Short Film Reels Snippet Edit
Budget: $30 – $250 CAD
I have a completed short film and now want to pull six standout moments, each running between 30 seconds and one minute, to repurpose as Instagram Reels. The core movie is already fully edited, so the job is less about re-cutting and more about identifying the most engaging snippets, trimming them cleanly, and layering on on-screen quotes taken directly from the dialogue.
Here’s what I need from you:
• Select six high-impact segments that feel self-contained and hook viewers quickly.
• Format each for Reels (vertical 9:16, 1080×1920).
• Add burned-in subtitles that highlight the chosen lines of dialogue—these quotes should function as the subtext and draw the eye even without sound.
• Ensure audio levels are even and that any cut points feel natural; no flashy effects required, just smooth in-and-out.
• Deliver the six finished MP4 files plus the editable project files (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or DaVinci Resolve—whichever you prefer) so I can make tweaks later if needed.
Here is the first clip we did from the film:

If you love storytelling through tight, social-first edits and have a sharp eye for emotional beats, you’ll have fun on this one. Let me know which NLE you work in and share a reel-style sample that shows crisp caption work.
