Part Time
$150/video (15 to 30 min), ongoing

Sep 19, 2026
I make long form documentaries about music and culture for YouTube. Think the pacing of Patrick Cc:, the graphic language of Moon, the subject matter of MattyBallz. I write and research every episode myself. I need editors who can own the cut.
I am hiring MORE THAN ONE editor. I run videos in parallel instead of stacking them on one person, so nobody gets rushed.
THE WORK
- 15 to 30 minute finished documentaries
- You get a locked script, a finished voiceover track, organised footage, a pre cleared archival folder, and my own motion graphics preset kit. You are not hunting for clips or building titles from scratch.
- Adobe Premiere Pro. After Effects is a plus, not a requirement.
- Roughly one to two videos per month per editor, ongoing and steady
- Three week turnaround per video. That is a real deadline, not a squeeze.
WHAT I ACTUALLY CARE ABOUT
- Holding a viewer for twenty minutes. Retention, not cuts per second.
- Hook construction. The first sixty seconds d
- Hitting the date you agreed to. Consistency beats brilliance here.
PAY
150 USD per finished video to start, paid by Wise on delivery. More for editors who prove out over a few episodes. I do not make people chase invoices.
TO APPLY, READ THIS PART CAREFULLY
Send me:
1. Your reel
2. ONE full long form video you cut, with the link and a timestamp of the section you are proudest of
3. Your honest turnaround for a 20 minute documentary, from locked script to first draft
Then answer this in your own words. A short paragraph is plenty:
Pick ONE of these three channels: Patrick Cc:, Moon, or MattyBallz. Watch a recent video. Tell me one specific thing that channel does in its edit that you would steal, and one thing you would do differently.
Applications with no answer to that question get deleted. I read every single one that has it.
NEXT STEP
Shortlisted editors get a paid test: 75 USD for a two minute section of real footage, 72 hours to deliver. The same footage goes to everyone shortlisted, and I pay whether or not I hire you.
