Photo and Visual Editors

Location: Fully Remote, Worldwide

You’ll need: Professional experience selecting, editing or retouching images for publication, clients or brands

Your tasks: Review images, choose the best ones, correct technical problems and explain your decisions in writing

You’ll review and edit images and judge their quality, accuracy and fit for a purpose. This is a good fit if you work as a photo editor, picture editor, visual editor or retoucher and make decisions about which images to use and how to correct them.

Scope of Work

• Look at sets of images and pick the strongest one for a given purpose.
• Judge technical quality: exposure, focus, color, noise and cropping.
• Mark images that were altered in a way that changes what they show.
• Check that captions and descriptions match what the image actually shows.
• Write a short explanation for each decision so a reviewer can follow your reasoning.
• Correct or retouch images following a brief.

How the selection process works

• Apply with your resume and a short profile.
• Complete the editing interview. It is a short conversation about your experience with image selection and editing. You don’t need to prepare, look at anything or write anything. Finishing it is what moves your application forward.
• Review. We check your experience against what the project needs.
• Onboarding and first task. If selected, you get the guidelines and start with an initial task, which is reviewed before you continue.
