Video Editor for Founder Story Reel

Posted 3 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

Hi! I'm the founder of an Australian app built for FIFO (Fly-in, Fly-out) workers. Pre-launch, building founder-led content for Instagram and TikTok. Looking for an editor who can take raw b-roll footage and turn it into an engaging, cinematic story reel - and help me think through the best narration approach before we record. The style: Think @founded. Third-person documentary-style narration over b-roll. Cinematic but raw, authentic over polished. Reference: @founded on Instagram. Before we record: I'd like your input on narration - whether to use a hired Aussie voiceover artist, an AI voice clone, or another approach, based on what will actually cut best for this style. Happy to jump on a quick call to align before footage is shot and narration is locked. Script is locked and will be sent directly once we connect. What you'll be working with: B-roll from remote WA work sites, airports, and everyday FIFO life Stock footage may supplement where needed Brand colours and logo files Reference reels for style direction What I need: B-roll cut synced precisely to narration, no talking head Cinematic colour grade - gritty, real, not corporate Mixed typography overlays synced to voiceover Music that builds under the voice without overpowering it 9:16 vertical format 30-50 seconds To apply: Send 2-3 examples of narrated b-roll documentary-style edits (no talking head). Also let me know your view on the best narration approach for a project like this. Budget: Per reel, open to discussion.
