- A feel for pacing and for telling a story in short videos.
- A laptop of your own that is capable of editing, along with a stable internet connection.
- Ability to work on your own and hit deadlines while remote.
Basic After Effects and captioning in Telugu or Hindi are mentioned as extras. The internship lasts 6 months, and the post says it can lead to a full-time position. Shortlisted candidates take a brief hands-on editing test.
