Has anyone encountered this issue at work? I am trying to heat up my food or drink in the microwave. And when I take the item out it absolutely reeks and tastes of strong spices. This is a fairly new work place I am at and the microwave is not extremely old. How do you guys deal with it? Do you just suck it up and drink a stinky spiced milk or just don’t drink or microwave food at work at all?
EDIT: I’m ignoring any applications that ignore the application instructions.
I’m looking for a YouTube-focused video editor for ongoing work in the music products space.
The regular workload will be:
1 × long-form YouTube video per month; generally around 6–10 minutes
2 × YouTube Shorts/Reels cut from the same project
Potential for additional regular work if it’s a good fit.
I’m specifically looking for someone who understands YouTube storytelling, not just someone who can technically edit footage.
You’ll generally be working with a mix of:
Talking-head footage
Product/demo footage
Interview/talking head footage
B-roll
What I’m looking for
You should have a strong understanding of:
- YouTube pacing and viewer retention (important!!)
- Storytelling and structuring an edit
- Identifying the strongest/most interesting moments from raw footage without needing me to point them out
-Cutting talking heads so they stay engaging
- Knowing when to use B-roll, product footage, punch-ins, graphics etc.
- Good motion graphics and typography
- Colour correction/grading
Excellent audio editing and sound design — particularly important as these are music products
Creating strong Shorts from long-form footage
I’m not looking for hyperactive editing or constant meme graphics. The videos still need room to breathe and feel tasteful.
The big thing I’m looking for is creative/editorial judgement.
I want to be able to give you the footage, explain the purpose of the video and trust you to find the best moments and build an engaging YouTube video from it — rather than having to prescribe every cut.
Budget: $500 flat per package.
To apply
Please reply using exactly this format:
Name:
Location / Time Zone:
Why I think I’m a good match:
Long-form example: [link to at least ONE complete YouTube video 6+ minutes that you personally edited]
What I did on that video: [editing / story / graphics / sound etc.]
Other portfolio/work: [link]
Price for 1 × 6–10 min long-form video + 2 Shorts:
Typical turnaround time:
Please don’t just send a showreel. I specifically want to see at least one complete 6+ minute YouTube video you’ve personally edited.
This is paid ongoing freelance work, initially one package per month, and I’m looking for someone I can build a long-term working relationship with.
Thanks!
($500 flat)
Just over the last couple hours. Anyone else?
I'm doing a major front end redesign of my store, and I've been hearing about people using Claude (or Cursor with Claude) connected directly to their Shopify theme to customise the design. I'm currently doing the redesign by giving ChatGPT the front end mockups I've done, and having it give me liquid code to manually paste into the theme code.
Is using Claude connected directly to the Shopify theme way better/easier? Or basically the same thing?
Any tips would be great! I'm intermediate with liquid and basic dev stuff, but not super familiar with GitHub. Cheers in advance!
