# Long-Term Opportunity

We are looking for a reliable editor for ongoing work.

If your work quality is excellent, this can become a long-term partnership with consistent monthly projects.

Applications WITHOUT sample videos or a reel will NOT be considered.

We're looking for a highly creative short-form video editor to produce animated, high-energy video ads for Meta (Facebook/Instagram) ad campaigns.

WHAT YOU'LL DO:
- Edit punchy, scroll-stopping short-form videos (15–60 sec) for Meta ads
- Add dynamic motion graphics, animated text, transitions, and effects
- Cut hooks that grab attention in the first 3 seconds
- Sync edits to trending audio/music and pacing
- Iterate quickly based on ad performance feedback

REQUIREMENTS:
- Proven experience editing short-form video ads (TikTok/Reels/Meta style)
- Strong skills in animation and motion graphics (After Effects, CapCut, Premiere Pro, etc.)
- Understanding of what makes ad creatives convert
- Fast turnaround and ability to handle volume

TO APPLY — IMPORTANT:
Please include links to your past work / portfolio. Show us your most animated, high-energy short-form edits.

• How long does it take you to edit short form video?
• Describe your recent experience with similar projects

What we do
We make cinematic, emotional AI music-performance videos — a single performer on a grand stage, the whole room in tears. They go viral, and we need creators who can build them start to finish.

What you'll make
Short, deeply emotional performance videos: generate a realistic AI singer, lip-sync them to our song, and cut it together with stage and crowd footage into something that genuinely makes people cry. Think polished concert film.

What we're looking for

Real, hands-on AI experience — this is non-negotiable; you already work with AI generation tools daily
Fast — you turn edits around quickly without dropping quality
AI generation — you can make a performer that looks truly real, not fake
Lip-sync — tight, every word, dead-on
Shot-building — strong framing, angle variety, a real eye
Editing, pacing & emotion — you know how to build a moment and land the gut-punch
Sound — clean mix, cuts that hit the beats and the swells
Obsessive about realism and detail; self-starter
Our tool stack (you should know these or pick them up fast)

Stills: Nano Banana 2 Pro (via Google Flow)
Animation: Veo 3.1 Fast (Google Flow)
Singing lip-sync: Dreamina OmniHuman
Speech lip-sync: HeyGen
Voice: ElevenLabs
Music: Suno
Editing: CapCut
To apply
Send 1–2 of your best examples. Strong applicants get a short paid test edit, with steady ongoing work from there.

I need 10 different types of trees for our RuneScape-style MMORPG. The trees can look fairly similar, but each should have enough unique characteristics to make them easily recognizable from one another.

I’ve attached examples of the logs obtained from each tree to help guide the visual design. Please use these as a reference when creating the tree models so players can easily associate each tree with the logs it produces.

Preference will be given to artists who have played Old School RuneScape in the past, or who are willing to study its art style and tree progression system to understand how different tree types should look and feel within the game world.

The editing is very basic. I only need:

* Cutting the video down and putting everything together
* Removing pauses, mistakes, and unnecessary parts
* Improving the pacing
* Adding occasional zoom-ins when appropriate
* Basic cleanup and smooth transitions

No advanced effects, motion graphics, animations, or anything complicated.

The raw footage is approximately 34 minutes long and needs to be edited down to around 20 minutes.

I’m looking for a video editor / animator to create YouTube documentary videos in a style similar to the channels Wallace Animation and Serious History.

Reference examples:

Wallace:
https://youtu.be/tNc8OpsneVc

Serious History:
https://youtu.be/Yctn_C_6cF8

The style I’m looking for includes:

Simple 2D illustrated characters
Cutout-style animation
Character movement and expressions
Camera pans, zooms, and scene transitions
Maps, diagrams, and visual storytelling
Motion graphics where appropriate
Strong pacing and viewer retention

This is NOT a traditional documentary with stock footage.

I’m specifically looking for someone who can create videos that feel similar to Wallace Animation and Serious History using illustrated characters and simple animations.

