YouTube Documentary Video Editor We are looking for a talented YouTube video editor for a faceless Christian history and Bible-focused channel producing 15–25 minute documentary-style videos. We provide the final script and voiceover. You turn them into a polished, visually compelling story. What We’re Looking For Our videos should feel like modern, premium YouTube documentaries—cinematic, intelligent, curiosity-driven, and highly visual. Visuals must directly support the narration. If the story mentions a specific location, person, manuscript, artifact, building, or historical event, the viewer should see something relevant to it. When the story moves geographically, use maps and movement to help the viewer follow the journey. We do not want generic B-roll or a small collection of AI images recycled throughout the video.

To Apply Please provide: * 2–3 examples of your best long-form work * Your price for a 15–25 minute finished video * Typical turnaround time * Editing software you use * Any experience with documentary, historical, educational, or faceless content Please do not apply without relevant work samples.
