Instagram Reels Video Editing
Budget / SalaryHourly project
TypeFreelance project

I shoot vertical clips for Instagram and need a skilled editor to turn that raw footage into scroll-stopping Reels. The job is straightforward: trim and arrange the clips, add on-brand captions or subtitles, layer in trending audio, balance sound levels, and export a crisp 1080 × 1920 file that stays within Instagram’s 60-second limit.
You can work in Premiere Pro, Final Cut, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut—whatever lets you deliver a polished result plus the editable project file so I can make quick tweaks later if needed. I’ll provide all assets through Google Drive and a short creative brief for each video. Turnaround time is ideally 48 hours once you have the footage; clear communication on progress is a must because I post on a set content schedule.
Deliverables
• One finished Reel (≤ 60 s, 1080 × 1920, MP4 or MOV)
• Editable project file in your chosen software
• Separate caption file if subtitles are created outside the timeline
Acceptance criteria
• Smooth pacing that matches the music beat
• No black bars or mismatched aspect ratios
• On-screen text sized for mobile and readable against any background
• Audio levels normalized, no clipping or harsh transitions
If this first piece works well there will be ongoing weekly Reels to edit, so I’m looking for someone reliable who understands Instagram trends and can keep content fresh without needing constant hand-holding. Let’s create something people won’t scroll past.
