I make 10–16 minute video essays about movies — box office flops, franchise disasters, behind-the-scenes stories, that kind of thing. Think documentary style, not reaction content. I need someone to take over the editing so I can focus on writing and producing. WHAT THE JOB ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE I'll send you a Final Cut Pro timeline with the voiceover already in it. The VO is fully edited on my end — voice isolation, EQ, leveling, all of that is handled. You don't touch the voiceover quality at all. It's divided into chapters with labels so you always know what part of the story you're in. Music is not in the timeline. That's on you. I'll give you a playlist of songs to pull from, and you place them where they fit. Here's what you'd be doing: - Cutting up the audio so there's no dead space and words are close together - Placing the music to match the tone and pacing of each section - Dropping in visuals to match what the voiceover is talking about — something new on screen every 4–8 seconds - Adding text here and there, like if a year gets mentioned or a name comes up. Nothing crazy, very minimal - Finding and screenshotting news headlines. My videos use a ton of these. They're pretty easy to find — just Google the headline, zoom in so the text looks clean, and screenshot it. If you're stuck on one just hit me up and I'll help you find it - No transitions. Just clean cuts. And I prefer video clips over still photos whenever possible because it keeps things more engaging, but photos throughout will be needed WHAT I GIVE YOU BEFORE EACH VIDEO I try to make this as painless as possible for whoever's editing: - A full download list of every visual you'll need — photos, clips, everything. It's all in one list so you're not digging around the internet for hours - A YouTube playlist of memes and reaction clips to use for funny moments - A playlist of songs for background music - The Final Cut Pro timeline with the VO already done and chapters labeled YOU NEED TO HAVE STORYTELLING INSTINCTS I want to be real about this — these videos tell the full story of a movie from start to finish. The production, the casting drama, the release, the box office numbers, what happened after. There's a real narrative arc to each one and the visuals need to match that energy. Like if the voiceover is talking about how a movie tanked at the box office, don't just slap a random photo up there. Throw in a SpongeBob crying clip or something that actually sells how bad it was. When the story is building up to a big premiere, the visuals should feel exciting. When everything falls apart, the editing should feel like it too. You're telling the story with me, not just filling the screen. And yeah, I use a LOT of SpongeBob clips. Most of my reaction memes and comedic cuts come from SpongeBob. If you're a SpongeBob fan you're going to have a way easier time knowing what clip goes where. PACING Right now my videos have a new visual every 1–3 seconds and honestly it's too fast. I'm slowing it down. I want the audio to still feel tight with no dead air, but the visuals should sit on screen a bit longer — every 4–8 seconds. More of a documentary feel, less TikTok energy. HOW LONG IT TAKES With my current style (new clip every 1–3 seconds), each video takes about 6–7 hours to edit. At 4–8 seconds per visual change, that drops a lot — probably 3–4 hours per video once you get the hang of my style. PAY AND TURNAROUND $125 per video. You get 4–6 days to finish each one, so you're never rushed. Every week I'll send you the next video's details and timeline on the same day — either Tuesday or Friday. There's also a $150 bonus for every 1 million view milestone any video you edit hits. So if a video blows up and hits 5 million views, you're getting $750 as a bonus on top of what you already got paid. I'll pay you every time I notice a video has passed a new milestone. WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR You need to edit in Final Cut Pro. I also need someone who can commit to 1 video a week consistently. I'm not looking for someone who disappears after two videos. If something comes up in your life that's totally fine, just communicate with me. IF YOU'RE INTERESTED Send me these things: 1. A sample of something you've edited, ideally a video essay or commentary-style video 2. Let me know you edit in Final Cut Pro 3. How fast you usually turn things around 4. A quick note about your editing background 5. Bonus points — tell me your favorite movie

I’m looking for an editor who can turn a rough 9-minute Screen Studio recording into a polished 45–60 second product demo. The recording compares two Google Sheets tools. Your job is to identify the key moments, remove all unnecessary junk, and create a fast, engaging comparison that clearly demonstrates the setup and the output for each product (i.e. how each products performs the task in a way that makes it clear how they compare to each other) What you’ll do * Edit a 9-minute Screen Studio recording into a 45–60 second video. * Trim aggressively while preserving a clear narrative. * Speed up sections where appropriate. * Use Screen Studio camera movement, zooms, and focus effects to direct attention. * Reframe the recording so viewers always know what they’re looking at. The final video should * Be easy to follow, even for someone unfamiliar with the products. * Feel fast-paced without feeling rushed. * Highlight only the most important interactions. * Look polished and intentional—not like a simple screen recording. Deliverables * One 45–60 second Screen Studio video. * Source project file. * Exported 4K MP4. Please include examples of screen-recording or software demo videos you’ve edited. Experience with Screen Studio is strongly preferred.

I’m looking for a video editor for a YouTube channel in the bodycam, police encounter, and arrest footage niche. The idea is pretty simple. We find videos in this niche that are already doing well, then re edit them with a better style, a better angle, stronger pacing, and a more engaging story. We are not trying to reinvent the wheel. We want to take what works, improve it, and make it feel more unique. The main thing I care about is retention. The video needs a strong intro hook, good cuts, a real sounding AI voice, and pacing that keeps people watching. Our goal is to aim for around 46% average percentage viewed or better. It would also be a plus if you know how to reverse engineer videos and find the original unedited footage. For example, taking screenshots from a video and using Google image search to track down the original source. The edit should feel clean, entertaining, and easy to watch. Nothing too over edited or fake looking. Just a better version of what already works. My budget is low right now because the channel is still growing, but I am looking for someone long term. As the channel grows, the budget will increase too. Please send me a few examples of videos you have edited and let me know what rate you are thinking per video. Thank you.

I’m searching for someone who can create/edit short Amazon listing videos for products. Experience with Amazon-style videos and product content is preferred.
