Descriptions
I’m looking for a talented video editor who can turn my raw travel/vacation footage into a breathtaking, cinematic mini-movie that people actually stop scrolling for.
What I have:
- 1–3 hours of raw 4K footage (shot on iPhone 15/16 Pro, GoPro, and/or DJI drone)
- Mix of landscape shots, city exploring, activities, timelapses, talking-to-camera moments, and personal highlights
What I need (final video 3–6 minutes):
- Cinematic color grading (think rich, vibrant travel vibes – Teal & Orange or custom LUT welcome)
- Smooth transitions, speed ramps, and subtle zoom effects
- Perfectly synced background music (royalty-free, upbeat/chill cinematic travel tracks – I can provide mood or you pick winners)
- Sound design: natural ambient sounds enhanced, light sound effects, clean audio where I speak
- Professional text overlays / lower thirds / location titles (clean, modern style)
- Subtle slow-motion and hyperlapse moments where it looks epic
- Intro title card + very light ending card with CTA (Subscribe / Follow)
- Delivered in 3 formats:
- 16:9 for YouTube (4K)
- 9:16 for Instagram Reels & TikTok (4K)
- 1:1 square version optional
Must look & feel:
- Professional, emotional, wanderlust-inducing – like top travel creators (Lost LeBlanc, Kara & Nate, Sam Kolder style)
- 100 % smooth playback, no choppy cuts
- Export with highest possible quality
Extras (huge bonus if you can do):
- Thumbnail design (1–2 clickbait-but-classy options)
- Short 30–60 sec teaser cut for Reels/TikTok
When you reply, please include:
- 2–3 recent travel/adventure edits you’ve done (links!)
- Your fixed all-in price for the full 3–6 min edit + all 3 formats
- Exact turnaround time (ideally 5–10 days max)
Only apply if you have real experience with travel content and your portfolio makes me go “WOW”.
