Looking for Long Term YouTube Editor (Channel about: Hybrid photography and video) Paid

Hey everyone,

I run a YouTube channel under the name Roy van der Wens. I’m currently at just over 20,000 subscribers.

I recently made a shift and narrowed down my niche.

I’m now fully focused on hybrid photography and video as one shooter.

Looking for:

  • Fast paced editing with strong retention  
  • Story driven edits, not just cutting clips  
  • Good sense of timing and humor  
  • Clean use of music and sound design  
  • Light captions or subtle graphics where needed
  • Someone who understands YouTube 
  • Style: high energy, personality driven, strong pacing, but still clean and intentional.

Important:

Please only reach out if you think you match this style.

About the current situation:

My recent videos are underperforming because of the niche shift.  

I want to be transparent about that.

I'm looking for an editor so I can focus on shooting videos

This is not a quick win project.

But the channel has proven it can grow, and I’m fully committed to building it back up within this niche.

Workflow:

  • I send the footage with a script and rough edit direction
  • You create a first cut
  • We review and refine together  
  • We finalize the video together

Technical:

I work in DaVinci Resolve.  

It’s a plus if you’re familiar with it, but not a requirement.

Before we start:

If this sounds like you, send me your portfolio and tell me a bit about yourself. Personality matters!

I’d like to do a video call first to see if we connect and speak the same creative language.

I’m loyal in collaborations and I’m not looking to switch editors constantly.

Compensation:

I’m looking for someone who wants to grow long term, not just do one off edits.

I don’t expect perfection. Mistakes are part of the process.  

What matters is that you’re willing to grow with me, improve, and build something together as a team.

I’m loyal in collaborations and I’m not looking to switch editors constantly.

I’m new to this, so I’m not sure what a fair price is. For example: do I pay ($20 HOURLY) or ($200 FLAT) for a project? This is open for discussion.
