Video editor needed for short faceless YouTube videos (recurring work possible)

Posted 4 weeks ago

Worldwide

Summary

I am launching a faceless YouTube channel in the medical billing niche, aimed at small medical practices. I have a 6 to 8 minute voiceover audio file and a script. I need an editor to turn it into a finished video, ready to upload. Format and style: The video is intentionally simple. White text on a solid black background. No music, no sound effects, no animations, no transitions beyond hard cuts. The voiceover plays continuously while text on screen highlights the key points being discussed. Think of the visual style as a clean, minimal explainer video. Not flashy, not template-heavy, not TikTok-style. The audience is small business owners (medical practice owners), so the tone should feel professional and serious. What I will provide for each video: 1. The voiceover audio file (already recorded by me, in .m4a or .mp3). 2. A written script that includes the exact text I want shown on screen, in order, with rough timing notes. 3. A short list of style notes (font, font size range, text positioning). What I need delivered: 1. A finished MP4 video at 1080p, ready to upload to YouTube. 2. Auto-generated captions that have been reviewed and corrected. The captions will include medical terms (CPT codes, modifiers, remittance advice, coinsurance, etc.) that automatic captioning tools typically get wrong. I expect the editor to review and fix these. 3. The original editable project file (in whatever editor you use) so I have access to it if needed. Scope of this job: I am starting with one video as a paid test. If the work is good and the communication is clear, I am open to ongoing weekly or biweekly editing for additional videos. Turnaround: I am not in a rush. I would prefer a 5 to 7 business day turnaround on the first video so you have time to do it well, rather than a faster but lower-quality version. What I am looking for in an editor: Clear written English communication. I do not need fancy effects or showy editing. I need someone who is reliable, communicates promptly, and follows the script precisely. Attention to detail with the captions matters because the audience is a professional one and accuracy signals competence. To apply, please include: 1. A short paragraph (not a generic template) about why this kind of editing work fits you. 2. Links to 1 or 2 examples of similar faceless or explainer-style videos you have edited. 3. Your flat rate for one finished video at this scope (please quote per video, not per hour). 4. Confirmation of which video editing software you use.
