YouTube Shorts Video Editing

I have raw clips that need to be transformed into punchy, eye-catching YouTube Shorts. The final videos should be vertical (9:16), 15–60 seconds long, and optimized for fast-scrolling viewers.

Here’s what I’ll provide: the footage, a rough idea of the storyline, any on-screen text or branding assets, and background music if needed. Your job is to handle the full edit—select the best moments, add engaging cuts, motion graphics or captions, colour correction, basic audio sweetening, and export in a high-quality .mp4 ready to upload to the Shorts shelf.

Deliverables
• 1 finished YouTube Short (9:16, H.264 .mp4)
• A version with open captions burned in
• The project file (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or DaVinci Resolve) so I can tweak later if required

Acceptance criteria
• Crisp pacing that holds attention within the first 3 seconds
• Text and graphics sized safely for mobile viewing
• No copyright-restricted audio or assets

If you’re comfortable working quickly with social-first effects and understand the YouTube Shorts format, let’s get started right away.
