PROJECT: YouTube Video Editor — “Case Files” Faceless Video Series (Episode 1) OVERVIEW Looking for an editor to produce a 10-15 minute faceless YouTube video — a comedic/entertainment take on food safety topics, NOT a dry documentary. Think investigative format with a sarcastic, deadpan comedic voice, targeting ages 20-40. This is Episode 1 of an ongoing series — looking to establish a long-term working relationship if the first episode goes well. DELIVERABLE • One finished video, 10-15 minutes runtime • Style: fast-paced, “case file” investigative aesthetic — think redacted-document graphics, stat card overlays, split-screen comparisons, timeline graphics • Tone: cool/hip, younger-skewing, genuinely funny — deadpan sarcastic humor woven throughout, NOT a talking-head lecture or a dry monotone documentary. Real data delivered with personality and comedic timing, similar in spirit to channels like Half as Interesting or Johnny Harris but with more jokes. • Full script (including comedic VO) and shot-by-shot timing already provided (see attached outline) WHAT’S PROVIDED • Complete word-for-word script with timestamps • Full on-screen text/stat card copy (no placeholders — all copy is final) • Complete B-roll/visual shot list broken down by section • List of reusable brand assets needed (folder animation, stamps, lower-thirds, templates) REUSABLE ASSETS NEEDED (built once, used every future episode) • “Case file” folder open/close animation • “STILL LEGAL IN THE US” stamp graphic • Lower-third stat card template • Split-screen comparison template (EU/US) • Highlighter/circle-on-label effect • End-screen / subscribe template EDITING SOFTWARE Open to Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or CapCut — whichever you’re fastest and most polished in. SCOPE OF WORK • Edit raw B-roll/stock footage into final sequence per script • Build and implement all stat cards / text overlays (copy provided) • Build reusable graphic templates listed above • Basic color grading (muted/serious tone for data sections, brighter/faster for lighter sections per script notes) • Add music/sound design (open to editor’s recommendations — need a mix of tension-building and comedic/absurd cues per section) • Deliver final export in [insert resolution/format, e.g., 1080p or 4K, MP4] TIMELINE [Not on a strict deadline but want to get this video on YouTube page asap] BUDGET [Not sure how much you’d charge but ideally trying to start with a small budget and with success can continue to bring business and have a working long term relationship that pays both of us well] TO APPLY Please share: 1. 2-3 examples of similar faceless/investigative-style YouTube edits 2. Your typical turnaround time for a 10-15 min video 3. Your rate (flat per video, or per minute of finished footage) Full script, shot list, and on-screen copy will be shared upon starting the project.

Hello, I really like that this isn't meant to feel like a traditional documentary. Blending investigative storytelling with deadpan humor, fast pacing, and reusable branding is what will make the series memorable from the very first episode. Will the reusable templates remain consistent across every future release? I'll edit the 10–15 minute episode in Adobe Premiere Pro, following your timestamped script and shot list precisely. I'll create the case-file animations, stat cards, split-screen comparisons, lower thirds, stamps, and end screen, then combine them with carefully selected music, sound design, color grading, and smooth pacing so the educational content stays entertaining without losing clarity. Before completing the full episode, I'll produce a short demo using your script and assets so we can refine the comedic timing, visual style, and overall rhythm. Once you approve the direction, I'll finish the complete video, build the reusable templates, and continue making revisions until you're fully satisfied with both the episode and the assets for future productions. Please send me a message so I can share similar faceless YouTube editing samples, discuss the workflow, turnaround time, and creative approach in more detail. I'm ready to begin immediately and would love to help establish a strong visual identity for this long-term series. MD SHER-E ALI
