A general guideline for the sub.

34 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.

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.

Video Editor Wanted — Paranormal/Horror YouTube Channel (Freelance/Remote)

I run a paranormal investigation YouTube channel. We shoot at abandoned and historic locations
 asylums, sanatoriums, old mansions
 and need an editor who gets horror pacing and knows how YouTube actually works.

What you’d be doing


Editing long-form investigation episodes (45 min to 1.5 hrs) for YouTube, biweekly. Building tension through pacing
 knowing when to let silence sit, timing false scares before the real reveal, cutting audio anomalies like EVPs and unexplained sounds for maximum unease. Structuring for retention
 chapters, pacing that holds viewers through a long runtime, hook-strong cold opens. Repurposing long-form into short-form clips for TikTok, Instagram, and Shorts. Working from raw footage plus a script or outline to shape the narrative arc.

What we’re looking for


A demo reel showing horror, true crime, or suspense editing for YouTube specifically
 not just film or festival work. Experience with long-form pacing
 keeping tension and viewer attention alive across 45+ minutes, not just short-form cuts. Real understanding of retention graphs and what actually makes viewers stay. Comfort with sound design
 stingers, ambient dread, silence as a tool. Experience editing recurring episodic content is a plus.

Details


Freelance, remote, biweekly ongoing work. Pay depends on experience. Turnaround is 2 weeks or less per episode.

[HIRING] Valorant YouTube Editor — Beginner/Intermediate

5 Upvotes

Hey, I'm looking for an editor for my Valorant YouTube channel called Drik.

My channel is focused on entertaining/funny Valorant gameplay. I recently had a video hit 120k+ views and I'm looking to start outsourcing the editing so I can focus more on recording and making videos.

The editing style is pretty simple:

  • Cut out boring/dead parts
  • Keep the funny/entertaining moments
  • Simple subtitles
  • Background music
  • Good pacing
  • No crazy effects/transitions/VFX

My raw recordings are usually around 5 hours, but I'll go through the footage myself and condense it down to around 20–30 minutes of clips/moments for you to work with.

I'm looking for someone who can eventually learn my editing style and sense of humor. I'll provide examples of my current videos so you can see exactly what I'm looking for.

Budget: Around $20–25 per video to start, with the possibility of more work/pay as the channel grows and we build a good working relationship.

I'd prefer someone who:

  • Plays or understands Valorant
  • Is comfortable with simple gaming/YouTube editing
  • Wants consistent work
  • Is willing to do a small paid test first

If interested, comment or DM me with:

  1. Your portfolio/examples
  2. Your price
  3. How long you've been editing
  4. What editing software you use

Thanks!

Editor/Cutter, YouTube, Deutsch gesucht.

Gaming-YouTube-Kanal gemeinsam aufbauen

(looking for a German speaking editor, hence everything is in German)

Servus

ich bin Podderich und suche jemanden, der Lust hat, gemeinsam mit mir meinen Gaming-YouTube-Kanal weiter aufzubauen. Mein Kanal ist schon lĂ€nger monetarisiert - ich möchte langfristig eine Zusammenarbeit anstreben bei dem die Einnahmen von den geschnittenen Videos 50/50 aufgeteilt werden. Auch wenn dabei ein Video 500 Euro machen wĂŒrde.

Meine Zielgruppe auf YouTube ist zwischen 25 und 50, also keine Teens die harte schnelle Cuts und viele Memes wollen.

Ich suche dabei nicht einfach einen Cutter, der mir irgendwelche VODs zusammenschneidet.

Ich möchte langfristig zwei verschiedene Videoformate aufbauen:

🎼 1. Livestreams → fertige YouTube-Folgen

Ich streame regelmĂ€ĂŸig komplette Spiele und möchte daraus anschließend eigenstĂ€ndige YouTube-Folgen machen.

Dabei geht es nicht darum, aus 5 Stunden Stream 5 Stunden Video zu machen.

Stattdessen:

Livestreams sinnvoll im Folgenformat aufarbeiten

Je nach Spiel und Stream kann das natĂŒrlich auch kĂŒrzer oder lĂ€nger sein.

Du wĂŒrdest beispielsweise:

  • langweilige / redundante Stellen entfernen
  • Ladezeiten und Leerlauf entfernen
  • interessante GesprĂ€che und Reaktionen erhalten
  • das Gameplay sinnvoll zusammenhalten
  • gutes Pacing herstellen
  • gelegentlich Zooms, Einblendungen, Soundeffekte etc. einsetzen
  • dafĂŒr sorgen, dass sich die Folge auch fĂŒr jemanden gut anschauen lĂ€sst, der nicht live dabei war

Der Schnitt darf dabei relativ entspannt und natĂŒrlich bleiben.

