Mini Documentary Video Editor

Title: Documentary Video Editor Needed for Two Short Mini-Docs (5–10 Minutes Each) I’m looking for a talented documentary-style video editor to help craft two short mini documentaries, each approximately 5–10 minutes long. I already have: * Raw video footage * Interviews / soundbites * Supporting clips / b-roll I need help with: * Structuring and assembling the story * Selecting the best clips and pacing * Music selection that emotionally fits the piece * Sound design and audio polish * Creating a cinematic, engaging flow * Light color correction/grading if needed The goal is for these to feel emotionally compelling, polished, and professional — not like basic YouTube edits. Style references / inspiration: * Vox documentaries * Patagonia / branded documentary storytelling * Mini-docs with strong pacing and immersive sound design What I’m looking for: * Someone with strong storytelling instincts * Experience editing documentaries, mini-docs, or cinematic YouTube content * Good taste in music and emotional pacing * Strong communication and ability to collaborate Please send: * Relevant portfolio samples (especially documentary or story-driven edits) * Your approximate rate or fixed-price estimate * Estimated turnaround time * A brief note on your editing approach Potential for ongoing work if it’s a strong fit.
