Short form content creation

I’m launching Revwize, a premium short-form media brand that explains the business and money behind major sports, brands, technology, entertainment and global events. I’m looking for a skilled short-form video editor and motion graphics designer who can transform completed voiceovers, research and brand guidelines into polished 60–95 second videos for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. This is not a basic captioning or podcast-clipping role. The content should feel like a fast, intelligent business documentary—with strong storytelling, animated statistics, clean typography, relevant footage, source labels and deliberate sound design. The first video explores how much money the World Cup generates. The selected freelancer will receive: - Final voiceover - Detailed time-coded production brief - Complete Revwize brand identity - Logo and channel assets - Editable motion-graphics templates - Caption, statistic, comparison and source-card designs - Research figures and source guidance - Short-form safe-zone overlays Responsibilities: - Edit voiceover-led videos in 9:16 format - Find relevant, properly licensed stock and archival footage - Create animated numbers, charts and comparisons - Add clean, retention-focused captions - Use source cards and forecast labels accurately - Build strong hooks during the opening three seconds - Create smooth pacing without excessive transitions - Add professional sound design and mix the music beneath the voiceover - Follow the supplied Revwize brand system consistently - Distinguish accurately between revenue, profit, investment, estimates and forecasts - Deliver organized, editable project files Deliverables for each completed video: - One 1080 × 1920 clean master - H.264 export suitable for TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts - Captions and motion graphics - Animated statistics and source labels - Music and sound design - Editable After Effects and Premiere Pro project files, or an agreed DaVinci Resolve workflow - All linked graphics, fonts and project assets - Up to two reasonable revision rounds The ideal freelancer has: - Strong Adobe After Effects skills - Professional Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve experience - A portfolio containing documentary, explainer or data-driven content - Experience animating charts, numbers and financial information - Excellent typography and layout judgment - Experience editing faceless, voiceover-driven videos - Good written English and attention to numerical accuracy - An understanding of TikTok, Reels and YouTube Shorts pacing - The ability to follow a detailed brand guide while still contributing creative ideas - Reliable communication and organized file management The visual direction is premium, clean, sharp and editorial. Think modern business journalism rather than generic finance content. Avoid spinning coins, raining money, neon trading graphics, emojis, unnecessary zooms and excessive sound effects. This project will begin with a paid 20–30 second test using part of the World Cup script. The test will evaluate: - Opening-hook strength - Motion-design quality - Data clarity - Caption readability - Brand consistency - Sound design - Attention to instructions - Overall storytelling ability For the right freelancer, this can become a long-term relationship with recurring videos. The initial goal is to establish a repeatable production system, then increase output as the channel grows. To apply, please include: 1. Three links to your most relevant short-form, documentary or motion-graphics projects. 2. A brief explanation of your role in each example. 3. The editing and animation software you use. 4. Your estimated turnaround time for one 60–95 second video. 5. Your quote for the paid 20–30 second test and for one complete video. 6. Whether you can provide organized editable project files. 7. Start your proposal with the sentence: “Revenue is not profit.” Please do not send an unrelated general portfolio. I am specifically looking for evidence of motion graphics, data visualization, voiceover storytelling and premium short-form editing. All communication, contracting and payment will remain through Upwork.
