Hiring a YouTube log-form video editor for Film Analysis channel

*Please look at the channel and the content to see style and expectations. A few applications have asked questions without any research.*

I'm looking for a video editor for a long-form film analysis YouTube channel.

The videos are storytelling-based, inside the mafia gangster niche.

The editing itself is relatively straightforward. Most of the work involves matching the supplied voice-over with relevant film footage, images, and other visuals while keeping the pacing clean and engaging.

Editing is done in Adobe Premiere Pro. Some basic animation is required, but ideally done in Premiere too.

The videos generally use around a 90/10 split between narration and film clips, to avoid any YouTube strikes and fall within fair use.

Pay:

  • $90 for videos around 3 minutes
  • $120 for videos around 5 minutes

Looking for someone who:

  • Is comfortable working in Premiere Pro
  • Has a interest in classic mafia films
  • Can find and select relevant footage
  • Understands basic YouTube pacing and visual flow
  • Is open to feedback and adapting to an established editing style

There should be around one video per week, with long-term work available for the right person.

If interested, apply here:

[Hiring] Short-Form Video Editor for AI/Tech Instagram Reels — Overseas Welcome, Long-Term Potential

Hey everyone,

I run nic.builds, a growing personal brand focused on AI, tech, productivity, and showing people practical ways to use new tools.

I’m looking for a short-form video editor who wants to grow with the brand long term.

My content is primarily talking-head Instagram Reels breaking down AI tools, new technology, tutorials, experiments, and interesting things happening in AI.

Here are two examples of the editing style I like:

https://www.instagram.com/p/DdWeq2BxGhY/

https://www.instagram.com/p/DaiCxAkOpNb/

The biggest thing I care about is understanding the content.

I don’t want someone who just throws captions, zooms, and B-roll onto a template. I want an editor who understands what I’m saying and uses the edit to make the idea easier and more entertaining to understand.

What I’m looking for:

  • Strong English and comprehension
  • Great sense of pacing — fast and clean with no unnecessary dead air
  • Clean, modern captions
  • Ability to closely recreate/reference editing styles I send
  • Good instincts around B-roll, screenshots, graphics, memes, and visual storytelling
  • Someone who takes feedback well and improves quickly
  • Motion graphics skills are a big plus
  • Interest in AI, tech, or creator content is a plus

You do not need years of professional experience. I’m open to newer editors who are talented, hungry to improve, and want someone who will give them consistent feedback and help them develop.

The work:

Vertical Instagram Reels, usually 30–90 seconds.

I’ll provide the raw footage and direction.

We’ll start paid per video. If we work well together, I want this to become consistent weekly work and potentially a full-time editing position as nic.builds grows.

Overseas editors are absolutely welcome. I just need some reasonable overlap with Mountain Time in the U.S. for communication.

If you’re interested, DM me with:

  • Your country/time zone
  • Your short-form editing portfolio
  • Your rate per Reel
  • What software you edit in
  • A quick sentence about why you think you’d be a good fit for nic.builds

Please reach out only if you’re interested in something long term.

I’d rather find one editor, teach them exactly how I like content edited, and grow together than constantly rotate through freelancers.

[HIRING] Gaming / Short-Form Video Editor — $400/mo Starting Retainer — Ongoing Creative Role

I'm looking for an emerging video editor interested in building an ongoing creative relationship with a gaming streamer and a small independent media project.

I'm not looking for an agency, a clip farm, or someone whose only job is to make whatever timestamp I send them look flashy.

I'm looking for someone who can eventually understand the people they're editing.

The gaming side

I currently stream roughly 5 days per week, with two of those typically being longer, multi-hour sessions. Gaming content is primarily MMO-focused right now, but won't necessarily stay limited to one game or genre.

Importantly, I do not expect you to watch 20+ hours of raw VOD every week.

I'm already using AI-assisted highlight detection, proprietary/automated clipping technology, and manual stream markers to surface likely moments. You'll generally have a pool of candidate moments to start from rather than a giant unmarked VOD.

The automated tools are pretty good at finding something. They're much less good at understanding why something was funny.

That's where I want a person.

Over time, I'd like you to learn my personality, my crew, our sense of humor, and eventually the audience well enough that you can recognize:

  • A genuinely funny interaction
  • A great reaction or personality moment
  • Something impressive, stupid, or unusual happening in-game
  • A useful/interesting gameplay moment
  • Something the automated tools completely misunderstood
  • A moment that could become good content with the right edit

Sometimes I'll explicitly mark something. Sometimes the tooling will find it. Eventually, I hope you'll find things I didn't.

