Summary

I run a fast-growing NYC History Instagram channel (75k+ followers) and need a creative partner to help me scale production. The Workflow: I give you the topic/concept. You use ChatGPT/Gemini to turn it into a punchy, 60-second script. I send you raw talking-head footage. You source the historical photos and edit the video in CapCut. Key Editing Style: You must be able to use CapCut’s background removal tool to overlay my "floating head" seamlessly over the historical images you source, adding captions and great pacing. Requirements: Strong CapCut skills (overlays, background cuts, text). Experienced using AI tools for fast scriptwriting. Great eye for short-form retention hook strategies. To Apply: Send a brief video intro to me about yourself and samples of short-form videos you’ve edited
