Cinematic YouTube Video Editor Needed
Budget: ₹1,500 – ₹12,500 INR
I run a small but growing lifestyle channel and I’m looking for a reliable editor who can give each episode a calm, cinematic touch. On average, the raw footage lands between 8-15 minutes; the finished cut usually sits around the 8-10-minute mark once the fluff is trimmed.
Here’s what I need each time:
• Clean cut-downs of the raw material so the story flows naturally.
• Smooth, tasteful transitions that feel organic rather than flashy.
• Subtle background music mixed under the dialogue (I’ll provide tracks or point you to royalty-free libraries).
• Minimal text overlays for chapter headings, call-to-action prompts, and the occasional on-screen note.
• Color grading and light audio balancing to maintain that relaxed, cinematic atmosphere.
I shoot in 4K, 24 fps on a Sony mirrorless; files are shared via Google Drive. Final cut pro is my current tool of choice, but I’m fine with premier pro or DaVinci Resolve as long as the final export is YouTube-ready (4K and 1080p versions).
Turnaround: one video per week, with room to scale if we’re both happy. I’ll provide editing notes and a reference cut for the first project so you can match pacing and mood.
Send over:
• A link to at least two lifestyle or similarly paced edits you’ve done.
• A quick note on your typical turnaround window and preferred software.
Looking forward to finding a long-term collaborator who can make my footage shine while keeping the vibe relaxed and cinematic.
