Social Media Video Strategist for Singer-Songwriter
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
Job Description:
Hi! My name is Mary, and I'm a singer-songwriter currently building my brand and preparing to release my music. My Instagram handle is @marybilyon — although I don’t have many posts yet, that’s where my journey is beginning. I'm looking for a creative and experienced video editor + content strategist to help grow my music presence on Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts through engaging, high-quality short-form video content.
Each song I release has its own genre and emotional theme — so I need someone who can collaborate with me before the release to plan what type of content would work best for that song and execute a professional edit that reflects the mood, message, and style.
This is a long-term position if I find the right fit.
---
What You’ll Be Doing:
Content Strategy & Planning:
Collaborate with me before each release.
Brainstorm and plan out short-form video content that fits the song's vibe.
Help define a consistent visual and emotional brand through my content.
Focus on maximum reach and engagement on each platform (TikTok, IG, YouTube). This is important for me as I am looking for videos that are likely to have views.
Two Types of Video Tasks (Both Require Professional Editing):
1. Stock-Based Edits
– Use clips from the internet and edit them together to fit the mood of my song.
– Apply color grading, effects, transitions, and professional polish.
2. Raw Footage Edits (of Me)
– I’ll send you videos of myself (lip-syncing, etc.), and you’ll turn them into short, creative clips.
– Again, these should include clean edits, engaging pacing, effects, and professional color grading.
– Make it feel like something people would stop and watch on TikTok or Reels.
For example, one of my current songs requires a short animated clip (similar to the vibe of the song "Producer Man" by Lyn Lapid) — not the exact same style, but something creatively inspired by that idea to match my own theme. So it would be prefered if you know how to make animations for some of my short videos (around 25 seconds).
I’d love someone who can handle ideas like that.

What I’m Looking For:
●Proven experience editing short-form, vertical videos (Reels, Shorts, TikTok).
●Strong eye for storytelling, pacing, aesthetics, and platform trends.
●Skilled in color grading, visual effects, captions, transitions, and motion design.
●Able to take my music and lyrics and propose creative directions.
●Knows English and easy to communicate with.
●Able to deliver consistently and meet deadlines.
●Must send samples of previous short-form video work, ideally for artists or similar content creators.
---
Extras (Bonus Skills):
○ Experience with music branding, animation, or lyric-style content.
○ Understanding of how to grow music pages on social media organically.
---
Payment:
Paid $2 per video.
Each video will be approximately 25 seconds long. And I will need multiple videos per week, every week. So it will be long-term.
---
To Apply:
Please include:
1. A link to your portfolio or video samples.
2. A short description of your experience with music or artist content.
3. Optional: Any creative idea you might have.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
