Video Editor / Content Producer for Educational Animal Care Channel

I run a specialized mobile business providing sedation-free hoof trimming for pet pigs across multiple U.S. states. My work is highly visual, hands-on, and educational in nature, and I’m looking to build a YouTube channel that showcases both the transformation process and proper hoof care techniques. I am looking for a video editor/content producer with experience in animal-related or educational content to help turn raw footage into clear, engaging, and informative videos. This is not high-production, studio-style content. It’s real-world, in-the-field work, and I need someone who understands how to shape that into compelling and digestible content. What You’ll Be Doing:

• Edit raw footage (POV, handheld, and static shots) into:
• YouTube long-form videos (8–20 minutes)
• Short-form clips (YouTube Shorts / TikTok style)
• Structure videos so they are:
• Easy to follow
• Educational without being dry
• Visually engaging (cuts, zooms, highlights where needed)
• Add:
• Captions/subtitles
• Basic graphics or callouts (labeling hoof structures, explaining steps, etc.)
• Light background music where appropriate
• Help identify strong moments in footage (before/after, key corrections, pig behavior, etc.)
• Optional but preferred: assist with titles, thumbnails, and general content packaging

⸻ Ideal Candidate:

• Has experience editing animal care, veterinary, grooming, or similar hands-on content
• Understands how to balance education + engagement
• Comfortable working with imperfect, real-world footage (not staged content)
• Can take initiative in structuring videos, not just cutting clips
• Has a clean, modern editing style (nothing overly flashy or distracting)

⸻ Bonus (Not Required):

• Experience with YouTube growth strategy
• Thumbnail design
• Familiarity with agricultural, livestock, or specialty animal content

⸻ Workflow:

• I will provide raw footage (likely from wearable camera, phone, or tripod)
• Looking to start with 1–2 videos to test fit, then move into ongoing work
• Long-term goal is consistent posting with a repeatable workflow

⸻ Budget:

• Open to per-project or ongoing monthly arrangement
• Please include your rate per video or hourly rate in your proposal

To Apply: Please include:

• Examples of relevant work (animal-related or educational content preferred)
• A brief explanation of how you would approach editing this type of footage
• Your turnaround time for a typical video
• Your rate structure

⸻ Important Note: This content involves real animal handling and hoof trimming. The goal is to educate and show proper technique clearly and responsibly, not just create entertainment.
