I run a lifestyle YouTube channel and I'm looking for more than just an editor — I want a great long-term teammate to grow with my channel.
Please reach out only if you meet every requirement below: Have EXTREME attention to detail (e.g., no typos in text overlays) Be diligent with following detailed written directions (I provide full briefs per video) Responsive to messages and proactive with communication Use Final Cut Pro (I may occasionally send an XML of a rough cut) Comfortable editing both sit-down/informational videos and vlog-style footage — and blending the two Able to bring energy to talking-head segments through b-roll, text overlays, transitions, sound effects, and creative cropping/zooming so they never feel static or boring Fluent in English Have a good sense of humor — up to date with memes, GIFs, and trending formats Passionate, creative, and adaptable to evolving content styles
In your response, please include:
Your experience editing with Final Cut Pro 1–2 sample videos you've edited that most closely resemble my style Based on my recent videos, 2 specific editing adjustments or enhancements you would make to level up my content Your location and timezone Your typical turnaround time for a fully polished video (10–15 minutes) Your rate for a completed 10–15 minute video from raw footage to final delivery
Finally — do you offer a sample edit? Before committing to a full project, I'd love for you to take a short clip of raw footage and provide a free 2-minute sample so we can confirm our compatibility before moving forward.
