Same-Day Podcast Video Edit
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I have a recently recorded remote podcast interview that needs to be turned into a polished, platform-ready video within the next 24 hours. The raw file contains a few participant windows, background noise, and the usual pauses that happen during live conversations. Please reshape it into a seamless viewing experience and then carve out a handful of share-worthy clips.
Here’s what the finished work should include:
• A tight, engaging main cut: trim dead air, remove awkward pauses, and keep the flow moving.
• Dynamic framing: crop or zoom so the active speaker fills the frame and minimises any extra participant boxes that distract from the conversation.
• Smooth switches between speakers with clean cuts or subtle transitions—no jumpy edits.
• Subtle colour and sharpness tweaks so the final looks crisp on both LinkedIn and YouTube.
• Balanced, noise-reduced audio—my voice in particular needs to sit forward in the mix.
• Simple intro/outro cards or text bumpers (I’ll supply wording or logo).
• Clean, well-timed subtitles/captions and a separate SRT file.
• Export the full interview in 1080p MP4 plus 2–3 punchy highlight clips (30–60 sec each) ready for reels or shorts.
I’m fine with you working in Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve, or another pro editor as long as the results meet the specs above. Please share a brief note on how you’ll meet the one-day turnaround, any similar podcast edits you’ve done, and your preferred file-handoff method so we can get started right away.
The raw interview is approximately 45-50 minutes. My budget is around 15-25$, so please apply only if this works for you.
Before editing the full video, I’d like you to create a short 30–60 second sample edit from the raw file so I can confirm the style, framing, audio cleanup, and captions.
If the sample looks good, we can move ahead with the full edit immediately.
