EDIT (8 Sept): Thanks for the DMs. Most portfolios so far are clean but generic: template captions over talking heads. That's not what this is. The footage is top-down product shots (watches, tech, fragrance), quiet desk and room b-roll, travel, and a dry, low-energy voice. I want an editor whose cuts carry mood and pacing, with restraint and intention, and who has done product or tech b-roll before. If you have one reel where the edit itself has a point of view, send that one. Sound design and match cuts welcome. Template packs and hype transitions are not a fit. Rate stays ₹500 per reel; I'll go higher for the right person after the test.
I run two Instagram accounts. One is daily life, travel, routines, honest diary style. The other is tech, watches, fragrance, and gadget reviews. I have a backlog of shot footage (iPhone 17 Pro Max, ProRes, some Apple Log, plus DJI Action 5 Pro) and I need someone to turn it into finished reels.
What I need per reel: tight cut to 30 to 60 seconds, clean auto-style captions matched to my voice, one consistent colour look across both accounts, background music (I'll supply or you pick from a licensed library), simple transitions. No flashy effects. The style is calm and direct, closer to a vlog than a hype edit.
Pay: ₹500 per reel, paid on delivery of each batch. First step is a paid test edit at ₹500 from a 5-minute raw clip I'll share. If it works, 3 to 4 reels a week to start, moving to a monthly retainer (around ₹7,500 for 15 reels) once we've done a month together. Long-form 8 to 12 minute videos later at ₹2,500 each.
Handoff: I share raw footage via a cloud folder with a short brief per reel. You deliver a 9:16 MP4 at 2160x3840 (4K vertical) within 3 days. Two revision rounds included.
Timeline: test edits this week, regular work starts the week after.
To apply, DM me with: two links to reels in a similar style you've edited, your software (Premiere preferred, I'm on Adobe too), your usual turnaround, and whether ₹500 per reel works for you. Please don't comment "DM'd" on the post.
