Hey everyone,
I'm looking for a long-form YouTube video editor to work with me on a new Marvel Rivals channel.
I'm starting fresh on YouTube, but I have a clear direction for the type of content I want to make. I'm looking for someone who isn't just interested in editing one video, but would be interested in becoming a long-term creative partner as the channel grows.
About the Content
The channel will focus on creative, entertaining Marvel Rivals videos, rather than standard gameplay or montages.
Some of the concepts I'm working toward include:
- Challenge-based videos
- Custom game modes and competitions
- Game-show-style videos
- Team-based challenges
- Punishment/challenge videos
- Community-focused concepts
- Other creative formats built around Marvel Rivals
The goal is to make videos that feel like YouTube entertainment, where the editing supports the story, comedy, pacing, and personality of the video.

Attached is a 3 min piece of raw footage of an upcoming youtube video. Feel free to tell me how you would impact this piece and what edits you would make!
What I'm Looking For
I'm looking for an editor who understands long-form YouTube content and retention, not just someone who can make gameplay look flashy.
Ideally, you have experience with:
- Gaming YouTube videos
- Long-form content
- Comedy/editing timing
- Pacing and storytelling
- Subtitles and on-screen text
- Sound effects and music
- Memes and visual jokes when appropriate
- Knowing when to cut and when to let a moment play out
- Making raw gameplay footage feel engaging
- Understanding YouTube audience retention
You don't need to go crazy with effects. Good editing decisions are more important to me than constant effects and transitions.
Pay
I'm offering $100–$150 per long-form video, depending on the length and complexity.
I'm also interested in creating a performance-based bonus structure as the channel grows.
My goal is for this to work like a partnership:
Channel grows → editor's compensation grows.
As the channel starts generating revenue and getting larger, I want the editor who helped build it with me to benefit from that growth.
I'm open to discussing bonuses based on things like video performance, channel milestones, or increased workload.
Long-Term Opportunity
I'm not looking for someone to edit one video and disappear.
I'm looking for someone I can work with every week and build a consistent editing style with.
I'm starting from zero, so there obviously isn't a massive channel or guaranteed income right now. What I can offer is the opportunity to grow alongside the channel from the beginning.
If we work well together and the channel starts taking off, I want your pay and opportunities to increase with it.
I'd rather find one great editor and build a long-term working relationship than constantly hire different people.
What I'd Like From Applicants
Please send me:
- Your portfolio/reel
- 1–3 examples of your best long-form gaming edits
- Your experience with YouTube/gaming content
- Your typical turnaround time
- Your rate for a video in the $100–$150 range
- What editing software you use
- A short explanation of what you think makes a good gaming YouTube video
If you have experience with Marvel Rivals specifically, that's a plus, but it isn't required.
I'm more interested in your editing ability, creativity, reliability, and whether we work well together.
Trial
I'm happy to start with a paid test edit so both of us can see if we're a good fit before committing to a long-term arrangement.
If you're interested, DM me with your portfolio and some examples of your work.
I'm looking forward to finding someone who wants to build something together from the ground up.
