2 days ago9 proposalsRemoteVIDEO EDITOR — YouTube Lifestyle Channel | Long-Term Role
VIDEO EDITOR — YouTube Lifestyle Channel | Long-Term Role We're Fraser and Stefanie — an online business couple based in Lanzarote, Canary Islands, living and travelling full-time in a motorhome while running our businesses remotely. We're launching a YouTube channel documenting our lifestyle and we're looking for a skilled, reliable video editor to be part of this journey long-term. This is not a one-off gig. We're building something real, and we want someone who takes their craft seriously and wants to grow with us. What the Channel Is The content covers our life on the road — travel, destinations, working online, living with freedom and purpose. Underneath that, the channel supports two businesses: an Enagic health and wellness distributorship and an energy healing and coaching brand. The tone is authentic, aspirational, and human. Think lifestyle documentary, not polished corporate content. Real people, real moments, real life — edited with skill and intention. We shoot approximately 20–30 minutes of raw footage per finished video and publish around 4 videos per month on YouTube. Equipment You'll Be Working With Insta360 X5 — this is our primary camera. You must be fully proficient with this footage type. DJI Osmo handheld camera DJI Drone for aerial shots Audio voiceovers supplied by us and mixed into the edit Insta360 Technical Requirements — Non-Negotiable You must have hands-on experience working with Insta360 footage. Specifically: Proficient in Insta360 Studio (desktop), including the full import and reframe workflow Ability to work with .insv file format — understanding that the X5 produces a single .insv file and how to import it correctly into Studio Manual reframing — using keyframes to direct the viewer's perspective across a clip, setting pan, tilt, roll, FOV, and distortion parameters Creating dynamic camera movement through keyframe animation — smooth transitions between perspectives to create intentional, cinematic motion within the 360 sphere Applying FlowState stabilisation correctly within Studio before export Converting 360 footage to clean 16:9 flat output for YouTube Knowledge of view presets (Linear, Wide, Natural, Tiny Planet, Crystal Ball) and when to use each creatively Exporting reframed footage at the correct resolution and codec for downstream editing in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or Final Cut Pro If you've never worked with Insta360 footage before, please do not apply. What the Edit Involves Assembling footage from multiple sources (Insta360 X5, DJI Osmo, drone) into a cohesive, well-paced video Syncing and mixing audio — including voiceover supplied by us, ambient sound, and licensed music Colour grading for a warm, natural, travel-lifestyle feel — consistent across all footage sources Text overlays and lower thirds where appropriate — clean, minimal, not overdesigned Pacing that fits the content — energetic where it calls for it, calm and reflective where it doesn't Delivering in H.264, 1080p minimum, 16:9, YouTube-ready We are not looking for someone who throws every effect in the toolkit at the footage. We're looking for someone with genuine editorial judgment — who knows what to cut, what to keep, and how to tell a story. What We're Looking For Proven experience editing YouTube lifestyle, travel, or vlog content — portfolio links required Full technical proficiency with Insta360 Studio as described above Experience with DJI drone footage — colour matching aerial and ground-level footage Competent at audio work — voiceover integration, music selection and licensing awareness, ambient sound handling Works to a deadline without chasing Communicates clearly and concisely Takes feedback professionally and implements it accurately What We're Not Looking For Over-editors. People who need constant hand-holding. People who apply without reading the brief. If your portfolio is all corporate talking-head or music video content with no lifestyle YouTube work, this isn't the right fit. Project Details Ongoing, long-term role Approximately 4 videos per month Budget: $100-150 per video, depending on experience. Please include your portfolio, confirmation of Insta360 Studio experience, and your preferred rate per finished video minute or monthly retainer We take our work seriously. We expect the same.

