Documentary-Style Video Editor for Faceless Finance YouTube Channel (10-12 Min Videos)

Job Description CRITICAL: Please read this entire post before applying. If you send a generic, copy-paste proposal, it will be instantly declined. The Project We are launching a high-quality, faceless YouTube channel focused on finance, economics, and business history. We are looking for a talented video editor who specializes in high-retention, documentary-style storytelling. Our videos will be 10 to 12 minutes long, and we will provide you with a completed, professional voiceover track and a highly detailed script. Your job is to bring the audio to life visually. Our Aesthetic Inspiration We are NOT looking for generic, boring AI slideshows or lazy stock footage clips of people smiling at laptops. We are looking for an dynamic, cinematic style similar to: MagnatesMedia James Jani Jake Tran Vox (for data visualizations/maps) What We Need From You: Impeccable Pacing: Visuals must change or shift every 2 to 4 seconds to maintain viewer retention. Kinetic Typography: Creative, on-screen text overlays for key numbers, quotes, and financial data. Advanced Motion Graphics: Clean transitions, animated financial charts/graphs, and map zooms when discussing global economic events. Intelligent Asset Selection: Finding relevant, engaging historical footage, news clips, and thematic stock assets (not just generic filler). Sound Design & Mix: Using crisp sound effects (whooshes, camera shutters, paper crumbles, market bells) and deep, cinematic background music to drive the mood. Requirements: Proven experience editing for the finance or business documentary niche on YouTube. Access to premium asset libraries (Envato Elements, Storyblocks, etc.). Strict adherence to deadlines. Budget & Trial This will start as a paid trial video ($[Insert your trial budget here, e.g., $75 - $150]). If the trial goes well, this is a long-term position with consistent weekly work (1 to 2 videos per week). Please bid your flat rate for a completed 10-12 minute video. HOW TO APPLY (The Filtering Test) To ensure you pay attention to detail, please structure your proposal exactly like this: Start the very first line of your proposal with the word: "MARKET" in all caps. Provide direct links to 2 or 3 faceless documentary-style videos you have edited (ideally in the finance, business, or history niches). Briefly tell us what video editing software you use (Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, etc.). If you do not include the keyword "MARKET" or do not provide relevant links, your application will be automatically archived.
