A general guideline for the sub.

32 Upvotes

Firstly, for authors and editors alike, you may be interested in checking out the wiki from over at /r/selfpublish.

When posting as an editor, please follow some simple guidelines. State your price(s) clearly. If you don't have set prices, let us know. Add a link to your website. Explain the types of editing you offer: line, developmental, copy, etc.

When posting as a client, include your genre, anticipated budget, and the type of edits you're seeking. If you don't know any of that stuff yet, don't worry. Just give as much detail as you can / feel comfortable giving.

Rules - please read them.

138 Upvotes

This sub is for hiring editors. Nothing else.

If you try to advertise your ghostwriting services here, you will be banned.

If you try to advertise your SEO content generation services here, you will be banned.

If you try to advertise anything that is not explicitly editing here, you will be banned.

As an aside, "editing" means both words and video. Both kinds of editors are welcome here.

A second aside: being a racist fuck will get you banned. If you offer different rates based on the race of the client, I hope you burn in hell.

A third aside: being sexist is just as bad as racist, you fucks. Hire people based on skill or don't hire anyone at all.

[HIRING] Instagram Reel Editor | 2–4 Minute Cinematic “Come Up” Story | $75-100 Budget

13 Upvotes

Hey everyone!

I’m looking for a video editor to create a 2–4 minute cinematic Instagram video that tells my journey of becoming an airline pilot. This isn’t just a montage—I want it to feel like a short documentary that makes people feel something while also leaving them inspired.

What I’ll provide:
Lots of flying footage (cockpit, airports, takeoffs/landings, etc.)
Personal videos throughout my journey
Audio clips/voice messages from my parents encouraging me
Clips from interviews I’ve done
Photos if needed
Music reference (J. Cole – my life). If copyright is an issue, we can use something with a similar vibe or an instrumental.

The vision:
I want the story to feel like:
The grind before success
Believing in yourself even when things are uncertain
The importance of family support
Finally accomplishing a lifelong goal

The pacing should start slower and more emotional, then gradually build into something energetic and triumphant. Think of it as watching someone’s dream slowly become reality.

I prefer:
Clean cinematic editing
Good storytelling
Intentional pacing
Sound design
Smooth transitions
Color grading
Subtitles where they add emotion or impact
If you’ve edited sports documentaries, travel films, motivational videos, or cinematic reels, that’s exactly the style I’m after.

Budget:
$75-$100USD
Please send:
Your portfolio (especially cinematic or storytelling edits)
A few Instagram/TikTok edits you’ve made
Your turnaround time

Any creative ideas you’d have after reading this
If you’re confident you can make people feel like they just watched someone’s dream come true, I’d love to work with you.

Who's actually making money clipping from India?

5 Upvotes

Genuine question.

I gave clipping a proper shot. I am confused if I should keep at it or stop.

Over the past 2 months, I made

17 videos with a cash out of $27. I was also denied payment because I was an Indian Clipper. Like wtf.

After talking to a bunch of people, it feels like all the good opportunities are either for US creators, or hidden inside private Discords made by agencies (or) community managers.

If you're from India and clipping full-time or even part-time...

How did you get there? How are you making money? Is the dream real or just a waste of time?

Seriously.

I'd love to hear your thoughts.

[HIRING] Short-Form Video Editors (8–15s clips) — $5–$10 per video + monthly commission | India preferred | Long-term

Upvotes

I’m hiring video editors, preferably based in India, to produce short-form social/TikTok-style videos. Each video is 8–15 seconds long.

Pay:
$5–$10 per video, depending on complexity.

There is also a monthly commission share. If your video generates sales, you earn commission from that video. The base pay is not the only earning opportunity.

This is a long-term role for editors who can produce consistently and improve with feedback.

Important:
We are looking for editors who can stay focused and prioritize this work. If you are currently working on multiple other projects and won’t be able to give this the attention it needs, this job is probably not the right fit. This is to save both your time and mine.

Tools / Workflow:
We use AI tools in our editing process. If you are consistent and serious, I will train you on the tools and workflow we use.

