Star Wars-Style Short Film Edit
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I’ve already shot the footage for a five-minute Star Wars-inspired short and now need a sharp editor who can turn the raw takes into a finished piece that feels cinematic.
Scope of work
• Assemble the narrative in Premiere Pro (or your preferred NLE) and deliver a clean, well-paced 5:00 cut.
• Add three to four straightforward VFX shots in After Effects: the key moment is a spaceship touching down, shown at night with practical light bloom matched to the glow of the engines.
• Grade the entire film so the landing sequence seamlessly blends into a consistent nighttime palette.
• Layer in ambient sci-fi sound effects that sell the landing (no big explosions—think rumble, hydraulic hiss, distant machinery) and weave an original or royalty-free score underneath.
• Hand off the final video in 4K H.264 plus a second export with split dialogue, SFX, and music stems for future tweaks.
Acceptance
I’ll sign off once the VFX shots look integrated (no harsh edges or mismatched grain), the audio bed feels balanced at broadcast-safe levels, and the runtime sits at or under five minutes without black frames or pops.
If you can hit those notes, send a link to a previous sci-fi short or VFX reel and let’s get rolling.
