I’m an independent horror writer-director seeking a skilled video editor to finish a 60-second trailer for my psychological tech-horror short film, MUTED. This is a paid test project — if it goes well, there’s ongoing work editing the full film and three additional films in the same anthology series. What’s already done: The trailer is fully designed — I have a clear beat-by-beat structure and most of the opening footage already assembled (the phone-call scenes are cut and in place). You’ll be finishing the assembly, not starting from scratch. What I need you to do: • Assemble the remaining clips into the trailer following my provided structure/brief • Create a digital “glitch” effect for a key transition moment (screen distortion/corruption — this is the signature visual beat) • Sound: clean up and balance dialogue audio (one character’s camera audio is low and needs attention), add tension/sound design, and deliver a polished trailer mix • Light color adjustment so clips match (full film color is handled separately by my colorist — I just need the trailer looking clean and consistent) • Add simple text/title cards at the end (title + release date) Footage details: • Shot on Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera 4K, BRAW format • Edited in Premiere Pro (please be comfortable working in Premiere and able to deliver a project file) • I’ll provide footage, my structure brief, and the partial timeline Deliverables: • Final 60-second trailer (1080p, plus a vertical 9:16 version for social if possible) • Premiere project file • Clean export ready for YouTube Timeline: Fast turnaround needed — please note your availability and earliest delivery in your bid. To apply: Please share 1–2 samples of trailers or short-form work you’ve edited (horror or narrative a plus), confirm you can work with BRAW in Premiere, and give me your quote and turnaround time for this 60-second trailer. This is the first of several projects — I’m looking for an editor I can build a working relationship with across the series. Looking forward to seeing your work!

A horror trailer lives or dies in the edit. The footage can be great, but if the rhythm is off by even a few seconds, the tension disappears. ⭐️⭐️ Complete Portfolio Link ⭐️⭐️ https://www.freelancer.com/u/samang1?frm=samang1&sb=t What caught my attention is that you've already done the hardest part — the structure is there, the opening is assembled, and you know exactly what the trailer needs to achieve. My focus would be on building tension between the beats you've already designed, making the glitch moment feel intentional rather than gimmicky, and using sound to quietly increase anxiety before the final payoff. I work in Premiere Pro regularly and I'm comfortable handling dialogue cleanup, trailer pacing, sound design, motion titles and final delivery. Since this is a psychological horror piece, I'd treat silence and timing as carefully as the visuals themselves. The fact that this could lead into the feature and the rest of the anthology makes it even more interesting because consistency across projects matters just as much as the trailer itself. One question — is the glitch effect supposed to feel technological, supernatural, or psychologically distorted? That choice alone can completely change how the audience interprets the trailer. Saman