The first project will be a 10–15 minute YouTube documentary.

The script will be provided.

Please include:

Examples of similar animation/documentary work.
Your estimated price for a 10–15 minute video.
The software you use (After Effects, Illustrator, etc.).
Whether you would be interested in long-term work if the channel grows.

To make sure you’ve read everything, start your proposal with the word “Football”.

Looking forward to seeing your work.

Hello,

I’m looking for a WordPress developer to help fix several bugs and make final improvements to three of my websites.

Most of the work is related to Daypass.fit, which still requires a number of fixes and adjustments. The other two websites, Kleinslimmeriken.nl and Discoverbangkoktours.com, only have a few minor issues that need attention.

I built these websites over the past few weeks and am now looking for someone who can help complete the final tasks and ensure everything functions properly before launch.

Below, I have listed the required fixes and improvements for each website.

Kleinslimmeriken.nl
Fix the homepage slider on desktop. Center the button and remove the sliding animation. The slider should remain static and not automatically move.

Fix the homepage slider on mobile devices.

Homepage:
https://www.kleineslimmeriken.nl/


Discoverbangkoktours.com
On the homepage (below the slider), the logos for "Bangkok by the River" and "Coming Soon" become very small after adding a link. Without a link, the logos display at the correct size. Please fix this issue.

On the blog archive page, the links for "Bangkok by the River," "Booking.com," and "TripAdvisor" display incorrectly due to margin and spacing issues. The layout looks correct when the links are removed. The issue only occurs when links are added.

Blog page:
https://www.discoverbangkoktours.com/blog/ (below “Coming soon” banner)


Daypass.fit
Change the URL structure for city and country pages from /tour-destination/ to /destination/. Example: https://www.daypass.fit/tour-destination/bangkok/

Change the search URL parameter from /?tour_search to /?gym_search. Screenshot: https://snipboard.io/qEmwty.jpg

Update the text "Tours, Explore experiences, spas, tours and more" on the Tours page. Screenshot: https://snipboard.io/siaHCq.jpg

Rename "Tour Type" on single gym pages. Example: https://www.daypass.fit/find-a-gym/fitness-first-bangkok/ (below “Coming Soon” photo)

Rename "Similar Experiences" on single gym pages. Example: https://www.daypass.fit/find-a-gym/fitness-first-bangkok/ (at the bottom of the page)

Make all gym listing blocks the same height and layout. Currently, their size varies depending on the title and content length. Screenshot: https://snipboard.io/juZvg2.jpg

Resolve duplicate URLs. Gym pages are currently accessible through both /product/ and /find-a-gym/ URLs.

We are launching an elite-tier, persona-led faceless business and finance documentary channel under the personal brand. We are looking for a highly skilled, long-term video editor who specializes in high-retention, cinematic visual storytelling.

This is NOT a generic cash-cow channel using stock footage. We are building premium, deeply researched investigative documentaries analyzing corporate warfare, financial scandals, and macroeconomic trends in India and globally.

🎥 Visual Style & References:

Your editing style must align perfectly with the pacing, asset usage, and aesthetic of the following channels:

MagnatesMedia (For the cinematic drama, 3D parallax effects on documents, and dark, premium color grading)
Dhruv Rathee / Johnny Harris (For the clean paper-tear transitions, fluid map animations, and seamless integration of news clippings)


🛠️ Key Responsibilities:*

Visual Pacing:Transform a 10 to 12-minute raw voiceover file into a fast-paced, high-retention visual masterpiece.
Advanced Motion Graphics: Create custom data charts, kinetic typography, highlighted document zooms, and map animations.
Sound Design & Mixing: Use cinematic risers, subtle glitches, atmospheric background tracks, and bass drops to drive the narrative tension.
Avatar Integration: Seamlessly incorporate a stylized 2D comic-style avatar into the visual sequence.

