Cinematic Reels & Shorts Editor

I have raw vertical footage that needs to be transformed into scroll-stopping Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts. The finished clips should feel cinematic from the very first frame, yet remain optimised for social-media viewing. Here is the creative direction I’m after: • Overall vibe: cinematic storytelling rather than flashy gimmicks. • Transitions: smooth and subtle so the narrative flows naturally. • Colour work: natural, realistic grading that preserves true-to-life skin tones while giving the image a polished finish. Essential touches – Crisp subtitles burned in (accurate, well-timed, and on-brand). – Trending, royalty-free music beds or sound design that elevate the mood. – Strategic use of cinematic effects (speed ramps, light leaks, gentle film grain, etc.) when they genuinely support the story. Technical specs • Format: 1080 × 1920 vertical, H.264 .mp4. • Duration: up to 60 seconds per clip. • Deliverables: final mastered file plus an editable project file (Premiere Pro, Final Cut, or DaVinci Resolve—use whichever you prefer). Please build in at least one round of revisions so we can fine-tune pacing, text placement, or any colour tweaks. If this sounds like your wheelhouse, show me a sample of similar work and outline your typical turnaround per reel/short. Looking forward to collaborating and keeping my audience glued to the screen! Budget: INR 750–1250
