Video Editor/Content Creator

Summary

I need 3 YouTube videos (8-10 minutes each) edited end-to-end. This is a budget-conscious project, so I'm looking for editors who prioritize fast turnaround and functional quality over boutique polish. Footage is pre-organized and ready to cut. Scope of Work Full-stack editing includes: Cuts and transitions (clean, functional pacing) Color grading (color correction/basic grading to match shots and establish mood) Audio cleanup (noise reduction, level balancing, sync check) Text overlays and graphics (titles, lower thirds, callouts as needed) Export to YouTube specifications (1080p/4K, proper codec, proper aspect ratio) What This Means at This Budget At $50 total for 3 videos, I'm transparent: this attracts fast, high-volume editors optimizing for speed. Expect: Functional, not polished color grading (not photoshop-level color science) Clean audio, not pristine studio-grade mixing On-brand text/graphics, not custom motion design Standard transitions, not signature effects Reliable turnaround over hand-crafted detailing This works if your content is strong and you're not selling luxury/high-end positioning. Deliverables 3 edited videos, YouTube-ready (H.264, 1080p minimum) One round of revisions included Delivery within 5-7 days Requirements Portfolio showing previous YouTube editing (8+ min videos) Can start immediately Fast communication and clear delivery dates Comfortable with organized but raw footage Who This Is For Editors building portfolio volume, creators in high-velocity regions, or anyone who values speed and functional quality over luxury finishing. Not for perfectionism or endless iteration. If you're looking for high-end color grading or custom motion graphics, this isn't the project. If you can deliver solid, clean, on-time work at speed, let's go. Budget: $50 total for all 3 videos.
