UGC Video Editor — Captions, Hooks & Take Selection (CapCut) — Ongoing Work

Posted 2 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I'm a UGC content creator producing short-form videos (TikTok/Reels) for tech and lifestyle brands. I'm looking for an editor to take over my video editing so I can focus on filming and client work. Each video will include: • Multiple raw takes — you select the strongest delivery and cut the rest • A reference video to match for pacing, structure, and caption style • A script that must be followed exactly • A standing end card / app demo clip that gets inserted into every video (provided once, reused across videos) • Photo/video overlays inserted at specified points • Bold, animated captions on 100% of spoken content • A text hook on screen in the first 1–2 seconds This is ongoing, repeat work — once you're trained on my format, most videos follow the same pattern and turnaround should be quick. VOLUME & GROWTH: 🔵 Starting volume: 4 videos/day while we train on the workflow 🔵 As you get up to speed, volume scales up toward 10+ active brand clients 🔵 Target volume at full scale: up to 20 videos/day 🔵 Pay increases as more tech UGC campaigns are added to the workload 🔵 View bonuses paid out when a video goes viral ✨Editors who perform well during the training phase get priority as volume grows — this is meant to become a steady, growing role, not a one-off gig.✨ REQUIREMENTS: • Proficient in CapCut or Premiere Pro • Experience editing UGC / TikTok-style short-form content specifically (not just general video editing) • Strong caption styling — plain white text with black border style subtitles • Can identify and structure a hook, not just caption whatever is said first • Reliable turnaround and communication as well as quickly delivering edits that need to be made TO APPLY: ⭐️Share 2 portfolio links showing caption styling and hook structure specifically ⭐️If your samples look like a fit, you’ll be invited to create 2 sample videos using my actual footage/script to see how you handle the full process ⭐️Confirm your typical turnaround time per video RATE: ✅$4 per finished video to start, paid per batch. ✅Rate increases as more campaigns are added and volume grows. ✅ View bonuses paid on videos that go viral.