💼 Requirements:

Expert-level mastery of Adobe Premiere Pro & After Effects(or DaVinci Resolve / Blender / UE5 equivalents).
A strong portfolio demonstrating complex motion graphics, document tracking, and cinematic sound design.
Deep understanding of YouTube retention mechanics (keeping the viewer hooked every 3 to 5 seconds).
Ability to meet strict deadlines and communicate effectively.

🔒 To Apply:

Please send a link to your portfolio or specific video samples that match the styles of the channels listed above. Applications without relevant video essay/documentary samples will be ignored.
Budget: Project-based.
Looking to lock in a long-term partnership.

Create a 20-second promo video for a SaaS platform in the construction materials supply industry. Highlight the speed and simplicity of digital ordering, showcasing how the platform streamlines the process for users. The video should be engaging and effectively communicate the benefits of using the platform.

I am looking for a motion graphics designer/video editor to create a custom fairytale-style wedding invitation intro video.

The video should feature a magical castle, sparkle effects, a page-turn transition, and elegant text animations.

You will need to recreate a Disney Princess type of intro using the famous Disney castle.
However instead of the “Disney” words appearing on screen , it needs to say “The Linden Fairytale”

Please note:
After the intro animation plays, I want it to automatically redirect guests to our Zola wedding website.

Flow:
1. Guest opens the link
2. Intro video plays
3. “The Linden Fairytale” appears
4. Fairy sparkle creates a page-turn transition
5. Final screen says: “You’re Invited to the Royal Ball”
6. After 3–5 seconds, the page automatically redirects to our Zola website

Please also include a small “Skip Intro” option in case guests want to go straight to the website.

The finished video will be uploaded to our Zola wedding website and used as part of our digital wedding invitation experience.

I am seeking a highly skilled, efficient video editor to finalize and polish a 20-minute instructional, step-by-step YouTube video. The foundational work is already done, as first-round edits are complete, including the removal of blunders, starts, stops, and major pauses. Your job is to bring the energy, pacing, and visual engagement required to keep viewers locked in from start to finish. Specifically, you will merge three pre-edited video clips into one cohesive product, implement a high-energy YouTube creator style featuring fast zoom-ins and dynamic transitions, and insert provided photos, 3–5 second videos, and exact text overlays at pre-determined minute markers. You will also need to source and integrate appropriate, engaging sound effects to complement the transitions and text overlays. To make this a seamless sprint, I am providing pre-cut, clean footage with timestamps for all edits, all specific photos and video clips to insert, and the exact copy for all text overlays. The first draft is required within 48–72 hours from hire, though the sooner it is delivered, the better. I can pay a bonus for 24 hour turnaround. The final deliverable will be one fully mastered, high-energy 20-minute MP4 video ready for YouTube upload. To apply, please share 2–3 links to YouTube videos you have edited that showcase your best high-energy pacing, quick zooms, and text effects.

The Coloring Hour is a dark, atmospheric YouTube channel for adult colorists. Every piece of content — long-form YouTube videos, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts — exists inside the same visual and emotional world: deep shadows, warm amber candlelight, rain or atmospheric sounds on glass, open coloring books, alcohol markers on dark wooden surfaces. The feeling is a private sanctuary while the outside world stays outside.

This is not a bright, cheerful craft channel. This is not generic lifestyle content. This is a specific, intentional aesthetic that the adult coloring community has never had a dedicated home for — until now.

Reference channels for the YouTube aesthetic:

• Guild of Ambience: youtube.com/@GuildofAmbience
• Cozy Cabin Ambience: youtube.com/@cozycabinambiencee

Please watch at least two videos from each before applying.

What I Need

A skilled short-form video producer who can:

• Take my written creative descriptions and AI-generated atmospheric images and turn them into scroll-stopping Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts
• Match the exact dark, cinematic, moody aesthetic of the channel — no bright colors, no fast cuts, no trending sounds
• Produce content that grows the brand, hits the adult coloring community, and drives traffic to YouTube
• Align each week’s Reels with that week’s YouTube video theme
• Deliver quality over quantity — fewer exceptional Reels beats more mediocre ones every time

I provide: written descriptions for each Reel, AI-generated atmospheric images, caption copy, brand guidelines, and audio direction.

