I’m a content creator and business owner looking for one video editor I can build a long term working relationship with.
Most of the time, I will provide the rough cut.
You will not usually be digging through hours of random footage trying to figure out what the video is supposed to be.
I handle the story and rough cut first. Your job is to take it from there and make the video feel finished, engaging, and visually interesting.
I create personality driven content around money, business, personal growth, relationships, lifestyle, and life in general.
The work will include both long form YouTube videos and short form content for Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
WHAT I’M LOOKING FOR
I want an editor who actually understands the content they are editing.
Someone who can recognize when a moment is funny, important, emotional, awkward, or worth letting breathe.
Someone who can look at a rough cut and think, “I know what would make this better,” without needing me to explain every single editing decision.
That might mean adding B roll, screenshots, text, memes, graphics, music, sound effects, zooms, or other creative elements.
It also means knowing when NOT to add something.
I do not want videos where something is flying onto the screen every three seconds just because you know how to do it.
Good pacing, storytelling, humor, personality, and visual taste matter more to me than flashy effects.
You do not need to be the most technically advanced editor in the world. I would rather work with someone who has strong creative instincts, communicates well, and can learn my style.
YOU SHOULD BE COMFORTABLE WITH
CapCut Desktop
Talking head and personality driven content
Long form and short form editing
Adding relevant B roll and visual elements
Working with spoken English content
Making creative decisions independently
Receiving feedback and applying what you learn to future videos
I specifically want to work in CapCut so we can share project files and I can easily review the timeline or make small changes myself when needed.
HOURS, PAY, AND GROWTH
This role will start at approximately 10 hours per week.
Pay is up to $10 USD per hour, depending on your skill, experience, editing quality, and speed.
I am looking for someone I can work with long term, so there will also be opportunities for:
Performance bonuses when videos perform especially well
Raises over time as you learn my style, consistently deliver strong work, and take on more responsibility
Additional hours as my content output and business grow
I want the person editing my content to benefit when the content is winning too.
THE GOAL
I do not want to hire a different freelancer every few videos.
I want one editor who gets to know me, my sense of humor, my content, and my editing style.
You will have references and feedback while you learn what I like, but the goal is for you to become more independent over time and make strong creative decisions without waiting for instructions on every detail.
TO APPLY
Please send:
1. Three videos you personally edited that you think are the best match for this role. Please choose your three most relevant examples instead of sending your entire portfolio.
2. Confirm that you currently edit in CapCut Desktop.
3. Your normal hourly rate in USD.
4. Your current weekly availability.
5. Tell me which of the three videos you submitted is your favorite and why.
Start your application with the word STORY so I know you read the full post.
That’s it.
I will review your actual editing work first.
If your work looks like it could be a good fit, I will invite you to complete a small paid editing trial using my actual footage.
