Vlog editor

HIGH-LEVEL YouTube Travel Vlog Editor — LONG-TERM We are looking for an ELITE YouTube Travel Vlog Editor who understands cinematic storytelling, talking-head editing, and YouTube retention. This is NOT a basic editing position. You will take 3–5 hours of raw travel footage and turn it into an entertaining, story-driven 15–20 minute YouTube vlog. 🎬 EDITING STYLE / MODEL VIDEOS You MUST be able to match this level of editing: https://youtu.be/7UGf4YbAuzs?is=8EIvqDTEQtFHr0fj https://youtu.be/kSTKGNygvh4?is=T1oZxwR0Xh-PKT2o https://youtu.be/-5irxNJxLJY?is=hTqagpZDhHTwPukY https://youtu.be/WaRVyJzUpr4?is=hAALsnzCvSYrdp8G WATCH THESE BEFORE APPLYING.

You need to find the best moments and create a story: HOOK → SETUP → JOURNEY → UNEXPECTED MOMENTS → PAYOFF → ENDING You should know what to cut, keep, speed up, slow down, and emphasize without needing us to explain every edit. We’re hiring a storyteller, not just someone who knows editing software. 📩 HOW TO APPLY Start your proposal with “PASSPORT” so we know you read everything. Send: 1. Your 3 BEST travel/vlog edits 2. Your BEST talking-head edit 3. Your rate for a 15–20 minute video 4. Your average turnaround time 5. What editing software you use Do NOT send 20 portfolio links. Only send your BEST work. 🚀 LONG-TERM OPPORTUNITY We are looking for ONE MAIN EDITOR, not a one-off freelancer. We want someone who can learn the creator’s personality, humor, pacing, storytelling style, and brand and eventually take full creative ownership of the edits. If you can match the quality of the reference videos and want consistent long-term work, apply. Start your proposal with “PASSPORT.”
