Summary

We are looking for a reliable and detail-oriented video editor to create short informative videos for our growing Amish lifestyle channel.

Clear guidelines and examples will be given to ensure consistency. We want THIS EXACT style — please study the reference video carefully before applying: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8-QNBd7MIo This includes matching the same on-screen face talking to camera (talking-head presenter) exactly as shown in the reference video — the presenter speaks directly to camera in medium shots, and their voice also narrates over relevant b-roll. We need this same on-screen presenter integration in every video. Our content focuses on Amish-themed home, health, and money-saving tip videos such as: "11 Amish Fixes For A Deadly Hot House — All Under $10" "8 Ways The AMISH KILL EVERY Mosquito — The $1 Bottle Exterminators Hide" Style notes to match (from the reference video): Calm, deliberate, steady pacing — never rushed Talking-head presenter on camera, alternating with narrated b-roll Clean cuts, occasional split-screens for contrast (modern vs. Amish), smooth cross-dissolves Extensive high-quality b-roll of Amish farm life, houses, attics, tools, etc. Warm, natural, rustic color grading; sepia/black-and-white for historical or "old ways" moments Soft acoustic folk background music with subtle ambient sound design (birds, wind, etc.) Hook → promise → countdown/list structure that keeps viewers watching to the end Responsibilities: Edit a minimum of 4 videos per week (ideally up to 7) Follow our visual style and storytelling format exactly as shown in the reference Deliver consistent, high-quality edits on time Communicate effectively and be open to feedback and adjustments Requirements: Experience with long-form video editing Basic motion graphics skills are a plus Ability to work independently and meet deadlines Understanding of engaging, calm-yet-retentive editing for list-style and educational videos Compensation: $1 per minute Performance bonus: If our channel reaches 1M+ monthly views, additional pay will be offered Multiple upcoming projects may lead to more work and long-term collaboration for successful editors Reference Video (match this exact style + on-screen face): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8-QNBd7MIo
