I run a travel YouTube channel that blends documentary-style storytelling with vlog energy — real stories, 5–20 minute videos.

I have basic editing skills; I’ll build the full rough cut in CapCut with footage and most of the structure and creative direction already in place. What I need is someone who can take that and turn it into something I couldn't have made on my own.

I'm looking for someone who brings their own creative sauce while staying true to the vision. I want this to be a collaboration, not just a paid gig.

For reference, I love the pacing and energy of videos like these:

Here's a sample of my most recent work so you can see the style and where I'm at:

Workflow:
• I send you a structured rough cut with footage and creative direction in place
• You deliver a polished final version that elevates the edit creatively
• If you see a moment that could hit harder or deserves a different treatment — go for it
• Revisions should be minimal
• Turnaround is flexible — we'll find a rhythm that works

Budget: $200–$700 CAD per video, depending on length and complexity. I have multiple videos in my backlog, so this isn't a one-off.

Down the line, there's also potential for bonus work like short-form edits, thumbnails, and other creative assets as the channel grows.

What I'm looking for:
• An editor who understands storytelling
• Strong instinct for pairing visuals with music and sound design
• Bonus if you've edited travel, lifestyle, or documentary content before

If this sounds like you, shoot me an email at koldkeatan@gmail.com with:

1. A link to your portfolio or relevant work
2. A short reason why you think we'd work well together
3. Include the word "tr@vel" in your email so I know you've read this

If it's a fit, the next step is you walk me through your best work. From there, happy to do a paid sample edit.

Let's make something sick. 🤝
