About

I am looking to hire a reliable and skilled video editor for ongoing work to transform hours of raw footage into engaging, short-form video clips (under 60 seconds) optimized for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. This is a long-term position for the right candidate. About the Project: I generate a high volume of raw footage weekly (e.g., long-form interviews, vlogs, educational content). Your primary role will be to identify the most compelling moments/soundbites, edit them into punchy, captivating clips, and add suitable captions/subtitles and engaging visuals. Responsibilities: Review raw footage and pinpoint high-value moments or soundbites suitable for social media. Edit clips using best practices for social media engagement (fast cuts, captivating intros, clear messaging). Add dynamic, "Alex Hormozi-style" captions/subtitles (essential!). Incorporate relevant B-roll, stock footage, sound effects, and background music. Optimize final videos for various platforms (9:16 aspect ratio). Deliver final edited clips on a consistent weekly schedule. Requirements: Proven experience editing short-form social media content. Strong portfolio demonstrating your ability to create engaging, thumb-stopping videos. Proficiency with video editing software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut). Understanding of current social media trends and engagement strategies. Excellent communication skills and ability to meet deadlines. Bonus: Experience with graphic design or motion graphics. A link to your portfolio with specific examples of short-form content you’ve edited (TikTok/Reels/Shorts). Briefly describe your process for adding dynamic captions/subtitles.