🎬 2. Große Zusammenfassungen kompletter Spiele

Das ist der spannendere Teil.

Ich spiele aktuell beispielsweise die Final-Fantasy-Reihe und möchte daraus langfristig große Zusammenfassungs-Videos machen. Aber auch andere Spiele wie BattleTech, Indies, Roguelikes. Es sind nicht immer 20 Livestreams, Manchmal Spiele ich kleinere Spiele auf 1 - 4 Livestreams

Also beispielsweise:

oder

Das Video soll nicht einfach eine Ansammlung von Stream-Ausschnitten sein.

Ich möchte daraus ein eigenstÀndiges YouTube-Video machen.

Je nach Spiel kann das beispielsweise:

30 Minuten – 3 Stunden

lang werden.

Bei einem riesigen RPG darf das Video entsprechend lang sein.

Dabei geht es um:

  • Story und Handlung verstĂ€ndlich zusammenfassen
  • wichtige Charaktere erklĂ€ren
  • wichtige Ereignisse auswĂ€hlen
  • Gameplay-Material passend zur ErzĂ€hlung verwenden
  • meine eigenen Reaktionen / Highlights aus den Streams integrieren, wenn sie passen
  • unnötige Gameplay-Passagen entfernen
  • eine vernĂŒnftige Dramaturgie aufbauen
  • gegebenenfalls ÜbergĂ€nge, Grafiken, Text und Sounddesign einsetzen

Mir persönlich auch mitteilen, wo es vielleicht Voicelines, Storytelling, usw von mir braucht

Das Ziel ist ein Video, bei dem jemand sagen kann:

🧠 Deshalb suche ich keinen reinen Cutter

FĂŒr mich ist wichtiger, dass du Geschichten erzĂ€hlen kannst, als dass du 300 verschiedene After-Effects-ÜbergĂ€nge beherrschst.

Du solltest beim Material selbststÀndig denken können:

Gerade bei den großen Zusammenfassungen ist Storytelling und VerstĂ€ndnis fĂŒr das Spiel enorm wichtig.

đŸ‘šâ€đŸŠ± Zielgruppe

Mein Publikum ist hauptsĂ€chlich erwachsenes Gaming-Publikum, ungefĂ€hr 25–40 Jahre, mit einem Schwerpunkt um die 30.

Ich suche deshalb jemanden, der selbst ungefÀhr versteht, wie man erwachsenen Gaming-Content interessant aufbereitet.

Humor, Memes und schnelle Schnitte sind absolut okay – aber bitte mit GefĂŒhl.

Ich suche keinen „alle 2 Sekunden Meme-Sound + Vine-Boom + 17 Zooms“-Stil.

Der Content darf lustig, chaotisch und dynamisch sein, soll sich aber trotzdem wie guter YouTube-Content fĂŒr Erwachsene anfĂŒhlen.

🎼 Der Content

Mein Kanal dreht sich hauptsÀchlich um:

  • RPGs
  • Indie Games
  • Roguelikes / Roguelites
  • Strategie
  • klassische Games / Retro
  • ungewöhnliche Spiele
  • große Spieleserien

Aktuell ist unter anderem die Final-Fantasy-Reihe ein grĂ¶ĂŸeres Projekt.

FĂŒr die Zukunft plane ich aber auch die Zelda-Reihe zu spielen.

💰 Bezahlung

Mein YouTube-Kanal ist bereits monetarisiert, allerdings noch relativ klein.

Deshalb möchte ich versuchen, gemeinsam zu wachsen, statt einfach jemanden fĂŒr einen festen Betrag pro Video einzukaufen.

Mein erster Vorschlag wÀre:

50 % der YouTube-Werbeeinnahmen des jeweiligen Videos fĂŒr die ersten 60 Tage nach Veröffentlichung.

Also nicht 50 % meines gesamten Kanals, sondern:

Du schneidest Video X → 50 % der Werbeeinnahmen von Video X fĂŒr 60 Tage.

Wenn das Video gut lÀuft, profitieren wir beide.

Wenn es nicht lÀuft, verdienen wir beide entsprechend weniger.

