Cinematic Video Editor Wanted – Teasers for Indie Rock Album Rollout
Budget: $200–400 AUD per teaser pair
Long-term / Ongoing

Hi, I’m Jean-Noël from Lard Bedaine — a post-punk/art rock band born out of Montreal’s late-80s alternative scene. We’re preparing to launch a long-overdue archival album and are looking for a cinematic-minded video editor to help bring our teaser campaign to life.

What we're creating:
Short-form teaser trailers (30 seconds + 15s cutdowns) for social platforms — Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, YouTube Shorts.
Think stylized mini-film trailers, not standard band promos. Each one loops a musical motif and builds a mood or micro-narrative — a blend of nostalgia, atmosphere, and cinematic punch.

We’ll provide:
A detailed creative brief (PDF format) for each teaser

Moodboard references

Audio loop + narrative cues

Visual assets via Dropbox: stills, digitized VHS, archival textures

Support and feedback at every step

We’re looking for:
One 30-sec teaser + 15-sec variation to start

Proper formatting for all major platforms

A strong sense of rhythm, mood, and montage

Experience working with stills, found footage, layered textures

Ability to use Kling to animate band photos (subtle facial motion, dynamic zooms, eye movement, etc.)

Bonus if you can incorporate public domain film snippets or glitch/noir overlays

Visual style/influences:
Cinematic pacing and tension

Urban grit (80s/90s Montreal, NYC)

Pop-art & Warhol/Factory aesthetics

Ken Burns-style motion, ghosting, analog transitions

Early MTV, zine culture, underground cinema textures

This is part of a larger rollout (10+ teasers over several months). If we click creatively, we’d love to build a consistent visual language with you across the project.

If this sounds like your kind of gig, send over a few relevant samples or reels — especially those that show your use of Kling or creative motion from still images.

Looking forward to collaborating —
Jean-Noël
