Weekly Podcast Editor Needed
Worldwide
I run a podcast in the men's self-improvement space and I'm hiring an editor to turn my raw recordings into clean, polished episodes. One episode per week, ongoing. Raw recordings run roughly 40 minutes to 1.5 hours. The main editing work is cutting out all dead space and silences, removing stutters and false starts, and cutting any sections where we say on-recording that we want them removed (like "cut that part out"). You'll need to actually listen for these, not just run an auto-cut. Each episode also needs a cold open intro in the style of Jack Neel's podcasts — a highlight clip of the guest saying something compelling, with editing layered over it (cuts, music, pacing) to hook the viewer. Keep it tight, 10 to 12 seconds max. I'm also happy to record a voiceover for the intro. If you think a VO would make it stronger, just write out what you want me to say and I'll record it and send it over. Use whatever software you want, I only care about the final result. What matters is experience with podcasts or long-form content and a good ear for conversation flow so the episode feels natural after cuts, not choppy. I've attached a sample clip of something I want edited. If you edit it and include it with your proposal, I'm much more likely to work with you. To apply, send links to podcasts or videos you've edited your turnaround time for a recording this length, and how much you want per episode. Intro should be something like it is in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z0IGs3DVGno Sample Podcast: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1fIRkYfIbXT-L0Ej6deYAGSQBXVCvExNg/view?usp=sharing
