Short Form Content Editor Needed for New Instagram account

**Instagram Reels Editor Needed for Classic Car YouTube Channel** I'm looking for a long-term freelancer to help launch and grow a new Instagram account using content from my existing YouTube channel. The channel focuses on classic cars, automotive history, forgotten vehicles, and automotive nostalgia. Our audience is primarily men aged 45+, so I'm looking for someone who understands storytelling, nostalgia, and viewer retention rather than fast-paced TikTok-style editing. **What you'll do:** * Watch my existing YouTube videos * Identify the best stories, facts, hooks, and memorable moments * Create engaging Instagram Reels (9:16) * Add professional captions and on-screen text * Create compelling hooks for the first few seconds * Write Instagram captions/descriptions * Research and add relevant hashtags * Deliver fully upload-ready content **Important:** The source videos already contain narration. You should use the original audio and narration from the videos. No additional voice-over work is required. **The style I'm looking for:** * Nostalgic * Story-driven * Automotive-focused * Suitable for a 45+ audience * Clean and professional editing * Strong storytelling and viewer retention * No excessive memes, sound effects, or trend-based editing **Example Reel Hooks:** * "Your Dad probably wanted one of these in 1978..." * "This car quietly embarrassed Ford..." * "Nobody expected this tiny hatchback to become a legend..." * "Remember when £3,000 could buy this?" **Requirements:** * Experience creating Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or TikToks * Strong understanding of audience retention * Excellent English * Ability to independently identify the best moments from long-form videos * Automotive knowledge is a bonus, but not required **Project Details:** * Long-term collaboration * Approximately 30–60 Reels per month * Consistent weekly workload * Opportunity for ongoing work as the Instagram account grows **To Apply:** 1. Send 3 examples of Reels or Shorts you've created. 2. Tell me what software you use. 3. Explain how you decide which moments from a long video should become Reels. 4. Include the word **"Fuel"** in your proposal so I know you've read the entire job post. 5. Tell me your price per Reel and your price for a batch of 10 Reels. 6. Briefly describe what makes a Reel perform well for a 45+ audience interested in classic cars and automotive history. **Test Question (Important):** I will provide a link to one of my YouTube videos. Please tell me which 3 moments you would turn into Reels and explain why you chose them. I'm looking for someone who can help build an Instagram audience around classic cars and automotive nostalgia, not just someone who can cut videos. The ideal freelancer understands storytelling, audience retention, and what makes people stop scrolling.
