Video Editor for 'Mind Explained' Series

Job ID: 39898354

Budget: $10 – $30 USD

Job Title

Full-Production Video Editor for “Mind Explained” (Kinetic Typography + Light Visuals)



Project Overview

I’m producing a YouTube series, a calm, visually refined channel that explores how the modern mind works—why we believe what we believe, how persuasion shapes us, and how to build mental resilience.

Each episode is fully scripted and ready for production. I’m looking for a skilled video editor who can take the script and produce a complete video—handling voiceover, visuals, motion design, music, pacing, and export.

The tone is thoughtful, cinematic, and minimalist. The visuals should complement the narration, not overwhelm it.



Scope of Work
• Produce one full-length YouTube episode (8–12 minutes) from provided script
• Generate AI voiceover using 11Labs “Adam” voice (mandatory; no substitutions)
• Submit a 30-second voice and pacing sample for approval before full production
• Add kinetic typography to highlight key phrases and pacing
• Incorporate light symbolic visuals or minimalist motion graphics (limited, intentional stock footage only when needed for clarity)
• Choose and mix non-copyrighted background music and subtle sound design to match tone
• Follow pacing and rhythm notes provided with the script (typically 3–4 second holds, smooth transitions)
• Deliver final 4K export, optimized for YouTube
• Provide editable project files (Premiere Pro, After Effects, or equivalent) upon completion



Deliverables
• 1 Full-length video (8–12 minutes)
• 3 Short clips (≤60 seconds each, vertical format, same tone and branding)
• 2 Rounds of revisions included



What I’ll Provide
• Finalized, TTS-optimized script (≈1,400 words)
• Detailed pacing and tone notes
• Brand direction and example visuals for reference



Creative Direction
• Visual Style: Kinetic typography with minimalist motion graphics
• Tone: Calm, intelligent, reflective, slightly cinematic
• Color Palette: Cool neutrals with one accent tone per episode
• Stock Footage: Light, purposeful, never filler
• Inspirations: “Vox Borders,” “Nerdwriter,” and “Kurzgesagt” (for pacing and tone, not illustration style)



Requirements
• Experience producing explainer or educational videos using motion graphics and text animation
• Ability to create high-quality 11Labs Adam voiceovers
• Strong sense of timing, rhythm, and narrative flow
• Access to professional music, sound, and stock libraries
• Fluent English comprehension
• Consistent, dependable communication and adherence to deadlines



Budget

$20 per episode (includes voiceover, visuals, music, Shorts, and revisions). Ongoing work for the right fit.



To Apply

1. One or two sample videos that show your kinetic typography or narrative editing skills
2. Confirmation that you can produce 11Labs Adam voiceovers
3. Your average turnaround time for a 10-minute video
