Type: Part-Time / Project-Based / Gig
Payment: USD $30–$60 per completed video
Expected Volume: Approximately 5–10 videos per month
Video Length: Maximum 30 seconds
Work Setup:

About the Role:
We are looking for a talented and creative Video Editor to help us produce short, polished, and engaging videos for social media and marketing content.

This is a part-time, project-based role. You will be paid per completed video rather than by the hour.

The videos will be short-form content, with each finished video being 30 seconds or less. We are looking for someone who has a strong eye for pacing, visuals, transitions, and overall presentation.

This is a great opportunity for an editor who wants flexible, ongoing freelance work without a fixed full-time schedule.

What You'll Do
* Edit short-form videos up to 30 seconds
* Create clean, engaging, and visually appealing edits
* Trim and arrange footage for strong pacing
* Add captions, text, transitions, music, sound effects, and other elements when appropriate
* Follow a creative brief or direction
* Deliver polished, ready-to-use videos
* Make reasonable revisions based on feedback
* Maintain consistency in quality and style across projects

What We're Looking For
* Proven experience in short-form video editing
* Strong sense of visual storytelling and pacing
* Good understanding of social media video content
* Attention to detail
* Ability to take direction and apply feedback
* Reliable communication and ability to meet agreed deadlines
* Creative judgment — we want someone who can make the video better, not simply follow instructions

Portfolio Required
Your portfolio is the most important part of your application.
Please submit your portfolio and include your TOP 3–5 BEST VIDEO EDITS:
Do not send a large collection of random work. We would rather see a few excellent examples that demonstrate your strongest editing skills.
Please make sure your portfolio shows the quality of work you can consistently deliver.

Compensation
USD $30–$60 per completed video, depending on:
* Editing complexity
* Quality of work
* Experience
* Creative requirements

Expected workload is approximately 5–10 videos per month, although the volume may vary depending on our content needs.
There is potential for ongoing work for the right person.

How to Apply
Please include the following in your application:
1. Portfolio link
2. Your TOP 3–5 best video edits
3. What video editing software you use (CapCut, Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro, etc.)
4. Your experience with short-form/social media video editing
5. Your current availability for project-based work
6. Your expected turnaround time for a 30-second video
7. Your rate within the $30–$60 per video range

Important: Applications without a portfolio or examples of your best work will not be considered.

Sample Video Reference
To give you an idea of the type of short-form videos we are looking for, please review the sample video below:
Sample Video: ---------- -

The sample is provided as a general reference for the expected format, pacing, and overall quality. You are not expected to copy the video exactly. We are looking for an editor who can bring their own creativity and editing style while maintaining a professional and engaging result.

Please review the sample before applying and make sure you are comfortable producing similar short-form content.

We are looking for someone who can consistently produce high-quality, professional, engaging short-form videos and potentially work with us on an ongoing basis.
