Hiring a Video Editor
Check out their experience/number of hours worked
Read reviews from their previous clients
Hire two editors! Then see who you fits into your team better
Be prepared to manage your editor
Allow time for uploading and downloading your files
- Can I please see your portfolio?
- How many hours do you have available to work?
- How quickly can you get my video finished?
Communicating with Your Video Editor
Set time frames and expectations
- eg: “The first draft of this video needs to be delivered to me within 48 hours, by Wednesday at 5pm Sydney time”
Give very clear descriptions and sample videos you like
- Intro / Outro
- Animated Logo
- Lower Thirds – Names and Positions
- Background Music Style (and how often)
- Call To Action
- Fonts, Colours, Branding Elements
- Graphics on Screen
Create a spreadsheet with clearly labelled video numbers (if you are shooting multiple videos)