The primary output will be polished short-form content for TikTok, YouTube Shorts and Reels, along with worthwhile horizontal clips and occasional longer gaming edits when something deserves it.

There's also a broader media project

Gaming will initially represent roughly 75% of the work, but this isn't intended to be exclusively a gaming-clips role.

I'm also developing podcast and review content.

That side is currently much lighter production work: things like subtitle/caption cleanup, annotations, timing/alignment, minor cuts, QC, exports, and identifying occasional moments worth repurposing for social.

I'm not expecting someone to take hours of raw multicamera footage and magically produce a television show for $100.

The goal is eventually to have someone who understands the overall style we're developing rather than hiring an unrelated freelancer every time something needs editing.

Compensation

The role starts at a guaranteed $400/month retainer.

I'm deliberately calling that a starting retainer rather than attaching a price to every clip.

I care much more about quality and judgment than volume. If a week produces three things genuinely worth publishing, I'd rather have three good pieces than manufacture ten mediocre Shorts because we established a quota.

Likewise, I'm not expecting unlimited editing hours for $400. If the scope materially grows, compensation needs to grow with it.

This is a real paid role today. I'm building the broader project with long-term ambitions, and there's absolutely room for the role to become larger if the project grows and we work well together; but I'm not offering hypothetical future success as compensation for work now.

Who I'm hoping to find

You do not need a huge professional résumé or agency portfolio.

In fact, I'm very open to someone earlier in their editing career who is looking for a recurring project they can genuinely become invested in.

Good instincts matter more to me than knowing every Premiere/Resolve/After Effects trick.

I'd especially like someone who:

  • Understands gaming and internet culture
  • Has a good sense of comedic timing
  • Can recognize when less editing is better than twelve zooms and sound effects
  • Is comfortable making creative suggestions rather than only following instructions
  • Takes feedback well
  • Wants to learn the personalities and community behind the footage
  • Is interested in an ongoing relationship rather than completing anonymous one-off gigs

You can use Premiere, Resolve, Final Cut, whatever. I care about the result.

Applying

Send me a Reddit DM/chat with:

1. A little about you.
What do you edit? What games/content are you into?

2. 2–4 examples of your work.
Paid client work is not required. Personal projects absolutely count.

3. Your primary editing software.

4. Tell me what YOU think makes a gaming clip actually worth watching.

This one matters to me more than a generic cover letter.

5. Your general availability and time zone.

Please do not create unpaid sample work as part of your application.

Once I've narrowed things down, I intend to give a small number of finalists the same source material and ask each to produce a couple of edits as a paid trial. That lets you see the actual content and lets me see how you interpret it before either of us commits to an ongoing relationship.

About the project / anonymity

I'm posting from the media project's account, but I'm intentionally not publicly identifying the streamer, channels, or other properties yet.

This isn't because there's anything particularly secretive going on. I'd simply rather evaluate people based on their work and have a conversation before attaching the project publicly to a hiring post.

Finalists will get the actual channels/content and broader context before deciding whether they want the role.

If you're an editor who's been looking for something you can grow with and develop some ownership over creatively, rather than another folder called clips_final_FINAL_v3, I'd like to hear from you.

[HIRING] Thumbnail Artist — $15-30/thumbnail — True Crime Documentary

Looking for a thumbnail artist for a true crime documentary YouTube channel. Style needs to be cinematic and moody, closer to a documentary poster than a typical true crime thumbnail.

Pay: $15-30/thumbnail

Format: YouTube thumbnails for long-form documentary content

Style/Niche: Cinematic, moody, restrained, true crime documentary

Style notes:

- Not clip-art gore or exaggerated shock-face reaction thumbnails

- Not the loud red-arrow/circle-face style common on true crime channels

- Not an AI-collage or generic stock-photo look

- Should feel like a deliberate piece of art tied to the specific case, not a template with a new photo dropped in

Requirements:

- Strong understanding of thumbnail psychology

How to apply (via Discord, I'm sharing this on behalf of the client, not hiring directly): Send your portfolio (true crime/documentary/atmospheric work first) to rainy9911 on Discord (https://discord.com/users/959312897308254248), then follow up your message with the phrase "no gore" to confirm you've read the brief.

Hey everyone! 👋
I’m launching a brand new YouTube channel focused on deep-dive, documentary-style videos heavily inspired by Johnny Harris. I'm talking about fast-paced storytelling, custom map animations, kinetic typography, and making complex topics super engaging.
Right now, I am just starting out on this journey, which means my current budget is quite tight. I want to be completely upfront about that.

