JOB OVERVIEW

We’re looking for a skilled short-form video editor who can recreate the style of this reference Reel using footage we provide:

Reference:
----------

Please watch the full video before applying. We need someone who can closely match the pacing, cuts, text, transitions, effects, and sound design.

About Us
In 2020, I launched Skalka ( ---------- ), a successful restaurant in Seattle. In 2024, I founded Trendx Marketing (www.trendx.marketing), a growing marketing agency serving clients across the United States. I am also the creator ---------- ( ---------- /sergezd/), producing short-form content about Cebu, Filipino culture, food, and life in the Philippines for an international audience.

Our businesses are supported by a team of 15 people. We are now building a dedicated creative team in Cebu.

The Project
We already have the footage ready.

We will hire one editor for a paid, fixed-price Reel based on the reference above. If the quality is strong and we work well together, there is potential for ongoing video editing work.

What We’re Looking For
- Strong experience editing Reels, TikToks, or YouTube Shorts
- Ability to recreate a style from a reference
- Good eye for pacing, effects, captions, and sound design
- Reliable communication and turnaround
- Professional-quality portfolio

How to Apply

Use this exact subject line:

VIDEO EDITOR – REFERENCE WATCHED

Please include:
1. Confirm that you watched the entire reference Reel and tell us whether you are confident you can recreate this style using footage we provide.
2. Mention one specific editing technique, effect, or creative detail you noticed in the reference Reel.
3. Send 2–5 links to your best short-form video edits. Please prioritize work that is most similar to our reference rather than sending your entire portfolio.
4. Tell us which editing software you use.
5. Tell us your fixed-price quote for editing this one Reel.
6. Tell us your expected turnaround time once you receive the footage.

We will prioritize applicants who can demonstrate that they actually watched and analyzed the reference and can show previous work that proves they are capable of producing this level of editing.
