Dynamic YouTube Shorts Editing
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I’m producing a run of bite-sized YouTube Shorts and will supply clean voice-over or dialogue tracks for each one. Your task is to cut the visuals so they feel as tight and energetic as the three references below, while still leaving room for your own creative flair.

What matters most is that the pacing stays quick, the transitions snap, and the captions move with the beat. I prefer animated, dynamic text rather than anything static or minimal, and I’d like to see animated icons or simple illustrations pop in to highlight key words or moments. Feel free to draw on stock assets, but aim for a cohesive visual language that echoes the reference clips.
Deliverables & acceptance:
• One vertical 9:16 video per audio file (≤60 s, 1080×1920, 30–60 fps, .mp4)
• Hard-coded animated captions that are easy to read on mobile
• Snappy transitions and motion graphics that mirror the reference energy
• Animated icons/illustrations reinforcing key points
• Source project file (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or After Effects—your choice)
If you can turn around a first draft within a couple of days after receiving the audio, that’s ideal. Let me know your preferred software and any previous Shorts you’ve cut that showcase a similar style.
