I have a steady stream of raw news footage that needs to be transformed into punchy, platform-ready clips for social media. You’ll work with the news clips I supply, tightening the narrative, adding dynamic headlines, lower-thirds, captions, and any light motion graphics that keep viewers watching with the sound off.

Key points you should know
• The finished pieces must feel newsroom-credible yet scroll-stopping enough for feeds on Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts.
• Please handle color correction, audio leveling, and quick cut pacing so the story lands inside the first few seconds.
• Multiple aspect ratios are essential: 9:16 vertical and 1:1 square alongside a standard 16:9 master.
• I’ll provide logos, brand colors, and any compliance notes—just keep titles, fonts, and lower-thirds consistent with them.

Deliverables
1. Edited video in 16:9, 1:1, and 9:16 (H.264 .mp4)
2. Subtitle file (.srt) plus burned-in captions where required
3. Source project file (Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve) with all assets carefully organized

Acceptance criteria
• First three seconds hook the viewer.
• Graphics are sharp, on-brand, and error-free.
• Audio peaks at –3 dB; dialogue clear over any background bed.
• Final durations per clip: 45–90 seconds unless otherwise noted.

If this workflow fits your skill set and you’re comfortable turning around revisions quickly, let’s get started—I’ve got the first batch of footage ready to upload right away.
