$4 per video

I'm a UGC content creator producing short-form video ads for apparel, wellness, and supplement brands that run on Meta and TikTok. I'm looking for a video editor who understands UGC-style editing specifically — fast-paced, caption-heavy, native-feeling short-form content, not traditional or corporate video editing.
You'll take raw clips I film (talking-to-camera segments, product demos, b-roll) and turn them into finished, publish-ready ads: trimmed, captioned, paced, and structured to hook viewer attention immediately and hold it through the call-to-action.
This is starting as a part
Responsibilities:
- Edit raw video clips into polished 15-60 second vertical ads (9:16) from a provided script and shot list
- Add clean, properly timed captions (not just raw auto-captions)
- Cut for fast pacing — tight jump cuts, no dead air, hook-first structure
- Add text overlays and simple motion graphics
- Use green screen / background replacement when needed
- Match tone and pacing to each brand's specific creative brief
- Turn around revisions quickly
- Communicate clearly and proactively — I'll send raw footage folders and need someone who can work independently from a brief
Requirements:
- Strong experience with CapCut and/or Premiere Pro/Final Cut
- Portfolio specifically showing UGC or short-form ad editing (not just general video editing — this is the most important requirement)
- Caption styling and timing experience
- Green screen/chroma key experience
- Reliable internet and consistent availability
- Strong written English communication
- Able to hit fast turnaround times
Pay: Will start at $4 per video (as volume, performance, and time progresses, open to looking into other options)
To Apply:
Please send:
Links to 2-3 UGC or short-form ad editing examples (this is required — general portfolios without UGC-specific work won't be considered)
