Cinematic Short-Form Video Editing
Budget: ₹600 – ₹1,500 INR
I have ten vertical reels (each under 60 seconds) shot on a high-quality camera for an ongoing Instagram & YouTube Shorts series. Every clip already carries solid visuals; what I need now is a creative editor who can elevate them into a seamless cinematic experience.
Here’s the vision: colour-grade for a dramatic, film-like look, shape the lighting so subjects truly pop, lay in subtle ambient sound beds that match the mood of each scene, and sprinkle in tasteful sound effects for emphasis. Transitions should be more than simple fades—think imaginative match-cuts or effect-driven moves that feel purposeful yet smooth. Occasional on-screen text or lower-thirds will introduce episode titles or quick callouts, so clean typography is important.
I’ll supply all raw footage plus reference tracks and a rough outline for pacing. In return I expect:
• Ten fully edited 9:16 videos, export-ready for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts (1080×1920, 30 fps, high bitrate).
• Consistent cinematic grading, creative transitions, ambient background audio correctly balanced, synced SFX, and polished text overlays.
• Two rounds of revisions per video for tweaks on colour, audio mix, or titles.
Deliver the first draft of one episode within three days so we can lock the overall look; the remaining nine can follow on a mutually agreed timeline.
Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or DaVinci Resolve are all fine—use whichever you handle best, as long as the output meets the specs above. If this sounds like your craft, let’s bring these shorts to life.
