Looking for a short-form editor for a branded UGC video (Instagram Reels) I'm producing a 15–30 second branded video for Jersey Mike's and need an creator/editor who can do a "hype edit" style finish — think sports highlight package energy applied to a giant sandwich. What you'll be working with: What the edit needs: Fast-cut, high-energy rhythm synced to an upbeat track Smooth camera movement / push-in effects Particle FX or light leak overlays Sound design (whooshes, impacts, etc.) Text overlay at the open Clean branded finish References: Think the "horse edit" / "uncle edit" trend on Reels — everyday subject gets the full sports-hype treatment. That's the joke and the hook. Deliverable: One final cut, vertical 9:16, optimized for Instagram Reels. Source files not required. Experience needed: Should have a portfolio showing this style specifically — Reels edits with motion FX and sound design, not just cuts and captions.

We're looking for a skilled video editor who specializes in short-form social media content (Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts) to join us on an ongoing, as-needed basis. This is a long-term contract relationship, but the work is project-based. Some weeks will have multiple edits, others none. We're looking for someone reliable who can turn projects around on a flexible schedule and grow with us over time. This is not standard video editing. Short-form for social has its own language: fast pacing, hooks in the first 2 seconds, dynamic captions, sound design, trend awareness, and platform-specific formatting. We need someone who genuinely understands what makes a short-form video perform, not just someone who can cut clips together. What you'll be doing: - Editing raw footage into polished short-form videos for social platforms - Adding captions, b-roll, music, sound effects, and motion/text elements - Cutting for retention; strong hooks, tight pacing, clean transitions Formatting correctly for each platform (vertical, aspect ratios, safe zones) What we're looking for: - Proven experience editing short-form social content (this is a must) - A strong eye for pacing, rhythm, and what holds attention - Reliable communication and consistent turnaround - Self-directed; you can take footage and a brief and run with it To be considered, please include: - A portfolio or reel of short-form work you've personally edited - Accounts or brands you've worked on (links to the actual posts/profiles if possible) - A short note on the tools you use (Premiere, CapCut, After Effects, etc.) - Your typical turnaround time and rate (per video or hourly) We review every application that includes work samples. Applications without examples of short-form work won't be considered. Looking forward to seeing what you've made!

I’m looking for an animator, animation team, or small studio to create a 13–15 minute fantasy cinematic short film based on a D&D campaign scene. The project is the intro to a D&D Campaign. The heroes arrive at an ongoing battle outside enormous city walls, where allied factions, demons, siege engines, magic, soldiers, and Commander Estelle Vorrin are already engaged in the fight. The tone should feel epic, dark, emotional, and cinematic. I am open to either stylized CGI, Unreal Engine/Blender cinematic animation, anime-inspired animation, or a motion-comic style with animated effects and camera movement. I understand that a full 13–15 minute animated short is a large project, so I’m open to discussing what style is realistic for the budget and timeline. Deliverables I’m looking for include: A storyboard or animatic before full production A 13–15 minute final video Cinematic camera movement Fantasy battle visuals Character and faction introductions Optional music, sound effects, and voiceover if offered Skills needed: Fantasy animation 2D or 3D animation Storyboarding Cinematic editing Battle/action scene composition Visual effects such as fire, smoke, magic, explosions, and siege warfare Strong communication throughout the project I prefer to work in stages: first discussing the concept and style, then approving a storyboard or animatic, then moving into full production. I would like regular progress updates and clear communication about what is realistic before committing to the full film. Please share examples of similar fantasy, action, anime, CGI, Unreal Engine, Blender, or cinematic work you have done, along with your estimated timeline, process, and budget range for a project of this length.
