About the Role

I’m looking for a creative and reliable video editor to help edit short-form talking-head content for Instagram Reels and TikTok.

I will provide the raw footage and general direction. Your job will be to turn it into clean, engaging, polished short-form videos that feel natural and keep viewers watching.

This is a small role to begin with (approximately 1–2 hours per week), but there is potential for the workload and hours to increase over time.

What You’ll Do
Edit short-form talking-head videos for TikTok and Instagram Reels
Remove pauses, mistakes, and unnecessary sections to improve pacing
Add clean, well-timed captions/subtitles
Add subtle zooms, cuts, B-roll, images, or other visual elements where appropriate
Add simple sound effects or background music when needed
Create strong pacing while keeping the content natural and authentic
Follow an established editing style once we develop one together
Deliver videos consistently and on time
What I’m Looking For
Experience editing TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, or similar short-form content
Strong understanding of pacing, hooks, retention, and social-media editing
Clean editing style — not overly flashy or distracting
Good English comprehension, since you’ll need to understand the content and know where to make cuts
Attention to detail
Reliable communication
Comfortable receiving feedback and making occasional revisions
To Apply

Please send:

A short introduction about yourself
Examples of talking-head / personal-brand videos you have edited
The editing software you use
Your hourly rate
Your typical turnaround time for a 30–90 second video

Important: Please include relevant short-form talking-head editing samples. I’m specifically looking for someone who understands personal-brand/social-media content rather than only long-form or cinematic video editing.
