Looking for an experienced short-form video editor to edit 3 pre-launch videos for Saigone, a Vietnamese-inspired meat snack brand launching March 16.
These are founder-led talking head videos with B-roll cutaways. Each video is 10-14 seconds. They need to feel raw, authentic, and cinematic — NOT polished brand ads. Think A24 trailer energy meets Anthony Bourdain.
What I'll provide:
Talking head footage (filmed, ready to go)
B-roll clips organized by video
Phone screen recordings
Gym footage
A detailed editing brief with shot-by-shot instructions, exact text overlay placement, color grading direction, and pacing notes
What I need:
3 edited vertical videos (9:16, 1080x1920, .mp4)
Hard cuts only (no transitions, no swipes)
Text overlays synced precisely to spoken words
Color grading: muted/cool tones for "sad food" shots, warm/golden for Vietnamese food shots
No music on Videos 1 and 2. Optional subtle ambient on Video 3.
One round of revisions
Turnaround: 48-72 hours
Must-haves:
Experience editing short-form vertical content (Reels/TikTok)
Strong sense of pacing and rhythm
Ability to follow a detailed shot list precisely
Understanding of color grading for mood/tone shifts
Nice-to-haves:
Experience with food or CPG brand content
Familiarity with founder-led storytelling content
Portfolio showing raw/authentic style (not corporate/polished)
Unlock AI Intelligence, score breakdowns, and real-time alerts
