Summary

Video Editor for Nostalgic Documentary Channel We're looking for a dedicated video editor for a nostalgic documentary channel. if we work well together, this becomes ongoing work across multiple channels for the long term. [IMPORTANT] To apply, start your proposal with the word "computer" so I know you actually read this. Project Details : Making a video 2times a week ( if you can do various styles , I can let you edit more ) Rate: $20 per video Length: 20–25 minutes per video Provided: Full script + voiceover Fully AI-generated content is NOT wanted Your job: Source relevant footage (Pexels, Pixabay, or your own library) and edit it into a polished, story-driven documentary. This is NOT just stacking stock clips back-to-back. We expect real editing craft: Motion on stills — Ken Burns pan/zoom and 2.5D parallax so old photos feel alive, not static Archival treatment — film grain, scratches, vignette, film-strip/paper-texture frames to blend mixed footage into one consistent look Pacing — vary your cut speed with the story (fast montages for energy, slow holds for emotional beats) Motion graphics — animated number/stat callouts, clean text overlays, green-check bullet lists, simple charts, maps, and timelines Color grading — desaturated/sepia/B&W for the past, richer contrast for modern scenes Sound design — subtle whooshes, ambient SFX, and music that shifts with the story Transitions — mostly clean cuts, with film burns/light leaks only to signal time jumps If your idea of editing is just placing stock footage under the voiceover, please don't apply. Style Reference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fFJuKgRTMw4 You must be able to reproduce this editing style. Requirements NO REUSED CONTENT: You must understand YouTube's copyright policies. No stealing from other YouTubers. STORYTELLING: You know how to use visuals to keep the audience engaged. COMMUNICATION: Fast response during our working hours. TURNAROUND : meeting the deadline is very important !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Checklist !!!!!!!!!!!!!! Did you include samples and previous work? Do you have over 90% job success?