You provide: everything else — animation, text, audio layering, transitions, export in correct format.

The Non-Negotiables

Visual style:

• Dark interiors — deep shadow consuming most of the frame
• One warm amber or candlelight light source only
• Rain on glass, candles, open coloring books, alcohol markers on dark wooden surfaces
• No people, no faces, no hands
• Slow cinematic motion — Ken Burns zoom, subtle drift, barely perceptible movement
• Cinematic film grain on everything
• Warm amber color grade consistent across all content
• Never bright, never cheerful, never pastel

Audio:

• Layered atmospheric soundscapes — rain, fireplace, forest, wind, coffee shop ambience
• No trending music, no upbeat tracks, no narration
• Audio varies by video theme — not always rain
• All audio royalty-free and cleared for Instagram and YouTube commercial use

Text:

• Font: Playfair Display italic only
• Color: cream — #dde8d4
• Animation: slow fade in, slow fade out — never bouncy, never fast
• Maximum 2–3 lines per Reel
• Text is atmospheric and poetic — never salesy or promotional

Format:

• Instagram Reels: 9:16, 1080 x 1920px, 10–30 seconds
• YouTube Shorts: 9:16, 1080 x 1920px, 30–60 seconds
• Deliver as MP4 files ready to post

Weekly Content Structure

Each week aligns with one YouTube video theme. You receive:

• The YouTube video’s creative description and mood
• 2–3 Reel descriptions for that week
• Caption copy for each Reel
• Audio direction specific to that week’s theme

You deliver:

• 2–3 finished Instagram Reels
• 1 YouTube Short
• All delivered by Sunday for the following week’s posting schedule

The Four Reel Types You’ll Produce

Type 1 — The Atmosphere Preview
A 15–20 second atmospheric clip that gives viewers a taste of that week’s YouTube video. Slow zoom into the scene. Text fades in with one evocative line. Rain or atmospheric audio underneath. Ends with a soft call to watch on YouTube.

Type 2 — The Identity Hit
Speaks directly to the adult colorist who has never felt their hobby taken seriously. Dark atmospheric visual. Text appears line by line calling out a specific feeling or moment. Designed to make someone stop and think “that’s me.”

Type 3 — The Scroll Stopper
One powerful visual. One line of text. Maximum impact minimum noise. Designed to make someone freeze mid-scroll and feel something before they consciously understand why.

Type 4 — The Community Call
Invites engagement from the adult coloring community. Asks a question, makes a statement that demands a response, or validates a specific coloring behavior. Designed to drive comments and shares within the coloring community specifically.

Sound Expansion — Beyond Rain

Initial videos focus on rain and thunderstorm atmospheres. As the channel grows the sound palette expands to include:

• Fireplace crackling with wind outside
• Forest after rain
• Coffee shop ambient
• Winter silence and snow
• Autumn wind through trees
• Summer night insects

Your Reels audio should match whatever atmosphere the week’s YouTube video features — not default to rain every week.

What Viral Looks Like For This Channel

A viral Reel for The Coloring Hour is not millions of views from a broad audience. It’s thousands of shares within the adult coloring community specifically — people tagging friends saying “this is us” or “I need this.” Niche virality drives loyal subscribers faster than broad reach.

The content that will perform best:

• Makes adult colorists feel seen and understood
• Is so atmospherically beautiful people want to share it
• Creates FOMO for the YouTube channel experience
• Feels completely unlike anything else in their feed

To Apply Please Include:

1. Portfolio examples of dark, moody, atmospheric short-form video content — specifically anything slow, cinematic, and aesthetic. Not bright lifestyle content.
2. Examples of text animation work — must be slow and elegant not fast and bouncy
3. Confirmation that atmospheric audio production is included in your service
4. Your rate for: one Reel, a weekly package of 3 Reels + 1 Short, and a monthly retainer
5. In one sentence — what should the feeling of The Coloring Hour be?

