Summary

I am looking for a detail-oriented, disciplined Video Editor / Assembly Specialist to assemble a 45-minute video project. All core concepts, script breakdowns, audio, and scene-by-scene instructions are fully developed. Your primary responsibility will be translating my exact structural blueprint into a clean, professional final video. What You Will Be Doing: Timeline Assembly: Assemble the 45-minute timeline strictly according to provided scene-by-scene instructions and shot lists. Asset Integration: Source and integrate appropriate high-quality b-roll, graphics, or stock visuals where indicated by the scene notes. Audio Post-Production: Sync audio tracks, level dialogue, reduce background noise, and mix subtle background music/SFX. Finishing Touches: Color correction across clips, smooth transitions, and clean text overlays/titles if required by the outlines. Revision Cycles: Implement precise, timestamped feedback through 1–2 draft reviews. Required Qualifications & Skills: Proven experience in non-linear editing (Kdenlive, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or equivalent NLE). Strong ability to strictly follow detailed documentation and structural blueprints without deviating from the scope. Excellent media organization and local file management skills. Willingness to sign a standard Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) prior to receiving full internal project documentation and scene outlines. Deliverables: High-bitrate 1080p MP4 final render (plus project files if requested). Milestone & Payment Structure ($650 Total Fixed Budget) Milestone 1 ($150): First 10 Minutes (Rough Cut / Style Check) Milestone 2 ($300): Full 45-Minute Rough Assembly Milestone 3 ($200): Final Polish, Audio Mix, Revisions & Final Render Delivery Screening Questions for Applicants "Have you worked on projects where you strictly followed a scene-by-scene script or blueprint? Please link 1–2 examples." "What editing software (NLE) do you primarily use for video editing and audio leveling?" "Are you comfortable signing a standard Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA) before receiving internal project documentation?" Final Step: Copy the text above into Upwork, set your location preference, select your $650 budget with the 3 milestones, sign the NDA with your top applicant, and you're ready to start!
