My name is Melanie Guintu, and I’m a travel vlogger focused on sharing authentic, real-life experiences around the world.
I’m currently looking for a video editor to help with:
• Long-form YouTube videos
• Short-form content (YouTube Shorts, TikTok, Reels)
My editing style is not overly flashy. I value:
• Strong storytelling
• Clean, intentional cuts
• Emotional connection
• Relatable, real
The goal is to create engaging, binge-worthy content that keeps viewers watching and performs well on YouTube. I’m also looking for someone who can clip long-form YouTube videos into viral Shorts and Reels.
Typical output:
• ~2 YouTube videos (~30 mins to 1 hour each)
• ~5
• ~7-10 Shorts/Reels (~60 seconds each)
My travel vlogs are filmed in a more raw live stream style, so the editing focus is less on heavy effects and more on:
• Cutting out slower or unnecessary
• Maintaining strong pacing and flow
• Shaping the footage into a clear, engaging storyline
I’m looking for someone who:
• Understands YouTube pacing, retention, and viewer psychology
• Can structure footage into a compelling story (not just basic edits)
• Knows how to hook viewers in the first few seconds and maintain attention throughout
• Can add captions, music, and occasional effects/sound design to enhance engagement (without overdoing it)
Bonus if you:
• Have experience editing travel or vlog-style content
• Understand viral content and short-form clipping
I’d like to start with a small test project, and if it’s a good fit, continue working together long-term.
If you’re interested, please send:
1. Examples of your work (especially YouTube content)
2. Your rate per video or per hour
3. Your turnaround time
Start your message with “sunshine” so I know you read this.
Looking forward to working together!
Best,
Melanie Guintu
