Custom Precision Video Editor
Budget: ₹12,500 – ₹37,500 INR
I’m building a streamlined video-editing tool that focuses on absolute frame accuracy without the bloat of a full production suite. The core functions I need engineered are:
• Precise cutting and trimming that lets users snap to individual frames and ripple-delete in real time.
• Robust, non-destructive color correction (primary and secondary grading) with scopes and LUT support.
• A clean library of effects and transitions that can be dragged straight onto clips, with key-frame control.
I’m comfortable if you leverage proven back-end engines such as FFmpeg, GStreamer or a similar library, provided the front-end remains intuitive and responsive on both Windows and macOS. Cross-platform frameworks like Electron, Qt or Flutter are perfectly acceptable—as long as launch time stays snappy and GPU acceleration is utilised where available.
Deliverables
1. Fully-compiled installer (Win & macOS) plus source code.
2. Brief user guide or onboarding video.
3. Build instructions so updates can be compiled in-house.
Acceptance criteria
• Lossless export matches source frame rate and resolution.
• Color-grading adjustments render in real time on a mid-tier GPU.
• Standard transitions (dissolve, slide, wipe) preview at >24 fps on 1080p footage.
If you’ve previously coded lightweight NLEs or plug-ins, share a demo repo or executable so I can feel the playback responsiveness. Looking forward to collaborating on a tool that keeps editors in the zone instead of lost in menus.
