Fast Video Editor - Split-Screen Educational Reels (Talking Head + B-Roll + AI Visuals) LongTerm

Posted 2 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

We're a growing wellness brand helping new mothers heal their babies' gut issues (eczema, colic, reflux, sleep) through food. We publish short educational videos on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts, and we want them to look like a real production company made them — not "girl filming on her phone." Our format is the Drew Canole / FitLife split-screen style: a presenter talks to camera on one part of the frame while the other half (and the cutaways) carry b-roll, AI-generated visuals, kinetic captions, and clean motion graphics. The talking is simple — the editing is what makes it feel premium. This is an ongoing, part-time role for one editor who owns this format and turns videos around fast, every week. We want a long-term relationship, not one-off projects. What you'll be editing: - Split-screen / picture-in-picture educational reels (15–90 sec) - Punchy captions / kinetic subtitles that hold attention - B-roll cutaways — from stock, from our own footage library, OR generated with AI when nothing fits - Clean motion graphics and text callouts (a stat, a "Stage 1 / Stage 2," a before/after) - Tight hooks in the first 1–2 seconds, strong retention pacing - Exports resized for Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts The look: sleek, warm, premium, trustworthy — high production value, not gimmicky. We provide a brand kit (fonts, colors, caption style, logo) so everything stays consistent. What WE provide: - Envato Elements account (stock video, music, SFX, templates) - A brand kit (fonts, colors, caption presets, logo) - Access to our own organized content library — hundreds of clips and b-roll you can pull from - Reference examples of the exact style we want AI generation — important: When stock and our own footage don't give you the perfect shot, we want you to generate it with AI so the video still looks seamless and high-end. You should be comfortable using tools like Runway, Kling, Sora, Pika, or Midjourney to create short b-roll, backgrounds, or visual elements that match the scene. Must-haves: - Proven experience with split-screen / talking-head educational content (send examples — this is the #1 thing we look at) - Genuinely fast turnaround — this is high-volume, ongoing work - Strong caption/subtitle and motion-graphics skills (CapCut, Premiere, After Effects, or DaVinci — your call, as long as it's clean) - Comfortable generating b-roll with AI when needed - Reliable, communicative, hits deadlines without being chased Nice-to-haves: experience in health / wellness / parenting / motherhood content, and an instinct for what makes a hook retain. Rate: $3–$5/hour, part-time, ongoing weekly work for the right person. To apply — please read: 1. Start your message with the word GUTSY so we know you read this. 2. Send 2–3 examples of split-screen or talking-head educational reels you've edited (links). 3. Tell us which AI video/image tools you use, and drop one AI example if you have it. 4. Tell us your realistic turnaround for one finished 30–60 sec reel, and how many you can do per week. 5. One line on your editing software of choice. We read every application that follows these steps. The ones that don't, we skip.
