Hi! I’m looking for a creative short-form video editor to help bring my
What you’ll be working on:
I’ll be providing recorded talking-head videos (mistakes already edited out), and you’ll be responsible for enhancing the watching experience through editing. There are approximately 50 videos, each around 5–15 minutes long.
The goal:
These aren’t YouTube videos created for entertainment purposes, they’re educational. So the editing should:
-support learning and comprehension
-highlight key ideas
-keep things visually engaging without being distracting
(And still feel fun to watch)
Scope of Work
Visual Enhancements
-Text + graphic overlays to reinforce key concepts
-Light motion graphics or callouts where helpful
-Static zooms and subtle movement to keep things dynamic
-Occasional GIFs or visuals where they genuinely add value
-Clean transitions (nothing overly flashy)
-Sound balancing and light sound design (sound effects + intro and outro music) where appropriate
Overall, think:creative, fun, thoughtful, personality-focused, not stiff or formal.
Required Skills
-Proficiency in tools like CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, or similar
-Strong sense of pacing and storytelling (even in educational content)
-Ability to make judgment calls on when to add visuals vs keep it simple
-Clear communication for feedback and revisions
Portfolio
Please include examples of:
-Talking-head content
-YouTube-style or educational/course content
Timeline
Start date: April 2026
Project timeline: ~1–2 months
(I’ll provide videos in batches each week to keep things manageable)
Additional Notes
This is a one-time project for now, but there’s a strong possibility for ongoing work if it’s a good fit!
If this sounds like something you’d enjoy working on, I’d love to see your work and hear more about your editing style.
Thanks so much, I appreciate your time!
Hollie :)
