I'm looking for a sharp, creative short-form video editor who can take long-form podcast style content (30–40 minutes) and turn it into multiple high-performing clips for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
You'll have access to all raw footage and your job is to:
• Find the best moments
• Pull strong hooks
• Edit in a way that stops scrolls
• Create captions for every clip
• Deliver content ready to post
This is ongoing work, not a one-off project.
What You'll Be Doing
• Turning each 30–40 minute video into 10–30 short clips
• Identifying viral moments, hooks, and sound bites
• Editing vertical videos (9:16) for TikTok / Reels / Shorts
• Adding subtitles/captions where needed
• Creating engaging written captions for each video
• Making multiple versions of the same clip (different hooks / pacing / captions)
• Organising files clearly and delivering on time
You're a Good Fit If You:
• Understand short-form attention economics
• Know how to pull hooks in the first 1–2 seconds
• Have strong editing skills (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, CapCut, etc.)
• Have an eye for pacing, storytelling, and emotion
• Can write clean, punchy captions
• Think like a content creator, not just an editor
• Are proactive with ideas (not waiting for instructions every time)
• Can handle ongoing volume
Bonus points if you already understand TikTok / Reels trends and what makes content pop.
Deliverables Per Long Video
• 10–30 short clips
• Each clip exported in vertical format
• Captions included for every video
• Optional: different hook versions of top clips
