I’m looking for a short-form video editor for one project to edit the first video for my new Instagram/TikTok personal brand. I recently moved from the Netherlands to Malaysia for a 6-month internship, and I’m starting to document my life here and the bigger journey of figuring out what I want to do next. For this first project, the video is purely a talking-head video, around 1 minute long. All footage is already recorded, so there is no B-roll needed for this video. The goal is to take a relatively simple talking-head video and make it feel engaging, modern and polished without over-editing it. For the edit, I’m looking for: - Clean, animated subtitles using Avenir - Different font sizes to emphasise important words/phrases - Potentially different font colours for certain key words/phrases where it looks good - Good pacing and clean cuts - Subtle punch-in/zoom-out effects to keep the video visually engaging - Suitable background music - Subtle sound effects and additional visual effects where appropriate (Optional) - Overall strong pacing and retention throughout the video I can send you reference videos showing exactly the editing style, subtitle style and overall feel I’m looking for, so you’ll have a clear idea of the direction before starting. Important: Must use CapCut Pro I personally use CapCut Pro on Desktop, so I’m specifically looking for an editor who also uses CapCut Pro. Part of the reason I’m commissioning this video is because I’m learning to edit my own content. I want to be able to take inspiration from your finished edit and understand how I can recreate similar effects and techniques in CapCut for my future videos. For now, this is only one video, not a monthly editing position. If we work well together there could potentially be more work in the future, but right now I’m looking for someone to create a really strong first video that can help establish the editing style for my content. Budget: $15–20 USD for the completed video. When applying, please send me: Examples of short-form talking-head/Reels/TikToks you have edited Ideally examples with animated subtitles and engaging pacing Please confirm that you edit using CapCut Pro I’m ready to send the footage and reference videos once I find the right editor. Looking forward to working with you!

Hey, Harmit here (not an AI-written proposal) - your first talking-head reel needs to feel polished, modern, and easy to recreate in CapCut Pro. Here's why this fits: I’ve spent 10+ years crafting clean, retention-focused edits for short-form content, including talking-head videos that rely on subtitles, pacing, and subtle motion rather than heavy effects. I’m confident I can edit this first IG/TikTok video for your personal brand, especially since you need CapCut Pro, animated Avenir subtitles, punch-ins, clean pacing, and a style you can learn from later. Based on your description, I can help you achieve a strong first video that feels engaging and establishes a repeatable editing style with a clean, reliable, and long-term solution. A few relevant examples: [login to view URL] - AI Video create and editing If you share the reference videos, I’ll match the style closely and keep the edit crisp for easy future recreation in CapCut Pro. Happy to jump on a quick call - just let me know a time that works. Thanks, Harmit

A first talking head for a new account has to earn the follow in the first two seconds, so I cut the opening to the line that actually says something about moving from the Netherlands to Malaysia rather than the line you probably started recording with. Filler and dead air taken out so the pace stays up without sounding chopped, b-roll or photos dropped over the parts where the story needs showing, captions styled and timed by hand because the auto ones drift on accents, and colour and audio evened so the phone footage looks intentional. Two days, delivered vertical for Reels and TikTok with a version trimmed for a Short, plus the project file. I edit short-form video daily, and here is previous work: https://www.freelancer.com/u/AzabacheProduc AU

There's a specific detail in this brief most bidders will read straight past. One challenge that stands out is ensuring the animated subtitles not only capture attention but also enhance the story you're telling without overwhelming the viewer. I recently completed a similar project where I edited a talking-head video for a travel influencer, focusing on engaging subtitles and pacing. The final product received excellent feedback, effectively capturing the essence of their journey and maintaining viewer retention. I understand your goal is to create a polished and modern video that reflects your new experiences in Malaysia. My approach will involve clean cuts, strategic punch-ins, and dynamic subtitles that highlight key phrases, all while using CapCut Pro to ensure you can easily replicate the techniques in your future edits. I prioritize practical solutions and high-quality execution to ensure your first video sets the right tone for your brand. I'd rather earn this with clarity than win it with promises. Regards Brendan

Why do talking-head videos with no B-roll end up either boring or over-edited? With nothing to cut away to, every subtitle timing, punch-in, and font choice has to carry the pacing on its own, which is exactly where most edits either sit flat or get so busy they distract from what's being said. A recent talking-head edit in CapCut Pro used the same animated subtitle and punch-in approach you're describing and held attention the whole way through without a single B-roll cut, which matters here since you're planning to study the edit afterward and recreate it yourself. CapCut Pro on desktop is the daily editor, confirmed. A couple of recent talking-head edits with animated subtitles are ready to send over. What's the exact target length you're aiming for on this one?.

YOU’RE NOT JUST LOOKING FOR AN EDITED VIDEO. YOU WANT AN EDIT YOU CAN LEARN FROM WITHOUT IT BECOMING OVER-EDITED. For a talking-head video, retention shouldn’t come from throwing effects everywhere. The cuts, pacing, subtitle emphasis, subtle movement and sound should make the video feel alive while still keeping you as the focus. I also like that you’re building this first video as a reference for your own editing. I can make the choices intentional and reproducible in CapCut Pro, so you’re not just receiving a finished video, but seeing techniques you can actually apply to future content. I use CapCut Pro on Desktop and can match your reference style closely while still making the edit feel natural rather than templated. Happy to send over relevant talking-head examples with animated subtitles and pacing. If the first edit lands the style you’re after, we can build from there.
