Cinematic Social Media Clip
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I’m putting together a short-form video destined for Instagram Reels/TikTok and I want it to feel more like a movie trailer than a quick cut-up. I won’t be supplying any raw material, so part of the brief is for you to source royalty-free or licensed stock footage that perfectly matches the narrative we lock in together.
The end product should be smooth and cinematic—think gentle speed-ramps, thoughtful pacing, rich colour grading and seamless audio transitions rather than flashy jump cuts. Subtle motion graphics or tasteful text overlays are welcome if they reinforce the story.
Key deliverables
• 15–60 sec finished clip in 1080 × 1920 (vertical) ready for immediate upload
• Separate 1:1 or 16:9 export if aspect-ratio flexibility is easy for you
• Project file (Premiere Pro, Final Cut or DaVinci Resolve—whichever you build in) along with links or licences for every stock asset and music track used
I’ll provide the core message, copy and any brand guidelines; you bring the footage, music, creative flow and that polished, cinematic touch. Let me know your preferred editing platform, stock libraries you trust, and how soon you can turn the first draft.
