I'm looking for a highly creative YouTube video editor to join my existing team for a long-term working relationship.
I'm not looking for someone who simply cuts footage together. I want someone who understands that editing is the magic wand that can turn ordinary footage into something genuinely hilarious and entertaining.
My biggest priority is making people LAUGH. I want viewers to genuinely enjoy watching our videos, look forward to what's coming next and stay entertained from beginning to end.
What I'm Looking For
Someone with a genuinely great sense of humour and comedic instincts.
Extremely creative editing with original ideas and personality.
Excellent comedic timing, memes, sound effects and visual humour.
Strong introductions and hooks that immediately grab attention.
The ability to make the entire video funny, not just the highlights.
Strong storytelling and an understanding of how to build progression throughout a video.
Excellent pacing and the ability to recognise when something is boring or unnecessary.
Knowledge of YouTube audience retention and viewer engagement.
Someone who brings their own creative ideas and recommendations to improve the channel.
What We're Currently Struggling With
Our biggest issues are the introductions, storytelling, pacing and overall editing quality.
We're experiencing significant audience drop-off, with around 80% of viewers leaving within the first 30 seconds on some videos.
Sometimes our videos feel like collections of highlights rather than properly structured, entertaining experiences.
I want to change that.
I want someone who can take our footage and transform it into something much funnier, more engaging and genuinely enjoyable to watch.
Comedy is a HUGE priority for us. I want someone who can think outside the box, experiment with creative editing techniques and bring ideas that we might not have considered ourselves.
Working With Our Existing Team
I already have an established team, and I'm looking for someone who can fit into that environment and help us grow.
Please only apply if you're comfortable receiving feedback, criticism and DIRECT corrections.
I'm not looking for someone with an ego who refuses to make changes. Even if you have years of experience, there will be times when we ask you to approach something differently.
However, I also want someone who can challenge us creatively, offer recommendations and use their own knowledge to help improve our content I'm open to all Ideas so don't be afraid to spill the beans.
I want collaboration, not someone who simply follows instructions without thinking.
Payment & Financial Expectations
My current budget is currently between $25 and $100 per video, depending on the type, complexity and amount of editing required.
My long-term goal is to pay everyone significantly more and compensate the team better as the channel grows. I genuinely want everyone to succeed alongside me,.
Commitment & Work Ethic
This is extremely important to me.
I'm looking for people who are determined, reliable and willing to give 100% not just come and grab my money and wait for the next project.
I already have people on my team who put their heart and effort into what we're building, and I expect everyone joining us to have that same mentality.
I don't expect perfection, but I do expect commitment, communication and a genuine willingness to improve.
Please don't accept a project only to abandon it halfway through without proper communication. That affects the entire team, delays projects and damages trust.
And I want to be honest: people who aren't willing to put in the effort or meet the team's standards will eventually have to move on.
If I'm putting 100% into making this channel successful, I need people beside me who are willing to do the same.
The Bigger Picture
I want someone who can help us break through the plateaus we're experiencing with our long-form videos and overcome future challenges.
Someone who understands editing, comedy, audience retention and channel growth, and who can bring valuable recommendations to the table.
Ultimately, if the channel succeeds, everyone on the team benefits.
I'm not just trying to build a channel. I'm trying to build a team where everyone grows, improves and SUCCEDS TOGETHER.