Editing 10–20 minute documentary/essay-style videos.
Crafting clean, narrative-driven map animations and data visualizations (Premiere Pro / After Effects).
Sourcing and blending archival footage, photos, and sound design to keep retention high.
Working closely together based on my scripts and voiceovers.
What I’m Looking For:
Someone with a portfolio/showreel of documentary or YouTube essay-style edits.
Strong skills in Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.
An understanding of visual pacing, sound design, and storytelling.
Someone who is patient, collaborative, and excited to grow together from day one!

If this sounds like a fun journey you’d like to be a part of, please drop a comment or DM me with:

  1. Your portfolio/showreel.
  2. Your starting rate per video (keeping in mind it's an indie, starting channel with growth potential).
  3. Your go-to editing tools.

Looking for a short form editor (crime niche)

Looking for a serious short-form video editor to help with my crime storytelling content. I’m already monetized on TikTok and Facebook and need someone who wants to grow with the accounts long term.

I need a lot of videos edited consistently, so reliability and experience are important. Pay will be cheap to start while we build, but I believe you get rewarded for what you put into the content. As the videos take off and revenue grows, pay grows with it.

Looking for someone who understands fast-paced short-form storytelling and is serious about making real money in this industry.
DM me with examples of your work and let’s get to work. @art0fwar on TikTok is the style I’m looking for

Excited looking to build together long term!

Hi! I’m entering in to big journey and I have a LOT of content I’ll be producing to edit. It’s all very exciting and I’m shooting for the moon so even if I miss I might land in the stars, I’m currently a very thinly stretched one woman team. If I were to explain it all it’d be way too long a reddit post but I have an intro video on YouTube https://youtu.be/kn-jiryBcI0?is=3M\_DBjzg1IXqrlnC & shorter ones on Tik Tok https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZPLRgGWko/ & an Instagram post explaining my whole thing https://www.instagram.com/p/DdBgJiAGxVH/?stkn=NHVtamt6bDJ4dWE3!

I’m a woman of many words, a yapper if you will.

I am currently putting out a lot of content each week running two live shows that are intended to be content for the YouTube 3 channels and short form platforms plus I’ve now added a Third live show an editing stream to keep up to with the workload but still I know I’ll be streaming at a pace faster than I’ll ever have time to edit as one person so I’m behind myself. https://twitch.tv/abenadove if you’d like to see my last unedited stream going live today for my first editing stream.

I am looking for someone who wants to enter into the basement floor with me fuck the ground floor were trying to get to that point hahah we’re in the basement right now.

Have a look at the content and let me know what you think having a clipper and someone to editing shorter long form videos down from my steams would be excellent to start (im still going to be editing it’s a just a huge workload cause im doing so many other roles) - I am a d1 yapper and I’m producing the stream ahead so it isn’t a big sprawling mess to edit through it is a high volume of usable content that’s why I’m overwhelmed it’s not that it’s hard to find content it’s that there’s so much! So let me know if you’d like to have a conversation about working together ☺️

Hiring a video editor in Jaipur for cinematic travel documentaries (YouTube + Reels + Carousels)

Hi everyone,

I run a cinematic travel documentary channel on YouTube and Instagram. The focus is offbeat India: lesser-known villages, ancient temples, Himalayan geography and Hindu culture, told with Hindi narration, drone shots and a slow, story-first style.

I'm looking for a video editor to join me on an ongoing basis. The editor must be based in Jaipur. I can arrange an office space where we can work from, so you don't need your own setup to get started.

What you'd be editing

  • 1 long-form documentary per month (about 20 min)
  • 3 mid-form videos per month (5–10 min)
  • Reels and Shorts, around 20 per month

What I'm looking for

  • Strong cinematic editing: pacing, sound design, color grading
  • Comfort with Hindi narration-led storytelling
  • Experience with both long-form YouTube and vertical short-form (hook-first edits)
  • Preferred: someone who can also handle marketing for the channel, such as YouTube SEO, thumbnails and titles, Instagram growth and promotion
  • Basic thumbnail and subtitle skills are a plus
  • Reliable with deadlines. I'll share raw footage within a few days of each shoot, and I expect consistent turnaround.
  • Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or Final Cut is fine, whichever you're best at

About the channel
Instagram reach is strong, with 300K+ views in the last 30 days, and I'm now building the YouTube side. If you want to help grow a channel and not just deliver files, you'll fit well.

Compensation: Can discuss for a fixed compensation per month. I can pay well.
Type: long-term

To apply: DM me or comment with your portfolio or showreel (YouTube or Drive link) and a line about your experience with travel or documentary edits. If you've done marketing or growth work for a channel or brand, mention that too. A paid test edit on a short clip is fine for shortlisted people.
