Posted yesterday

Worldwide

Summary

I’m looking for a video editor for a paid test project. I create short comedy/storytelling videos for social media. I will provide the original video clips and explain the story/order of the scenes. For this test project: * Final video length: approximately 1–2 minutes maximum * Budget: $15 fixed price * I will provide all original footage * The editor should select the best moments and create a fast, entertaining edit * Add appropriate cuts, zooms, sound effects, music, captions/text, and memes when they genuinely improve the joke or story * Keep the pacing engaging and remove unnecessary or boring moments I am not looking for over-editing or random effects everywhere. Good comedic timing and understanding the story are more important to me. Experience level is not very important. Your actual editing ability and style are what matter. Please send me 1–3 examples of short-form videos you personally edited, preferably comedy, storytelling, Reels, TikTok, or YouTube Shorts. This is a paid test project. If I like the result and we work well together, I may offer more videos in the future. Please do not start any work until we have discussed the project and an Upwork contract is active.
