Think about viewer experience and flow, not just visuals
Can take a structured concept and make it feel engaging and watchable throughout
Have worked on challenge-based formats or performance-driven YouTube content
Are proficient in motion design and graphics
Rate: $6,000 flat (per video)
Edit kickoff: Targeting week of May 18 (may shift slightly with production)
