Contest Brief

UPDATED DETAIL- FEEDBACK (1800 GMT 25th July)

I have 25 years experience in London in journalism, media, marketing, financial services and technology. In lock-down I did lots of little videos, some serious news projects and others funny and entertaining. I also created a YouTube channel and taught myself the basics of how to grow users and edit videos, but I am definitely not an expert.

I need someone who is experienced in editing videos and producing eye-catching, professional videos which i can use to promote my work. TO WIN THIS CONTEST you must produce ALL THREE of the videos needed - but you can do the detailed work on these by winning on the basis of just ONE VIDEO. The contest pays a guaranteed amount on the basis you will complete all three videos when you are chosen as the winner.

I want 3 videos, all less than 5 minutes and in high resolution with backing music and the chance to do voice-overs myself where relevant.
They must be in a format that can be used with YouTube, Twitter, Twitch, Facebook, Instagram and all the main social media outlets.

1- an introduction video for my YouTube Channel. It should include a logo or template that I can use across all my videos - an end-plate to get subscribers - and all the little animated or 2D static graphic imagery to support this.

2- a professional formal video showing my knowledge and experience as a journalist handling difficult and serious topics (like the video about cancer which is already on my channel and the video on radio 5 with Dotun Adebayo (MBE)

3- a short lighthearted video based on a montage of some of the funny moments from the existing videos on my YouTube Channel (pick the bits you find most funny)


More work will follow if the initial design, video production, editing and support is good.

Please look at my YouTube Channel first to get an idea of what I need (and please SUBSCRIBE to it as well). Search BONKERS BRAINY BRIT or https://www.youtube.com/nicolamitchell44

Also take a look at my Star Now channel; https://www.starnow.co.uk/nicmitchell This is a portal designed for actresses, movie stars and TV/Radio people

Employer Feedback

“Could never believe the quality and hard work that was put into this really tightly fought contest. But Taoussi stood out from the start with amazing attention to detail, rapid work to take on feedback and an excellent professional approach which made him a dream to work with. Highly recommended.”

    In summary, I want a short video for use on YouTube as an intro I can play about me, with a prominent call to action to get people to subecribe. I also want an End Plate that can be used at the end of every video which calls the viewer to subscribe. Finally I need the other graphics which YouTube asks for here: https://blog.snappa.com/how-to-start-a-youtube-channel/

    Some REPLIES to questions and thanks for these, ask more as it helps fine tune and get what I am looking for ... so music wise, for dramatic stuff I like VideCor Meum, most film tracks from Hans Zimmer, lively stuff from Dua Lipa, my favourite lively song is 'Aint No Mountain High Enough' by Tammy Tyrell & Marvin Gaye, love 'Feel' (Robbie WIlliams), 'Cowboys & Angels' George Michael, others you can find on my YouTube channel as there are various music links and likes on playlists - just make sure you have the legal right or license for any music otherwise my videos will be taken down,

    Some really hard working entries here, have just given my preliminary ratings and am sharing this with my business partner, who is another freelancer I met via the site. We prefer the slick, quicker changing images (selected more as professional, rather than the glamorous shots which are too revealing and give the wrong signals). Use BOLD, easy to read typeface and music with energy to keep people interested. Feel free to adapt or do a further entry if you like. Many thanks

    Hello Nic, I would love to help you with your video, but i need more material to work with, unless you are looking for somebody to record and produce your "videos in site". I have experience in video editing, sound editing, and motion graphics.
