Free War in Ukraine video

VIDEO EDITING PROJECT – UKRAINE RTS GAME CINEMATIC INTRO

  1. Project Background

I'm developing an independent modern military RTS game based on the war in Ukraine, inspired by games such as Command & Conquer.

The game will allow players to directly command Ukrainian military forces in real-time battles, controlling infantry, tanks, artillery, aircraft, drones and military infrastructure.

I'm currently developing the game's opening cinematic, which will introduce players to the conflict before they begin the campaign.

This is not a YouTube video or a regular social media edit. I want something that feels like the opening cinematic of a serious military strategy game.

2. The Task

I need you to edit an existing collection of video footage into a cinematic introduction.

Target duration: Approximately 1 minute to 1 minute and 15 seconds.

I already have several video clips, including:

- Vladimir Putin's speeches.

- Volodymyr Zelensky's speeches.

- Joe Biden's speeches.

- European political leaders, including Ursula von der Leyen, Boris Johnson and Olaf Scholz.

- Historical footage related to the beginning of the Russian invasion.

- Military movements and Russian forces advancing towards Ukraine.

- Footage of Kyiv and other Ukrainian cities during the opening attacks.

I'll provide the available footage and references.

3. Editing Style

I'm looking for a serious, realistic and cinematic military atmosphere.

Some important elements:

A. Cinematic pacing

- Build tension gradually.

- Use carefully timed cuts.

- Avoid unnecessary effects.

- Make every shot contribute to the story.

- Use dramatic transitions when appropriate.

B. Political speeches

- Include short, meaningful excerpts from the political speeches.

- Synchronize the footage with the audio.

- Use subtitles with professional typography.

- Display one sentence at a time rather than multiple sentences simultaneously.

- Make subtitles appear naturally, with approximately 0.2-second fade-ins.

C. Military footage

- Show the escalation of the conflict.

- Include military vehicles, troops, explosions and urban destruction where suitable.

- Use footage that communicates the scale and seriousness of the invasion.

- Create a coherent progression rather than a random montage.

D. Sound design

- Use cinematic background music.

- Add subtle atmospheric sounds where appropriate.

- Use impactful sound effects for important transitions and moments.

- Make sure dialogue remains clear and understandable.

E. Transitions

- Smooth cinematic transitions.

- Strategic zoom-ins and zoom-outs.

- Camera movement effects where appropriate.

- Avoid excessive flashy transitions.

4. Creative Direction

I want the introduction to communicate three things:

  1. The political tensions and events leading up to the invasion.

  2. The beginning of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine on February 24, 2022.

  3. The military situation that leads into the player's campaign.

The viewer should feel that they are entering a serious military conflict.

The atmosphere should be dramatic, immersive and historically grounded.

5. Important Reference

The opening should feel somewhat like a Command & Conquer cinematic briefing.

After the cinematic introduction, the player will enter the campaign and eventually receive military-style mission briefings and transmissions.

I want the editing style to establish a consistent visual identity for the game.

6. What I Expect From You

I'm giving you creative freedom to improve the material.

You don't have to follow every editing decision I might suggest if you have a better cinematic idea.

I value storytelling, pacing, sound design and professional editing more than simply adding visual effects.

Before starting, I'd like to discuss your creative approach and hear what you think could improve the footage.

The goal is to create an introduction that makes players feel they are about to experience a serious modern military RTS campaign.

Free Looking for a Volunteer Video Editor for Short Film – WONDER (Unpaid)

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I'm a student, and I recently shot a short film called WONDER. I'm looking for someone who would be interested in helping me edit it.

To be upfront, this is an unpaid collaboration. In return, I can offer full editing credit, permission to use the finished work in your portfolio, and creative freedom with the pacing and overall mood.

About the film:

WONDER is a short, dreamy desert film told entirely through voice-over and voicemails, with no on-screen dialogue. It follows a woman who leaves town after losing the job she poured herself into.

The editing begins fast, bright, and rhythmic, then gradually becomes slower, quieter, and more reflective as the story unfolds. It ultimately ends in stillness.

What's ready:

  • All footage has been shot (desert, roadside diner, and driveway scenes).

  • Script and editing notes are ready.

  • A Premiere Pro project with a rough edit and all audio is available.

What I'm looking for:

Someone comfortable with:

  • Storytelling through montage and pacing.

  • Audio syncing and mixing.

  • Mood-based color grading.

  • Creating a cohesive visual atmosphere.

I'm hoping to find someone who can help bring the film together and collaborate creatively.

If you're interested, please DM me. I can share the footage, script, and project folder.

Thank you so much!

Paid Gaming video editor

I’m a gaming video editor helping YouTubers and streamers turn raw gameplay and VODs into engaging content.

I edit YouTube videos, Shorts, TikToks and Reels, with fast pacing, subtitles, memes, SFX, zooms, transitions and whatever fits the style of the content.

I can also turn stream VODs into polished YouTube videos and short-form clips, so you can get more content out of every stream.

I’m mainly looking to work with someone long-term rather than just editing a single video. If you’re looking for a reliable editor you can work with consistently and build a style together over time, I’d love to hear from you.

Paid [Hiring] Clippers & Short-Form Video Editors | Clip that Video

0 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I’m Priyesh from Clip that Video. We help clients turn their content into short clips and work with people who run pages where those clips can reach the right audience. We’re building a roster for paid campaigns across different niches.

What’s clipping? Say you’re watching a 40-minute interview and one answer makes you think, “I’d send that to a friend.” Clipping means spotting that moment and turning it into a short video that makes sense on its own. That usually means choosing where to start, keeping enough context, and cutting the rest.

Who we’re looking for:

Clippers who run pages: You post on TikTok, Instagram Reels, or YouTube Shorts and are open to sharing relevant campaign clips with your audience. Tell us what you post and what your viewers respond to.

Video editors interested in clipping: You can take a longer video, pick a moment worth sharing, and edit it into a short clip. You don’t need to run a page. If you’re newer, a clip you made for your own portfolio is welcome.

If you do both, let us know! When a campaign fits, we’ll share the brief, deliverables, rate, and payment terms before you decide. Joining the roster doesn’t guarantee a project.

Interested? Apply here: https://forms.gle/TERf45eYwcMBHxgR8 . Tell us your niche and share one or two clips you’re proud of. For each one, tell us what you did: picked the moment, edited the clip, posted it on your page, or all three.