Producers who do not include portfolio examples will not be considered. The one sentence answer is mandatory — it tells me whether you understand the brief.

Budget

Open to proposals. Looking for ongoing weekly relationship with the right producer. Quality over quantity — I will pay more for exceptional work than less for average work.

YouTube Motion Graphics Animator for Educational Math Channel (Intro & Outro)

PROJECT OVERVIEW

I am looking for a talented motion graphics animator to help elevate the production value of my educational YouTube channel, Math in Motion.

The channel demonstrates how mathematical concepts apply to real-world situations and everyday experiences. Currently, I produce videos by filming on location at various stores and businesses. I am now transitioning to a studio-style format that combines green screen footage with engaging animated backgrounds and motion graphics.

In this new format, I will present in front of a green screen while stylized, math-themed backgrounds and animations appear behind and around me. Rather than using real-world brands or storefronts, the visuals will feature original, math-inspired environments designed specifically for educational content.

I am seeking an animator who can create clean, engaging, and professional 2D motion graphics that help capture viewers' attention during the introduction and conclusion of each video. These animations may include mathematical symbols, equations, text effects, charts, graphs, icons, and other educational visual elements that interact naturally with the presenter.

The core lesson content will be created separately using Canva slides and voice-over narration. Your work will focus on creating a strong visual identity for the intro and outro segments that helps establish a polished, professional, and memorable viewing experience.

Note: You may apply for the Intro animation, Outro animation, or both.

RESPONSIBILITIES

- Remove and composite green screen footage into custom animated environments.
- Color-correct and integrate presenter footage for a professional on-screen appearance.
- Design and animate educational motion graphics, including:
- Mathematical equations
- Symbols and formulas
- Animated text and typography
- Graphs and charts
- Educational icons and visual effects
- Create smooth transitions and visual elements that enhance viewer engagement.
- Help develop a consistent visual style and branding for the channel.
- Deliver high-quality final assets and/or reusable animation templates in 1080p or 4K.

REQUIRED SKILLS

- Motion Graphics Animation
- 2D Animation
- Green Screen Compositing (Chroma Key)
- Adobe After Effects
- Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, or similar professional editing software
- Strong understanding of timing, pacing, and visual storytelling

WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR

The ideal candidate has a portfolio that demonstrates:

- Clean and professional motion graphics
- Bright, engaging educational visuals
- Strong typography and text animation
- Seamless integration of animated and live-action elements
- A friendly and approachable visual style

PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS

- Experience creating educational, explainer, or STEM-related content
- Familiarity with YouTube content production and audience engagement
- Experience building reusable animation systems and templates
- Understanding of how motion graphics can support learning and retention

PROJECT TYPE

Ongoing / Part-Time
This project has the potential to become a long-term partnership as new videos are produced on a regular basis.

HOW TO APPLY

Please include the following in your proposal:

1. A link to your portfolio, highlighting motion graphics, educational content, or green screen compositing work.
2. Whether you are interested in the Intro, Outro, or both.
3. A brief explanation of an educational animation project you are most proud of and why it was successful.
4. Your estimated cost and timeline for creating a custom intro and/or outro package.

I look forward to seeing your work and finding a creative partner who can help bring math to life through engaging visual storytelling.

I'm looking for someone to create an 8-second seamless Spotify Canvas from my existing cover artwork.

NO AI of any kind please!! :))

I want to preserve the design of the artwork and have a canvas that feels like an extension of the still image. My idea is to animate illustrated elements like the clouds, stars, doodles, bubbles, etc. while maintaining the handmade feel of the original cover art.

* Stars twinkling
* Doodles/spirals gently moving

* A very subtle camera push or parallax effect

Looking for someone who is artistic and can maintain the feel of the picture and expand upon it organically, as well as extending it out to fit the vertical formatting in a super natural way!

* Spotify Canvas format
* Final exported file ready for Spotify

Please include examples of similar animation or motion design work in your proposal.

I am open to discussing budget as well depending on how many hours you think this would take to complete!
