JOB OVERVIEW

We are looking for a creative and reliable reel creator to help us produce short-form videos for Facebook and Instagram for our brands.

This is flexible, project-based work for someone who has extra availability and enjoys creating engaging social-media content.

This position has the potential to transition to a full-time social media manager for our businesses.

We are not looking for someone who only adds captions to raw footage. We need someone who can take a script and talking-head footage, then creatively build a complete reel around it.

What We Will Provide

- Reel scripts
- AI talking-head character footage
- Examples of the editing styles and reels we like if we happen to come across something that we believe fit our brand style.
- Access to our subscriptions for stock footage, images, icons, and similar creative assets

What you will do

- Turn scripts and AI talking-head footage into polished, engaging Facebook and Instagram reels
- Come up with the creative direction for each reel, including B-roll, visuals, stock clips, on-screen text, captions, transitions, pacing, music, sound effects, and basic motion effects
- Make the reels feel natural, modern, relatable, and native to social media
- Understand personal-brand-style content: conversational, human, trustworthy, and not overly corporate, generic, or salesy
- Make creative decisions that help stop the scroll, hold attention, and keep viewers watching
- Use the provided script as the foundation while bringing your own ideas for visuals, pacing, and storytelling
- Follow reference examples while adapting the creative approach to our own brands
- Make reasonable revisions when needed

Requirements

- Experience creating Instagram Reels, Facebook Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts, or similar short-form videos
- Strong understanding of personal-brand content and how to make talking-head videos engaging instead of static
- Strong sense of hooks, pacing, captions, visual storytelling, and retention-focused editing
- Able to independently choose suitable B-roll, stock footage, images, sound effects, music, and other creative elements
- You must have your own reliable computer, internet connection, and editing software such as CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar
- Good communication and ability to meet agreed deadlines
- Comfortable working independently from scripts and reference examples
- Able to accept feedback and make revisions where needed

Compensation

Compensation is approximately $5–$15 USD per reel, depending on the complexity, length, and creative work involved.

As a general guide:

$5–$7: Simple talking-head reels with captions, light B-roll, and basic edits
$8–$10: Standard creative reels with stronger B-roll, text effects, visual changes, pacing, and storytelling
Up to $15: More involved reels requiring additional creative work, research, motion elements, or more detailed editing

Rates will be agreed on before each reel is assigned.

Ongoing work is available for the right person.

Please send:

- Links to a few reels or short videos you personally edited for other brands
- A brief note explaining what part of each reel you created yourself
- The editing tools you use
- Your typical turnaround time for a 30–60 second reel
- Any questions you may have about the role

Please start your application with the subject line: “Creative Reel Editor”

Paid Test

Selected applicants will be asked to complete **two test reels** using scripts and AI talking-head footage we provide.

Each completed test reel that meets the requirements below will be paid **$8 USD per reel**.

To qualify for payment, the submitted reel must:

* Follow the provided script and instructions
* Be completed by the agreed deadline
* Include appropriate captions, visuals/B-roll, pacing, music or sound where suitable, and creative editing
* Be original work created specifically for this test
* Be free of watermarks, obvious errors, missing sections, or unusable footage
* Show a genuine effort to create a polished, engaging personal-brand-style reel

Submissions that are incomplete, copied, rushed, ignore the instructions, or do not meet the basic quality requirements will not qualify for payment.

The purpose of these tests is to find someone for ongoing work, not to collect free content. Strong applicants who demonstrate the right creative ability, communication, and reliability will receive regular reel assignments.

Applications without relevant reel examples will not be considered.
