Job Description
I'm looking for someone to join a growing police bodycam YouTube channel long-term.
This is more than just cutting footage. I'm looking for someone who can help take a case from raw bodycam footage → story → script → finished YouTube video.
Style references:
Midwest Safety
Code Blue Cam
If you aren't familiar with those channels, please watch some of their videos before applying. That's the level/style of storytelling and pacing we're working toward.
THE WORKFLOW
I provide you with the raw bodycam footage/case.
You:
Watch through the footage
Find the most important/interesting moments
Determine the best way to tell the story
Cut out unnecessary/dead footage
Write the narration/script
Send me the script
I record the voiceover and send it back.
You then:
Add the voiceover
Finish the edit
Build the story around the narration
Add music/sound design where appropriate
Add text, zooms, highlights, freeze frames, etc. where they improve the video
Censor/blur sensitive information where needed
Clean up audio
Export the finished long-form video
Create short vertical clips from the finished video
Then we move straight into the next case.
OUTPUT
The goal is approximately 3–5 long-form videos per week, depending on the length and complexity of the footage, plus clips from those videos.
This is intended to become a consistent, long-term position.
Starting pay: $250 USD/month
As the channel grows and you prove that you can consistently create strong videos, there will be opportunities for increased pay and responsibility.
WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR
I care much more about your actual editing/storytelling ability than your résumé.
You should:
Understand YouTube viewer retention
Understand storytelling and pacing
Be comfortable watching large amounts of police bodycam footage
Be able to identify what parts of a case actually matter
Write clear English narration
Understand the editing style of Midwest Safety / Code Blue Cam
Communicate reliably
Meet deadlines
Be interested in working together long-term
Requirements
Strong long-form video editing and storytelling skills
Familiar with the pacing/style of Midwest Safety and Code Blue Cam
Able to review raw bodycam footage and identify the strongest story moments
Able to write clear, natural English narration/scripts
Experience with Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut, or similar professional editing software
Good understanding of YouTube retention, pacing, sound design, and viewer engagement
Able to add clean text, zooms, highlights, freeze frames, music, and censoring when needed
Reliable internet connection for downloading/uploading large video files
Consistent communication and ability to meet deadlines
Comfortable working with police/bodycam and true-crime footage
Available for ongoing weekly work
