Cinematic Trailer Editor for AI Filmmaker — Showreel, NOT a template edit
Budget / Salary$250–750
TypeFreelance project
LocationRemote
Posted2 hours ago
I produce AI-generated video and I have a growing library of finished clips. I'm launching myself publicly as an AI content creator and I need a trailer that positions me as one — the kind of piece that makes someone stop scrolling and ask who made it.
Main trailer — 60–90 sec, 16:9, 4K, for YouTube / website / portfolio.
Vertical cutdown — 20–30 sec, 9:16, derived from the main edit, built for Reels / TikTok / Shorts (not a crop — re-framed and re-timed).
Project file + list of every licensed asset used (music, SFX, fonts).
What I do NOT want
A CapCut template. Clips dropped onto a beat grid. Stock whoosh transitions. Generic "cinematic" title animation. If your workflow is "import folder → apply preset → export," this is not the job.
What I DO want
Actual trailer editing:
Structure — hook in the first 3 seconds, escalation, a drop, a final title card that lands the positioning.
Sound design driving the cut — risers, impacts, sub drops, and silence used deliberately before a hit. The audio should be doing at least half the work.
Speed ramps, match cuts and transitions motivated by what's in the frame, not applied on top of it.
A cohesive grade so that ~40 clips generated across different models read as one film with one visual identity.
Kinetic typography with intent — a few words, placed where they hit, not floating captions.
I will provide
Organized footage folder with selects, my positioning statement / logline, logo and brand colors, and 2–3 reference trailers I want to feel close to.
Requirements
Portfolio with at least one trailer, hype reel or sizzle you personally cut (link it and tell me which sections are your work).
Premiere / After Effects, or Resolve / Fusion.
Real sound design ability, not just dropping a track under the cut.
You source royalty-free or properly licensed music and SFX.
To apply — answer these three. Proposals that skip them get ignored.
Start your proposal with the word MATCHCUT so I know you read the brief.
Link 1–2 trailers you edited. Timestamp the 10 seconds you're most proud of and tell me why those 10 seconds work.
In 2–3 sentences: how would you structure a trailer where the subject is a creator, not a story or a product?
Fixed price, Tell me your price for both deliverables and your turnaround. Revisions: 2 rounds included — quote accordingly.
