Summary

# YouTube Video Editor + Voiceover Artist Needed (Long-Form Documentary/Storytelling) I'm looking for a talented **YouTube video editor who can also provide professional voiceovers** for a long-term project. ### About the Channel The channel focuses on telling the story of **how famous people, places, brands, or historical figures became what they are today.** Think origin stories, history, success journeys, and the key moments that shaped them. Examples of topics: * How Elon Musk became the world's richest person * How Dubai became a global city * How Nike became a billion-dollar brand * The rise of famous historical figures and iconic places ### What I'll Provide * A complete script for every video * Topic research and direction * Any branding assets if needed ### What You Need to Do * Record a high-quality, engaging English voiceover * Edit the video using: * Stock footage * Photos * Motion graphics * Maps, timelines, and simple animations when appropriate * Text and subtitles where they improve engagement * Sound effects and background music * Deliver polished YouTube-ready videos that keep viewers engaged. ### Video Length * 8–10+ minutes per video ### Style I'm looking for a modern documentary style similar to channels like: * MagnatesMedia * Business Casual * James Jani * Johnny Harris * RealLifeLore The editing should feel cinematic, fast-paced, and highly engaging—not just a slideshow of images. ### Requirements * Excellent video editing skills * Professional English voiceover (clear, natural, and engaging) * Experience creating YouTube documentary or educational content * Strong storytelling and pacing * Ability to source copyright-safe visuals * Reliable communication and ability to meet deadlines ### To Apply Please include: 1. Links to your best YouTube editing work. 2. A sample of your voiceover. 3. Tell me what software you use (Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, etc.). 4. Your rate per 8–10 minute video. 5. The word **"Origin"** at the beginning of your proposal so I know you've read the entire post. This has the potential to become a long-term partnership with multiple videos each month if we're a good fit.
