content. • Perform color grading on final deliverables across mixed HDR, UHD, 2K, and HD resolutions using DaVinci Resolve. • Execute minor paint and VFX work as needed within the post-production workflow to clean up or finish shots. • Master and output deliverables across multiple aspect ratios, social re-sizes, resolutions, and frame rates to meet platform specifications. • Work directly within a client-facing post facility, maintaining quality and accuracy under deadline pressure. • Operate within a calendar hold system, making yourself available for booking confirmation on short notice when projects come in. What You Bring • Proven experience as an Online Finishing Editor/Colorist with credits in trailers, TV spots, or entertainment marketing post-production. • Deep working knowledge of DaVinci Resolve, including its color grading and conform tools, is required. • Hands-on experience delivering across HDR, UHD, 2K, and HD formats with a clear understanding of resolution and frame rate workflows. • Ability to perform basic paint and VFX work inside a finishing environment without routing shots to a separate department. • Comfort working on-site in a Hollywood post facility, available for freelance bookings on a project-by-project basis. Why This Role Stampede Studios works across a broad range of entertainment marketing content, giving finishing editors consistent exposure to high-profile trailer and campaign work. The freelance structure is straightforward, with calendar holds used before official bookings so you have reasonable lead time to plan. For colorists and online editors looking to build a steady relationship with a reputable Hollywood finishing house, this is a practical way in.
