Short form Video Editor for Construction Podcast Clips – Australian Construction Podcast (Ongoing) We produce a professional podcast featuring two construction industry leaders based in Australia. Each episode runs approximately 90 minutes and is recorded and edited in DaVinci Resolve Studio. I'm looking for a skilled shorts editor to turn pre-selected moments from each episode into 6–8 polished vertical (9:16) clips suitable for Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. This is an ongoing role (one episode every 14 days) and I'm looking for someone reliable to become a regular collaborator. What You'll Receive *Please see screenshot attached for a timeline example of what you'll receive - Access to a Google Drive folder containing all source media and a DaVinci Resolve Timeline (.drt) file OR Premiere pro (DaVinci is preferred, but we can adapt to Premiere for the right editor) - The timeline will already have 8 sections marked/cut – these are your starting points. You do not need to watch the longform or select your own moments, it is simply a task to turn these preselected sections (1-3 minutes or so) into 30-60 second engaging reels. - No colour grading or audio processing is required; both are handled in-house Your Deliverables For each episode, you will produce 6–8 fully finalised short-form clips (30–60 seconds each) including: - Reframed/cropped to 9:16 vertical format - Engaging captions (styled appropriately for Reels/Shorts – not plain subtitles) - Cuts and pacing optimised for short-form retention and engagement - No b-roll – the focus is making the talking head format as dynamic and watchable as possible through editing rhythm, caption style, and framing - Delivered as a DaVinci Resolve project file OR Premiere pro file for final colour grading by our in-house team Content Context – Please Read This podcast is niche and the content is industry-specific. To do this well, you need to be able to identify what's engaging and what isn't within that context. Topics include: - The Australian construction industry (residential and commercial) - Australian trades culture (RDOs, EBAs, subcontractor relationships, site culture) - Australian slang and idioms You don't need to be a tradie, but you do need enough cultural awareness to understand the humour, the frustration, and the moments that will resonate with an Australian trades audience. Otherwise, this project may not be the right fit. Requirements - Proficient in DaVinci Resolve Studio OR Premiere Pro - Strong understanding of short-form content strategy (hooks, pacing, captions) - Able to turn around 6–8 clips within 5–7 days of receiving the project file - Familiarity with Australian English and ideally Australian trades/construction content Budget $150 AUD per episode (fixed price). This is a streamlined edit – no colour grade, no audio work, no b-roll sourcing. The rate reflects that scope. If you're fast, consistent, and culturally across the content, this is fun and reliable recurring work!

Hello, I can turn your pre-selected podcast segments into engaging, high-retention vertical clips that feel natural to the Australian construction audience. My focus is on sharp pacing, strong hooks in the first few seconds, and styled captions that highlight key phrases, humour, and punchlines making talking-head content feel dynamic without relying on b-roll. I’m proficient in both DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro, so I can work directly with your .drt timelines or adapt as needed. I understand the importance of tone and context in niche content like trades culture, and I’ll ensure each clip resonates with that audience while staying clean and professional. I can consistently deliver 6–8 clips within your 5–7 day window and am comfortable with your fixed budget for ongoing work. Happy to start with a trial episode. Best regards, Aqsa.

Hello, I will focus on transforming the pre-selected moments from each podcast episode into engaging vertical clips that resonate with your audience. My plan is to take the marked sections and create polished, eye-catching videos that highlight the key insights from your guests. I’ll pay close attention to pacing and flow to ensure each clip captures attention quickly and effectively. I believe in keeping it straightforward—focusing on what makes those moments compelling and relatable, so viewers feel connected to the conversation. In a previous project with another podcast, I took similar pre-cut segments and turned them into dynamic shorts that led to a noticeable increase in engagement across social platforms. The client saw a 30% boost in viewer interactions within a month, which helped them grow their audience significantly. What outcome are you really hoping to see from this?

Hi, With a litany of artistic skills under my belt, including video editing and production, I'm excited at the prospect of collaborating with you on your podcast.

Thanks to my familiarity with DaVinci Resolve Studio and deep understanding of short-form content strategy, I can amplify the charm and essence of your 90-minute episodes into bite-sized, highly entertaining reels. Moreover, my experience as a ghostwriter has given me the unique ability to adapt to different genres and resonate with audiences across various spectra. Understanding cultural nuances is a fundamental element for any storyteller and I assure you that being unfamiliar with "Australian slang and idioms" poses no obstacle; my passion for studying diverse cultures arms me with adaptable perspectives. Equally important is adhering to timelines in order to maintain a smooth workflow rest assured, I will deliver high-quality outputs within your requested timeframe every time. Let's chat and discuss this in more detail. Regards, Neha.

Hi, I’d love to handle your short-form edits for the Australian Construction Podcast and build a consistent, high-quality output for each episode. I understand the workflow—you’ll provide pre-cut segments, and my job is to transform them into 6–8 engaging 30–60s vertical clips focused on retention. I’ll reframe to 9:16, tighten pacing, and design dynamic captions that highlight key moments without feeling cluttered. My focus is making talking-head content engaging through rhythm, zooms, and caption styling—no unnecessary effects. I’m comfortable working in Premiere Pro (and can adapt to DaVinci workflow if needed) and delivering clean project files for your in-house finishing. I also understand the importance of cultural context—timing humor, tone, and key moments so they resonate with an Australian trades audience. Turnaround: 5–7 days per batch (6–8 clips). Budget: $150 AUD per episode works well. I’m reliable, consistent, and looking for long-term collaboration. Happy to share relevant short-form samples.

Hey, this is exactly the kind of short-form editing I enjoy—especially when the content is already well-structured and just needs to be shaped for retention. I’m comfortable working in DaVinci Resolve and Premiere Pro, and I’ve handled similar workflows where clips are pre-selected and the job is to turn them into tight, engaging 30–60s pieces. My focus is always on hook, pacing, and caption styling to keep viewers watching till the end. For your podcast clips, I’ll: • Reframe properly into 9:16 while keeping both speakers visually balanced • Tighten pacing by trimming dead space and emphasizing key moments • Add engaging, styled captions (not basic subtitles) that match tone and energy • Use subtle zooms/cuts to keep talking-head content dynamic without overdoing it I understand that this is niche, Australian construction-focused content, and I’m comfortable adapting to the tone, slang, and conversational style so the clips feel natural and relatable for your audience. Turnaround of 6–8 clips within 5–7 days works perfectly for me, and I’m looking for exactly this kind of ongoing collaboration. I’m happy to do a quick sample edit from one of your marked sections so you can see the style before committing. Best regards, Pawan Kumar

Short-form clips like this work best when the pacing and framing are rebuilt for vertical viewing, because segments that work in a long-form timeline often lose impact if they’re just cropped without restructuring. I’d take each pre-marked section from your DaVinci timeline and tighten it into a 30–60 second narrative with a clear hook at the start, then reframe to 9:16 so the speaker stays visually engaging throughout. Captions would be styled to carry emphasis and rhythm rather than just transcribing speech, helping hold attention in a talking-head format without relying on b-roll. The focus would be on timing, cuts, and caption flow so each clip feels intentional and watchable, while keeping everything aligned with your existing edit so nothing breaks when you bring it back into DaVinci Resolve Studio. Turnaround would stay within your 5–7 day window per episode to keep the workflow consistent. I’m familiar with how niche content like construction discussions needs to be shaped so the moments land properly with the right audience, even without over-editing. Do you already have a preferred caption style or examples from past clips you’d like matched??
