Cinematic Video Editor Needed for Luxury Brand Documentary-Style Reel

Posted 3 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

We are looking for a highly skilled video editor to create a cinematic, documentary-style brand Reel This is not a typical fast-cut Instagram Reel. We want the video to feel more like a short luxury documentary, editorial feature, or cinematic news piece - polished, sophisticated, story-driven, and visually strong. The final video will be approximately 25–40 seconds Visual Direction: The video should feel: * Cinematic * Documentary-inspired * Editorial * Luxurious * Sophisticated * Modern * Premium * Similar in feel to a high-end news feature, fashion documentary, or luxury brand film We want strong storytelling and pacing rather than simply arranging attractive clips. We are looking for something that feels cinematic, premium and editorial - not sentimental, overly dramatic, trendy or like generic corporate background music. Subtle documentary or news-style sound design would be a major plus. Ideal Freelancer: We are particularly interested in editors with experience in: * Luxury brand films * Documentary-style social content * Fashion or editorial video * Cinematic brand storytelling * Watches, jewellery or luxury goods * Hospitality * Commercial trailers * Short-form documentaries When applying, please send 2–4 examples specifically relevant to this style. Please do not send a large general portfolio containing unrelated work. We would especially like to see examples where you turned a mixture of video, photography, archival material, text and music into one strong story. Potential Ongoing Work: This may be the first of several videos, so there is potential for ongoing work if the visual direction and working relationship are a good fit.