3 days ago24 proposalsRemoteCinematic Reels Creator Needed (AI + Motion Graphics)
Creative Video Editor Needed for Independent TV Show Promo Campaign I'm looking for a highly creative video editor and motion designer to help create a series of cinematic social media reels for an independent TV show project. The project currently has a professionally filmed sample episode and is in development. It tells a fun, romantic, dream-like story with a strong cinematic look and high production value. I want to create around 5–6 short reels (approximately 10–30 seconds each) that build curiosity and excitement without revealing too much of the story. The goal is to create hype, spark interest, and establish a unique visual identity for the project. I'm not looking for standard Instagram edits. I want each reel to feel original, artistic, and memorable. Ideally, you'll have experience with: * Cinematic editing * Motion graphics * Creative typography * High-end transitions * Sound design * Visual effects * AI-assisted editing tools (where they genuinely enhance the final result) * Creative animation and graphic design This is currently an independent project with strong long-term potential. While we're working within a modest budget at this stage, we're looking for someone who is excited by the opportunity to be part of a promising creative project, contribute their ideas, and build an impressive portfolio piece. If the collaboration goes well, there is also the potential for ongoing work as the project develops. I'm open to fresh ideas and would love someone who can bring their own creative vision. (Inspo: film trailers, teaser campaigns, Netflix/A24-style promos, or cinematic social media content). Please send examples of your best work, especially anything involving film promotion, motion graphics, AI-enhanced editing, or visually striking social media content. I'm looking for someone who wants to create something genuinely unique rather than just another social media reel. Looking forward to meet you !

12 days ago16 proposalsRemoteI have written a poem, I want videos played throughout.
I have just this evening written a poem, I still need to revise it slightly, but I would ideally love someone who could compile a 3:29 video with background music 'Sand Drawing - Judah Earl'. I have read it out loud with this song playing quietly in the background, I am no video editor, but with weeks of planning and software and time - which I do not have - I may be able to pull something off. Alas, I require the help of a professional. I have worked out roughly, each video needs to be 3-5 seconds long. I don't know whether it's easier to compile them all at 5 seconds and then shorten the clip to match the words? I have details below the scenes I would love to have based on the chronological order of the poem. The one caveat, is ideally I would love to make all the clips my own, using me, my friends and family. However, that will take much longer. Therefore, I thought, if I can pay someone to get the whole video created, with the text and timing done to a tee, then I could ideally work with you again to revise some if not all of the video clips and swap them out with my own. How does that sound? I don't know the price, might have to be an hourly basis. It would also be lovely if you have your own video footage, to make it personable, otherwise stock footage is fine. As I say, with potential revisions done later. Video Scene Order: 1- A man sat quietly on a bench in the background, looking somewhat sad, with hustle and bustle, crowds of people in the foreground passing by as he looks around. 2- A man or woman praying in a church, chapel, then looking out the stained glass window at the end. 3 - two friends hugging and talking 4 - A Mother and Father dancing or grandparents 5 - A man crying looking to the skies, cloudy grey skies, close up of the eyes, filled with sadness - this could be a couple of videos 6 - Sky scenes, clouds, rain, sunsets in the sky, birds flying, a few montage scenes 5-8 seconds 7 - Flying birds, like a murmuration of birds would be wonderful 8 - Crying person with great emotion, letting it all out, saying goodbye perhaps 9 - someone skimming with a stone, the stone disappears - farewell. another drop in the ocean so to speak. 10 - Traveller, explorer, filmed from behind, with a rugged backpack, climbing a hill, mountain, coast path, adventure themed, moving on, going forth with great strength. 11 - Young couple kissing, intimate, young love 12 - Older couple embracing, long lasting love 13 - Seasons Montage - Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter. - beautiful. 14 - Clocking spinning, turning, large railway clock, maybe a time lapse of people at times quare station flying by - hinting time flying by. 15 - Someone thinking, deep in thought, pondering questions, maybe sat somewhere quiet. 16 - Something to portray gladness and sadness - good times and bad times, laughter and difficult times. 17 - Workout video, a man or woman pushing through the pain, close up shot in their eyes lifting heavy weight or at the gym, showing power, strength and resilience. 18 - Heartbreak, someone alone by a tree, in a park, relationship ended, sad tears, something to show the world falling around them, maybe leaves falling from a tree as a secondary video. 19 - Clear, calm seas, a beautiful shot of calm waves and maybe a sunset or a whale breaching. 20 - Trees blowing in the wind, shot looking up through the trees. 21 - Moonlight, a breeze at night, a night time scene, maybe the night sky and a shooting star afterwards. 22 - Sunrise, the most beautiful sunrise shot, maybe even with someone in it, looking at the sun as it rises. 23 - A man - me eventually - sat in a meadow, a lovely field, an old English Oak Tree, a wooden field gate, something such as this, looking into the sunset, the shot filmed from behind, contemplating life and lost in thought. End Scene. Thanks p.s. I don't have bags of money, but this is so special to me, I want it to be the first video on my new Instagram account, dedicated to my film making and poetry, reigniting my old self.