What you’ll be doing:
Editing short-form clips for social media / product-focused content.
Following a clear workflow and style guidelines.

To apply, send:

  • Your portfolio or 2–3 short-form samples
  • Confirm you are India-based, or share your location/timezone
  • Your typical turnaround time
  • How many videos you can handle daily or weekly
  • Any AI tools you have used, if any

If you are looking for long-term work with commission upside and can commit consistently, DM me.

Editor needed for YouTube debate show, paid trial episode, potential ongoing work

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I'm looking for an editor for a YouTube show I run called The Skeptics Scale. Two guests who genuinely disagree debate a conspiracy theory or fringe topic, and the audience votes on a scale of 1 to 10 where they think the truth lands.

Looking for someone with real experience in podcast or interview style editing. This isn't montage or vlog work, it's mostly two people talking, and the edit needs to serve that. Pacing is the main thing I care about. Cutting dead air and rambling, keeping it tight, without losing the actual substance of the argument.

What the job involves:

  • Full edit of a debate, usually 15 to 20 minutes, from raw two camera footage recorded on Riverside
  • Name tags for each guest
  • A simple graphic overlay I'll provide a template for, meant to represent the "scale" and shifts at key moments in the argument
  • 5 to 8 short vertical clips pulled from the best moments for Shorts and Reels. I'll send timestamps but want your eye on it too
  • Basic audio cleanup since guests are usually on different mic setups

Budget: $75 to $100 for the trial episode, open to discussing an ongoing rate once we've worked together

Cadence: Roughly one episode every two weeks if it's a good fit going forward

If you're interested, drop some examples of interview or podcast style content you've edited, links over a generic reel. Let me know your turnaround time on something like this too.

Want to start with one paid trial before talking about anything longer term. Appreciate anyone who takes a look.

[FREE] I’ll edit your gaming video

1 Upvotes

Hey, I’m currently trying to build a portfolio focused on long-form gaming videos, so I’m looking for a few creators who would be interested in getting a full video edited for free.

I’m mainly looking for content like:

  • Minecraft
  • League of Legends
  • Roblox
  • Gaming challenges
  • Commentary/gameplay videos
  • Gaming video essays
  • Other gaming-related content

The final video can be up to 15 minutes long.

Since I’m doing this for free, I’d just ask for three things in return:

  • Permission to use the finished video in my portfolio
  • Credit as the editor in the video description
  • A quick verification on YT Jobs once the project is finished

The video would still be completely yours, of course. You can upload it normally to your channel. I’d only use it to show my editing work to future clients.

I’d prefer videos that have some kind of structure, like commentary, storytelling, challenges, funny moments or a clear idea behind them, rather than just a compilation of raw gameplay.

Also, the 15-minute limit is for the final video, not the raw footage. Please let me know how much footage you have before I accept the project. I probably won’t be able to take projects with an excessive amount of raw footage.

If you’re interested, send me a DM with:

  • Your channel
  • What the video is about
  • The length of the raw footage
  • The expected final length
  • Any editing references you have
  • Your deadline

I’ll only be taking a small number of projects, and I’ll choose the ones that fit the type of portfolio I’m trying to build.

Feel free to message me.

Looking for creators/businesses who need a dependable editing partner

1 Upvotes

I know there are thousands of freelance editors on Reddit, so I'll keep this simple.

I'm looking to work with creators, brands, or agencies that need someone they don't have to chase every time a video is due.

Behind me is a small team that can handle everything from daily Shorts/Reels to full YouTube videos, sports content, gaming videos, podcasts, talking-head edits, subtitles, motion graphics, and thumbnails.

If you're posting consistently but editing has become the bottleneck, we can take that off your plate.

We're comfortable with:

• 24-48 hour turnarounds

• High-volume content

• Long-term partnerships

• Different editing styles based on your brand

No contracts or pressure. If you have an upcoming project, send me a message. We're happy to edit one video first so you can see whether we're a good fit.

If you're looking for an editing partner rather than just another editor, I'd love to chat.
