Full job description

I produce ~15-minute documentaries for YouTube using clips gathered from the internet. The style is cinematicwith a strong touch of humor (good pacing, subtle comedic timing, and polished storytelling). Here is a link to one of my completed videos for reference:

Right now I’m working on a new video about the Weeknd, and I’ve completed a basic edit of the video with narration + music + clips. However, my editing skills aren’t great, so I’m looking for a professional editor to elevate this video into something that feels high-end and intentional.

What I need help with now (Phase 1: Intro)

  • Improve the edit of an existing 60-second clip
  • Enhance pacing, sound design, and overall “cinematic” feel
  • Add subtle animations / motion graphics if/where it makes sense
  • No color grading needed

Software / Workflow (important)

I work in DaVinci Resolve. You will need to be able to edit in Resolve and return a Resolve project / timeline (or deliverables that drop in cleanly)

Ongoing work

If you crush this test clip, I’ll likely hire you to help with the rest of the 15-minute video and possibly future projects.

Requirements

  • Strong English comprehension (must clearly understand intent and tone)
  • Experience editing YouTube documentaries or cinematic content
  • Strong sense of story + pacing
  • Ability to match cinematic + humorous tone

To apply, please include:

  • Any examples of similar work (cinematic doc / YouTube doc / storytelling edits)
  • A quick note on your DaVinci Resolve experience (or your proposed cross-software workflow)

Thank you for your time and I look forward to working with you!
