Hello, I’m looking for a talented short-form video editor to help grow a documentary YouTube channel focused on culture, adventure, photography, and storytelling around the world.
The channel features stories and experiences from places such as Colombia, Cuba, India, Mexico, Dagestan, and beyond.
We have hundreds of hours of documentary footage and will be publishing daily Shorts, so there is no shortage of content to work with.
Your Mission
Create Shorts that get views.
You’ll be turning documentary footage, behind-the-scenes content, photography adventures, interviews, and travel experiences into highly engaging YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, and TikToks.
This is not a simple “clip and caption” role.
I’m looking for someone who understands:
· Hooks
· Retention
· Curiosity
· Storytelling
· Viewer Psychology
Views are our #1 priority.
What You’ll Be Doing
· Edit 7+ Shorts per week
· Create strong hooks in the first 1–2 seconds
· Find compelling
· Add captions and sound design
· Improve pacing and retention
· Deliver platform-ready exports
· Suggest ideas for future Shorts
· Help identify
Who This Role Is For
· You study successful Shorts regularly
· You understand why people stop scrolling
· You understand retention
· You enjoy storytelling
· You are reliable and communicative
· You want a long-term collaboration
Who This Role Is NOT For
· Editors who only do weddings
· Editors who only do corporate work
· People who rely entirely on templates
· Editors who don’t care about analytics
· People looking for quick one-off gigs
