Short‑Form Video Editor for UGC‑Style Service Ads

Create 30–60s vertical testimonial‑style videos for local trade businesses (starting with roofers). Overview: I’m testing a new service for local SMEs in the trades: turning 4–5‑star customer reviews into short, cinematic videos for websites and social media. I need a low‑cost video editor to turn my detailed prompts and reference files into visually strong, UGC‑style vertical videos. What you will create: 45–60s vertical 9:16 videos (TikTok/Reels/Shorts). Based on time‑coded prompts I provide (e.g. 00:00–00:05 before shot, 00:05–00:20 arrival, 00:20–00:40 transformation, 00:40–00:60 CTA). “Show, don’t tell” service fulfilment: before/after, close‑ups of tools, hands, materials, process shots, movement. On‑screen text overlays for key ideas and CTA (e.g. “TURNED UP & COMPLETED”, “5 STARS”, “REPLY ‘ROOF’ FOR FREE QUOTE”). Simple sound design: background music and adding supplied or AI voiceover. What I will provide: A written prompt for each video, including structure, scenes, transitions and CTA. The review text (voiceover + optional on‑screen text). The business website for logo/brand reference. A Trade_Video_Reference_Library sample video file (style and pacing). A Video Production Quality Control Checklist (clear pass/fail criteria). Knowledge‑base/reference files where needed. Your responsibilities: Use stock, AI clips or supplied visuals to match each prompt as closely as possible. Follow the QC checklist, including clear before/after contrast and strong visual storytelling. Add basic motion graphics when requested (e.g. stars, impact dust, CTA frame). Deliver MP4 optimised for Reels/TikTok/Shorts, plus project files if possible. Style & quality: UGC‑style authenticity: slightly imperfect, gritty, real‑world feel suited to tradespeople. Still needs to look intentional and clear: clean framing, readable text, logical flow. Strong emphasis on: Before/after transformation. Hands, tools, textures, surfaces. Movement, time‑lapse, transitions. A strong final CTA frame. Initial deliverables (pilot): 3–5 finished 45–60s vertical videos as a test batch. Each one must follow its specific prompt and pass the QC checklist. If this goes well, there will be ongoing batches. Budget / pricing: Low cost is paramount – this is a concept validation phase. Please give your price per 45–60s video and your price for an initial batch of 3–5 videos. Ideal candidate: Short‑form video editor or UGC ads editor with examples of Reels/TikTok/Shorts, product/service ads, or testimonial‑style videos. Comfortable working from prompts, reference files and checklists. Fast, reliable, good communication, and able to keep costs low. Nice to have: experience with trades, home services, or performance‑focused social ads. Please include in your proposal: 3–5 examples of vertical short‑form videos you’ve edited. Tools you use (CapCut, Premiere, Final Cut, mobile, AI, etc.). Typical turnaround time per video. Your per‑video rate for ongoing batches (5–10 at a time).

VFX/CGI/3D TRANSFORMATION OF SHORT VIDEO CLIPS

Transformation of old cars, replacement of number plates, updating old mobile phone, replacing wall curtains, and erasing round tax discs from windscreens are required across short video clips. These tasks involve VFX/CGI/3D compositing techniques to achieve seamless, photorealistic results that blend naturally into the original footage. The goal is to blend all elements with artistic and technical precision so the final result looks naturally captured in camera, without any visible signs of manipulation. This project requires frame by frame compositing with expert precision to ensure the final visuals appear natural, smooth, and indistinguishable from the original shots. Technical Requirements: • Work must preserve original picture quality, RGB, grading, motion, pacing, and cinemascope frame size • Output must remain in the same 4K DPX frame format as the original source with identical frame numbering as the originals. • Deliverables must include: o 4K DPX frames with correct frame numbering same as original source o 24fps 4K UHD video clip o 24fps 2K HD video clip o 24fps MP4 clip • VFX must be error free: no jerks, juddering, floating, or flickering. Playback must be seamless on large cinema screens. Quality Expectations: • Seamless integration with original footage from multiple camera angles. • Strict adherence to frame numbering for compatibility with master folders. • Preservation of original RGB values, frame speed (24fps), and cinemascope dimensions. • Final outputs must be professional, cinematic, and ready for big screen projection. The frame numbers on your final work must be the same as they appear on the original frames in our folders, otherwise we will not be able to mix your work in the sequence. This is a straightforward project for confident VFX/CGI/3D professionals. Successful completion will lead to long term regular work. Consultation and support will be available throughout the project. Freelancers may submit MP4 previews for approval before delivering full folders. Full instructions with marked reference images are provided in the attached PDF which you need to follow to complete this project. If you have any questions, please send me a message.
