Uncut raw images in video format not in order [login to view URL] Video Editor / Motion Graphics — Ongoing Social Storytelling Project Looking for a fast, technically capable video editor for an ongoing series of short-form social videos. I already have the creative direction, stories, rough CapCut concepts, photographs, archival material, video and music references. I am not looking for someone to develop a brand strategy or reinvent the concept. I need someone who can execute detailed creative direction extremely well and quickly. Typical work: * 1–3 minute vertical social videos * CapCut rough cuts may be supplied as references * Cutting and tightening spoken narration * Archival photographs and real historical material * Photo animation / camera movement / parallax * Motion graphics and compositing * Typography and captions * Music editing and timing * Sound effects and sound design * Creative transitions * Press/newspaper treatments * Occasional humor and visual callbacks * Color correction / cleanup * Platform-ready exports Visual direction: authentic, sophisticated and story-driven. I prefer real photographs, archival footage and actual artifacts over generic AI imagery. AI tools are welcome when they improve production, cleanup, animation or create an intentional effect, but the finished work should not look like generic AI content. I will often provide very specific instructions: exact image, sequence, timing, font, movement, transition, music cue, etc. I need someone comfortable executing those instructions accurately. Creativity is welcome. If you see a better idea, suggest it. But this is primarily a hands-on editing and motion-graphics role, not an open-ended creative-director assignment. Initial project: approximately 2–3 minutes of finished vertical video. This can become ongoing work immediately. I have several videos already planned and substantial existing source material. Budget: approximately $10/hour, or propose a reasonable fixed price for the initial project. Please send: * Your 3 best relevant examples — not your entire portfolio * Software you use * Experience with CapCut, Premiere, After Effects and/or DaVinci Resolve * Your hourly rate or fixed-price bid * Availability today / this week * Approximate turnaround for a 2–3 minute finished video Important: Some source material is private/personal. Nothing supplied may be published, shared or used in a portfolio without permission. Please begin your response with the words “STORY EDITOR” so I know you read the posting.

isarHello, I see you're looking for someone who can take your existing content and turn it into engaging social videos that really tell a story. My plan is to jump right into the raw footage and archive materials you have, organize everything, and create tight, captivating edits that align with your vision. I’ve worked on similar projects before where we took disorganized content and turned it into a cohesive narrative, which not only improved viewer engagement but also helped the client boost their online presence. Keeping the edits authentic and sophisticated will resonate with your audience and maintain the integrity of the historical material you're using. To better understand what you need, can you tell me which specific elements you want to prioritize in the storytelling? Also, do you have any deadlines or specific platforms in mind for these videos?

STORY EDITOR — the brief is clear that this isn't a creative-director role, it's about executing precise direction fast and cleanly, which is exactly the kind of work where a hands-on editor either nails the exact frame/timing you specify or wastes your time, I'm built for the former. I'm comfortable working from exact instructions specific image, sequence, timing, font, movement, transition, music cue and executing it accurately rather than reinterpreting it. For archival photographs and real historical material, I handle photo animation, parallax, and camera-movement work to bring stills to life authentically rather than defaulting to generic AI look, alongside motion graphics, typography/captions, sound design, music timing, and press/newspaper-style treatments as the material calls for. I understand the source material is private nothing supplied would be shared, published, or used in a portfolio without your permission. Rate: Proposing a fixed $200 for the initial 2-3 min finished video (roughly equivalent to your ~$10/hr benchmark at this scope), open to hourly if you prefer for ongoing work. Availability: Available today/this week, can start immediately Turnaround: Approximately [3-4] for a 2-3 min finished video from receiving source material and CapCut reference 3 best relevant examples: https://www.freelancer.com/u/Ayaanriaz173 Happy to start on the initial video right away — send over the source material and CapCut reference whenever you're ready.
