Summary

We are looking for a skilled short-form video editor with a strong eye for Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) marketing to transform AI-generated assets into high-converting, vertical ad Reels. The final output must be optimized (9:16 format) for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and Meta Ads. We will supply the AI-generated visuals (from tools like Runway, Sora, Pika, or Midjourney) along with voiceovers and product assets. Your goal is to structure these materials into a high-energy, scroll-stopping ad designed to drive DTC sales and engagements. Key Responsibilities: * Assemble AI clips into a seamless, high-converting DTC video ad. * Craft a powerful visual and auditory hook in the first 3 seconds to maximize retention. * Add trendy background music, sound design (SFX), and smooth transitions to match pacing. * Design dynamic, eye-catching kinetic captions/subtitles (CapCut or Premiere style). * Ensure visual branding aligns with modern DTC aesthetic standards. * Deliver in crisp 9:16 vertical resolution ready for ad campaign deployment. * Handle minor revisions efficiently to reach the final approved cut. Requirements: * Proven track record editing vertical ads (Meta/TikTok) specifically for DTC or E-commerce brands. * Mastery of CapCut Pro, Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, or DaVinci Resolve. * Strong understanding of ad psychology, visual hooks, and consumer drop-off points. * Experience integrating AI-generated imagery/video seamlessly into video projects. * Fast turnarounds and solid communication skills. To Apply, Please Submit: * 2–3 links to high-performing DTC Reels or short-form ad samples you’ve edited. * Your turnaround time for a 15–30 second video ad. * Confirmation that you accept the $50 fixed budget for this project. Project Type: One-time (Potential for ongoing work for the right editor)
