The task is to create interactive, engaging, and educational video content, both long- and short-form, for an educational platform designed for college students. We will provide you with written content and the key concepts we want to teach for each video, and you will develop videos without changing the key concepts or the outlined content. There can be some artistic license to cut some things for time, but the key concepts must be clearly communicated as we see fit. Because this is designed for a college-age audience, we want these videos to be in a format that they will find engaging (ex. Youtube, TikTok, Reels, etc) but still communicate the concepts that we provide. We will provide brand guidelines with the color palettes and font formats we will need you to adhere to as much as possible. Our expectation of the workflow for this process is the following: - We provide you with the brief for the video - You will then create a high-level script or concept for how you plan to transform it into a video that clearly communicates the concepts and content - We will provide feedback or edits if, for example, we feel like the video isn't going to clearly communicate what we expect it to - You will create the video, and we will review and give final approval or provide further feedback for edits We will require that: - Applicants reside inside the United States - Applicants sign NDA's - Applicants submit a portfolio of work for us to review prior to engaging - Applicants complete a Test Assignment to ensure that they are a good fit with the workflow, and that their work is up to our standard - Applicants agree to never upload any content we provide into any AI of any kind in the process of producing our videos

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.
