Video Editor + Content Repurposing Specialist
Worldwide
I’m looking for a skilled video editor and content repurposing specialist to help me turn my existing long-form video content into polished, strategic content for YouTube and short-form platforms. I am NOT simply looking for someone who can cut videos. I need an editor who understands storytelling, retention, content strategy, and how to identify the strongest moments inside long-form footage. I am a business coach and educator with a growing library of trainings, client interviews, testimonials, live videos, and educational content. One of the primary content formats you'll be working with is approximately 30-minute client success interviews. I interview clients who have achieved exceptional results after working with me. These conversations allow my audience to hear their stories, understand their transformation, and see the coaching relationship behind those results. From ONE interview, I want you to create: A polished long-form YouTube episode Multiple standalone short-form videos Strong clips centered around client results Powerful storytelling moments Educational/teaching moments Belief-shifting moments Clips suitable for Instagram Reels, TikTok and YouTube Shorts The short-form videos should NOT feel like random pieces cut from a longer conversation. Each clip should be able to stand on its own and make sense to someone who has never watched the full interview. I need an editor who can listen to a 30-minute conversation and recognize: “That 60–90 seconds right there is the clip.” A second major project: Evergreen Training I also have a 2 day live training program called my Live Sales Accelerator. I want to transform this live training into a polished evergreen video experience. This means taking footage originally recorded live and helping me: Remove unnecessary live interaction, pauses and repetition Tighten the teaching Organize the strongest training segments Improve pacing and viewer retention Create clear transitions between concepts Make the final product feel intentionally created as an evergreen training rather than simply watching a replay of a live session I will provide strategic direction on the teaching and messaging. I need an editor who can bring the content to life visually and recognize what should stay, what should be tightened, and what needs additional visual support. Editing Style I want clean, professional, modern editing. The content, teaching and stories should remain the star. You should understand how to use things like on-screen text, captions, punch-ins/zooms, B-roll, screenshots, graphics, music and pattern interrupts strategically, not simply because you know how to add them. Most importantly, you need a strong editorial eye. Who I'm Looking For You may be a great fit if you: Have experience editing talking-head, interview, coaching, education or personal-brand content Understand both long-form YouTube and short-form vertical video Know how to find compelling clips without being given timestamps for every edit Understand hooks and viewer retention Can recognize emotionally compelling client-result moments Understand storytelling Can turn one piece of content into multiple useful assets Can work independently once you understand my brand and editing style Are comfortable receiving feedback and refining the style with me Bonus: Experience editing digital courses, webinars, masterminds, coaching programs or evergreen trainings. PAID TRIAL PROJECT The first project will be taking 15 minutes of an existing client coaching/training session from my Live Sales Accelerator and transforming it into a polished evergreen training video. This is not simply a “clean up the Zoom recording” project. I need you to identify and preserve the strongest teaching, coaching, examples, breakthroughs and client transformation while removing unnecessary live-session elements, repetition, dead space and anything that doesn't serve the evergreen viewer. The finished video should feel like an intentional educational asset—not a replay someone happened to record. If we work well together, there is significant ongoing work available, including additional evergreen training edits, long-form client success interviews, YouTube videos and short-form content repurposing. HOW TO APPLY Please submit 2–3 examples of your BEST work that demonstrate your ability to edit engaging, professional video content. I’m especially interested in seeing: Long-form YouTube, interview, coaching, or educational content Short-form content repurposed from longer videos Evergreen training/course content, if you have experience with it Please only send your strongest, most relevant examples. Do not send your entire portfolio. Selected applicants will be invited to a 30 minute interview. During the interview, I’ll share specific examples of the editing style, structure, pacing, and quality I’m looking for and discuss the first paid project. This will begin as a paid fixed-price trial project, with the opportunity for consistent ongoing work if we’re a strong fit.