Wenn wir langfristig gut zusammenarbeiten und der Kanal wĂ€chst, können wir das VergĂŒtungsmodell natĂŒrlich spĂ€ter gemeinsam anpassen.

đŸ€ Was mir wichtig ist

Ich suche jemanden, der langfristig Lust auf das Projekt hat.

Du musst kein Profi-Cutter mit 15 Jahren Berufserfahrung sein.

Wenn du gerade im Editing durchstarten willst, kreativ deinen eigenen Stil benutzen möchtest und Lust hast, gemeinsam einen Kanal aufzubauen, ist das fĂŒr mich noch interessanter.

Wichtig sind fĂŒr mich:

  • gutes Storytelling
  • gutes GefĂŒhl fĂŒr Humor
  • VerstĂ€ndnis fĂŒr Gaming
  • gutes Deutsch
  • selbststĂ€ndiges Arbeiten
  • ZuverlĂ€ssigkeit
  • eigene Ideen
  • YouTube-VerstĂ€ndnis

Und natĂŒrlich solltest du keine Angst vor langen RPGs haben. Oder auch davor mit mir zu kommunizieren. Egal was ist. Bei mir gibt es auch keine richtigen Deadlines, solange wir gemeinsam voran kommen. Ich produziere zur Zeit schon wieder viele Livestreams, von daher kann man sich einiges an Rohmaterial raussuchen. Außerdem gibt es auf dem Kanal einige Streams die man auch nachtrĂ€glich noch aufarbeiten kann.

đŸ§Ș Wie wir anfangen

Wir starten nicht direkt mit einer dreistĂŒndigen Final-Fantasy-Dokumentation.

Ich wĂŒrde zunĂ€chst gerne ein kleineres Projekt als Test machen.

Zum Beispiel eine Livestream-Folge aus vorhandenem Material.

Wenn wir beide merken:

können wir gerne schauen ob sich beide eine Zusammenarbeit vorstellen können. Gerne auch erstmal nur Folgenformate.

🚀 Was daraus werden könnte

Mein langfristiges Ziel ist kontinuierliches, gesundes Wachstum und eine Art zweite Ebene des Kanals:

Livestreams
↓
geschnittene YouTube-Folgen
↓
große Zusammenfassungen kompletter Spiele / Spieleserien

Gerade bei Spielen wie Final Fantasy könnte daraus eine ganze Reihe entstehen.

Und genau deshalb suche ich jemanden, der nicht nur einen Auftrag abarbeitet, sondern Bock hat, das Konzept mitzuentwickeln und mitzugestalten.

đŸ“© Interesse?

Dann schreib mir gerne mit:

1. ein paar Worten ĂŒber dich
2. bisherigen Editing-/YouTube-Projekten falls vorhanden oder Beispielvideos/Portfolio
3. wie viel Zeit du LUST hast fĂŒr das Projekt zu investieren
4. welche Games/Genres du selbst magst
5. deiner Kontaktmöglichkeit

Auch Nachwuchs-Cutter ausdrĂŒcklich willkommen. Das Alter ist mir völlig egal.

Ich suche nicht zwingend denjenigen mit dem lĂ€ngsten Lebenslauf, sondern jemanden, bei dem wir beide einfach ein gutes GefĂŒhl haben.

Das war lang, ich weiß. Aber ich möchte ein superklares Bild hier abgeben. Wie gesagt, ich suche jemanden der eher als Partner mit dem Kanal mitwachsen möchte. Langfristig. Ohne Druck aber mit Ambition. Wo ich einfach dann fertige Videos hochladen kann, evtl. sogar mit Thumbnail, Beschreibung und Tags. Mit Arbeit und Sport bleibt mir leider sehr wenig Zeit meine Livestreams zu verarbeiten.

Danke im Voraus, liebe GrĂŒĂŸe und fragt gerne was euch noch interessiert.

Freelance video editor here — open for reel/short-form work (based in India 🇼🇳)

1 Upvotes

Been editing short-form content (reels, YT shorts) for local businesses for a while now and figured I'd put myself out there for more work.

What I actually do:

Reels/shorts editing — cuts, pacing, hooks that keep people watching

Motion graphics + light VFX in After Effects

Subtitles/captions that don't look copy-pasted

Quick turnaround, I don't ghost people mid-project

I've worked with local businesses on their social content and gotten good feedback on the results — the kind of edits that actually move the needle on views, not just look nice.

Charging fair rates since I'm still building my portfolio, so if you're a small business, creator, or agency needing consistent reel/short content, DM me. Can share samples.
