Project Overview:
I am a filmmaker producing narrative short films and behind-the-scenes content. I want to turn my footage, voiceovers, and scripts into high-retention, fast-paced short-form videos to promote my work online.

I will provide:
Voiceover narration
Script / structure
Reference images and/or footage
Creative direction and notes for pacing

What I Need From You:
Edit 1 vertical video (9:16 format)
Length: 20–45 seconds
Add dynamic pacing (fast cuts, no dead air)
Add kinetic captions / subtitles
Basic sound design (whooshes, hits, transitions if needed)
Strong hook within first 1–2 seconds
Story-driven flow suitable for YouTube Shorts / Instagram Reels

Style Reference:
Looking for edits similar to:
Fast-paced filmmaker BTS content
Cinematic YouTube Shorts storytelling
Attention-retaining social media edits (hook-driven, punchy pacing)
Think: clean, engaging, and designed for retention.

Budget:
$50–$100 per finished video
(Open to discussion depending on experience and quality)

Workflow:
1–2 rounds of revisions included
Ongoing work available if collaboration goes well

Ideal Editor:
Experience editing YouTube Shorts, TikTok, or Instagram Reels
Strong sense of pacing and storytelling
Comfortable working from VO + script rather than full footage
Understands retention editing (hooks, pattern interrupts, captions)

To Apply, Please Include:
