I have a library of long-form, landscape YouTube videos that I want to turn into punchy, vertical shorts for social media promotion. Your job is to comb through each video, pull out the strongest key highlights and genuinely funny moments, and reshape them into 9:16 clips that feel native on Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
What I need from you:
• 15–60 second portrait-format edits (MP4, H.264) for each selected moment
• Clean reframing, jump-cuts, and pacing that keeps mobile viewers hooked
• On-screen captions (burned in), my channel watermark, and any subtle motion graphics that fit the brand
• Audio leveled for phone speakers; add royalty-free background tracks only when they enhance energy
I will supply the original YouTube links and any brand assets. You return the finished shorts, plus project files (Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve) so I can tweak if needed.
Quality check: every clip must be free of black bars, keep the subject centered, and hook the viewer within the first three seconds. Once we nail the first batch, this can become an ongoing flow of videos.
