I'm an architect and the founder of a new disability nonprofit (Disability 3.0) launching this summer. I'm looking for a skilled, detail-oriented editor who can grow with a small but high-quality, mission-driven project. 1. Primary work -- video editing: I have iPhone footage shot simultaneously in three angles (forward-facing, rear-facing, and combo) from a recent trip. I need someone to: • Do a cleanup pass on 10–12 minute talking-head videos: remove filler words, false starts, dead air, and repeated phrases. • Rough-cut the cleaned footage into watchable segments, with basic decisions about when to cut between angles. • Produce platform-specific versions: YouTube (longer form), Instagram Reels (under 90 seconds), TikTok, and LinkedIn. • Add text overlays appropriate to each platform. 2. Secondary work -- web migration: • Recreate existing project profile pages from one website platform into an existing Wix site, following established design patterns. This is straight recreation work, not original design. 3. Possible additional work -- print design: • Create short PDF guides in Adobe Illustrator following provided brand guidelines. What I'm looking for: • Strong video editing portfolio, ideally talking-head or documentary-style content. • Comfortable working with multi-angle footage. • Honest about which skill areas are strongest -- I'd rather know upfront than discover it midproject. • Good communicator. This is iterative, feedback-driven work. • Available for an ongoing relationship as the nonprofit and firm grow. I have rough footage ready to work on, but have not decided which footage should become short vs medium vs long pieces. We'll collaborate on those decisions based on an initial cleanup of the footage, and I want to get your insights and suggestions, so experience in creating good social media content is crucial. Rate: $20-30/hr depending on experience. This is nonprofit work with a lean budget, but a cause worth being part of. Must be fluent in English and available during Pacific Time business hours for communication. Please include: a brief note on which skill areas you're strongest in, links to 2–3 relevant portfolio samples, and your availability.

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 run marketing for home-service businesses (pressure washing, exterior cleaning, and similar) and I'm looking for a video editor to cut short-form ad videos for Facebook and Instagram on an ongoing basis. What you'll be making: Vertical (9:16, 1080x1920) ad videos, typically 15–30 seconds, built for paid Meta campaigns. The formats we run include: - Founder-style talking videos with fast cuts and B-roll overlays - Before/after transformation reveals (split-screens, swipe/wipe transitions) - Timelapse process footage with speed-ramping "Review wall" social-proof videos (fast-scrolling stacks of 5-star review screenshots with featured readable quotes) - Simple text-card hooks and branded end cards with a call to action How we'll work: You won't be starting from a blank page. For every video, I'll give you a written shot-list/edit brief that lays out the concept, the timing shot-by-shot, the on-screen captions, and the brand colors/fonts. I'll supply all raw assets: phone footage, before/after photos, review screenshots, and logo files. Your job is to turn the brief + assets into a polished, scroll-stopping ad. Expected volume is 2–4 videos per month to start, more if the fit is good. This is long-term work for the right person. I'd rather build with one editor who learns our brands than re-explain everything each project. Skills required: * Strong short-form paid-ad editing (Meta/TikTok style pacing; a cut every 2–3 seconds, nothing sits still) * Bold, high-contrast burned-in captions that work with sound OFF, kept clear of the FB/IG UI zones * Clean speed-ramps, split-screens, and wipe/swipe reveals * Basic motion graphics (animated text, logo end cards, highlight/zoom on review screenshots) * Color/exposure cleanup of phone footage * Music selection that matches the edit rhythm (video must still work muted) * Ability to follow a written brief precisely AND flag when something in the brief won't work Nice to have: - Experience editing ads for local/home-service businesses or lead-gen campaigns - Understanding of what makes the first 3 seconds of an ad stop the scroll - Ability to deliver 2–3 hook variations of the same video for testing Deliverables per video: 1. Final MP4, 1080x1920, under 4GB, ready to upload to Meta Ads Manager 2. Project file or editable version so we can revise hooks/captions later 3. One round of revisions included Communication: I give clear, written direction and fast feedback. I expect a 24–48 hour first cut on most videos and responsiveness during US Eastern business hours (async is fine, just don't disappear for days). To apply: Send 2–3 examples of short-form vertical ads you've edited (paid ad work preferred over organic content). Tell me which one performed best and why you think it worked. Start your proposal with the word "SQUEEGEE" so I know you read this.
