Summary

Delphos is an early-stage men’s skincare and grooming brand preparing for a mid-October product launch. We have 15 raw campus reaction/interview footage of people smelling and reacting to our product. They are edited, but not well and not in the fashion we want them to be. I’m looking for a short-form video editor to turn this footage into 8 polished, ad-ready TikTok/Instagram Reels videos that can be used for organic content and paid ads. This is not a generic editing project. The videos need to feel premium, natural, and social-native. The brand is warm, Mediterranean, clean, masculine but not aggressive, and built around sea buckthorn, scent, and the Alexander the Great story. I do NOT want overly flashy edits, cheap effects, dropshipping-style ads, meme editing, or generic templates. The strongest human reactions, product intrigue, and scent-based storytelling should be the focus. Project deliverables: * 8 total edited short-form videos * 10-20 seconds each * 9:16 vertical format * Captions included * Strong hook in the first 1-2 seconds * Clear product/story angle * Clean pacing * Premium but organic feel * One round of revisions * Final exports ready for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and Meta ads Brand direction: Delphos should feel like a premium skincare/fragrance brand adapted for TikTok. Think clean product shots, real reactions, tasteful captions, strong pacing, and no cheap ad-template feel. The oil, scent reactions, and people’s facial expressions should do most of the selling. Ideal experience: * Short-form video editing * TikTok/Reels editing * UGC-style product videos * Beauty, skincare, fragrance, grooming, wellness, fashion, or DTC brands * Organic content that can also work as paid ads * Strong sense of hooks, pacing, and retention Please apply with: 1. 3 examples of short-form product, beauty, skincare, fragrance, grooming, wellness, or lifestyle videos you’ve edited 2. Your fixed price for 8 edited videos 3. Your estimated turnaround time 4. A short note on how you would approach campus reaction footage for a premium brand IMPORTANT A lot of these videos end with a 56% off discount CTA that is not supposed to be in the ad. None of the ads should have the 56% off CTA. The ending should be our logo and a CTA to click a link, or something generic. I’m looking for someone with real product/UGC taste who can make these videos feel native, premium, and conversion-focused. We can hop on a short call before the project begins so I can describe the full vision.
