Looking for GTA 5 gaming story entertainment editor
Worldwide
GTA YouTube Editor Wanted — Long-Term I'm looking for a long-term editor for a faceless GTA YouTube channel. Current content will focus on highly entertaining GTA 5 videos built around crazy challenges, experiments, discoveries, unusual scenarios and story-driven concepts, with the channel eventually transitioning heavily into GTA 6 entertainment / informative content. Videos will generally be 10–20 minutes, with occasional YouTube Shorts/TikToks created from the long-form content or separate gameplay. I'll provide all raw gameplay footage, a rough story edit with the hook and narrative structure, and AI-generated narration through ElevenLabs. The rough cut is a story blueprint, not a finished edit — you'll have the freedom to find better footage, restructure sections, tighten pacing and turn it into the strongest possible final video. I'm looking for someone who understands YouTube storytelling, retention and comedic timing, rather than simply making gaming montages. Strong pacing, purposeful cuts, sound design, music, zooms, text, visual effects and memes/reactions where appropriate are important, but I don't want unnecessary over-editing. Knowing when not to cut is just as important. Inspiration: MrBeast for high-retention storytelling, hooks and escalation, and GTA creators such as TheLoudDude, Nought, SimplyChris and Vista Gamer for GTA entertainment, concepts and presentation. DaVinci Resolve experience is strongly preferred. as I'll be using Resolve for rough cuts, markers and project handoff. Experience with Premiere Pro is fine, but you should be comfortable working in Resolve. I'm looking for someone interested in a long-term relationship with consistent work as the channel grows, not a one-off project. Please dm me and we’ll get in contact. Please send: 3–5 examples of your strongest long-form gaming edits. What parts of those videos you personally edited Your rate per video or finished minute Typical turnaround time for a 10–20 minute video Your editing software Your availability Whether you're comfortable with DaVinci Resolve / Blackmagic Cloud Whether you're willing to do a short paid test edit using my actual GTA footage GTA editing experience is a huge plus, but strong YouTube / Gaming storytelling is more important. I'm specifically looking for someone who can help develop the channel's editing style, handle occasional Shorts/TikToks, and grow with the channel long-term.
