Test assignment

We're launching a YouTube channel for a boutique ocean expedition company — think freediving with Humpback Whales in Niue and Moorea, Orcas in Norway. The footage is real, wildlife-driven, and adventure-focused. We're not going for a polished, over-cinematic look — we want something that feels genuine and grounded. We're looking for an editor with **specific experience in travel, adventure, or wildlife/documentary content** — not gaming, not talking-head/tutorial content, not corporate. If your portfolio has cut expedition footage, nature documentaries, or travel vlogs with a real (not overproduced) feel, we want to see it. The content itself is freediving-based — ethical wildlife encounters with Orcas, Humpback Whales, and marine migration events, shot by a Natural History Cinematographer on location across Niue, French Polynesia, Norway, Mexico, Galápagos Islands, etc. If you have a personal interest in freediving or ocean sports, this is exactly that kind of footage. **This is a paid trial project** for our first video, with the intention of moving to a regular arrangement (per-video) if it's a good fit on both sides. **Structure every video follows (we'll provide a full written brief per video):**- 8-10 second hook using the best footage moment, front-loaded- Short branded title sequence (we provide the asset)- Main story, cut for pacing and momentum- On-camera subscribe call-to-action at the end **What we provide:**- Raw footage- A written brief per video (story beats, hook moment, key soundbites, b-roll notes, music/tone reference) **What we need from you:**- A finished long-form edit (10–20 min), 2 revision rounds included- Natural, true-to-life colour grading (not heavily stylized) - Audio mix, including music, clip audio + basic sound design, as required- Captions/subtitles- [Optional add-on: 2–3 Shorts/Reels cutdowns from the same footage] **Timeline (please read before applying):** This listing is open now to build a shortlist and confirm pricing — it is **not** an immediate start. Here's the realistic delivery and release schedule: | Batch | Destination & subject | Footage delivered (approx.) | Target release (approx.) || 1 | Niue — Humpback Whales | Mid-August 2026 | Early September 2026 || 2 | Moorea, French Polynesia — Humpback Whales | Mid-September 2026 | Early-to-mid October 2026 || 3 | Moorea (cont.) | Early October 2026 | Late October 2026 || 4 | Norway — Orcas | Early November 2026 | Late November 2026 | Mexico follows Norway, with further expeditions continuing on into 2027 and beyond — this is an ongoing series, not a fixed-length project. Turnaround per video is roughly 2.5–3 weeks including your two included revision rounds. For context: our channel launch video (unrelated to this role, edited in-house) publishes about five days ahead of the first video from this pipeline — so Batch 1 is effectively the second video the channel ever posts. Separately from the above, we may commission a small **paid test edit (~$100–150)** from existing footage once we've reviewed applications — this is to assess fit before committing to the ongoing arrangement, and its timing depends on who applies rather than a fixed date. **Software:** Ideally DaVinci Resolve, but we can work around Premiere Pro (or other) if necessary. **Turnaround:** Footage is delivered remotely (Dropbox or similar) while we're on expedition overseas, so there's no same-day back-and-forth expected. We'll agree to a realistic delivery window per video up front — generous, not a rush job — so you're not scrambling, but it's still a real deadline we'll hold to. **Budget:** Fixed price, USD$250 for this trial video, paid on delivery of final cut after revisions. Open to discussing an ongoing arrangement (per-video or monthly retainer) after this trial, based on fit. **To apply, please include:**1. Two or three portfolio examples — travel, adventure, or wildlife/documentary content specifically2. Your typical turnaround time for a 10–15 minute edit.

About us We are a German brand of premium jewelry. Our range includes items made of real gold and natural diamonds: rings, chains, earrings, pendants, bracelets. We plan to launch a series of viral commercials generated through AI for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts. Task You need to find 3 viral videos from TikTok, Instagram, or Shorts that are based on a strong everyday, life, or humorous situation in relationships. Important: The videos themselves do not necessarily have to feature jewelry. We need the viral mechanics of the situation surrounding the gift. We need plots that viewers (especially girls) will want to forward to a friend/man with phrases like: “This is us,” “Look at this obvious hint,” “Show this to your boyfriend,” “I want this too.” Video selection criteria - Viral video (not necessarily AI) - A large number of reposts: The plot should be a social trigger (for example, a girl forwards a hint about a gift to her boyfriend, or a man forwards a friend a life hack on “how to save an anniversary” or a marriage proposal). - Strong hook: A bright visual/textual/other hook in the first 1.5-2 seconds that makes viewers stop scrolling. Result from you 5 direct links to videos (Instagram, TikTok, or Shorts) How to search (Recommended tools) You can search in any convenient way, but for example: Section of official trends in TikTok Creative Center. Websites for finding trending content. Manual search by tags in Reels/TikTok (for example: #relationshiplife, #hintunderstood, #hintforboyfriend, #povcouple, #forgotaboutanniversary, etc.) - do not limit yourself to just these tags; we welcome your creativity. Budget and Deadlines Budget: $25 per project for 5 final approved videos. Note: If you are a video producer, we will discuss an order for the implementation of such a video with you.
