Hire a video editor

Hire a video editor without the guesswork.

Hire a vetted U.S. video editor through Popcut. We match you with a pro editor — brand, social, YouTube, ads, or corporate — and handle contracts, revisions, and delivery. See a first cut in days.

Vetted, not random

Every editor is U.S.-based, referral-sourced, and portfolio-reviewed — they've cut for brands like Netflix, Google, and Nike. You interview your match before work starts.

Matched to your work

Tell us the format and vibe; we pair you with an editor who specializes in it — short-form, YouTube, VFX, ads, or corporate — instead of a generalist.

Handled end to end

Contracts, invoicing, storage, review links, and a dedicated project manager are all included. You focus on the creative; we run the logistics.

Fast and flexible

First cuts in days, unlimited revisions until it's right, and the ability to scale from one video to a weekly slate — no rehiring.

FAQ

Hiring a video editor, answered.

How do I hire a video editor with Popcut?

Book a strategy call and share your brief, footage, and timeline. We match you with a vetted editor whose style fits your project, you approve the match, and you get a first cut within days.

How much does it cost to hire a video editor?

It depends on scope, format, and turnaround. Popcut scopes each project up front with clear, fixed pricing — no hourly surprises — and you can scale up or down between projects. Book a call for a quote on your specific work.

Can I work with the same editor across projects?

Yes. Once you find an editor you like, you can keep working with them across projects so they build context on your brand — or switch any time if your needs change.

What kinds of video can Popcut editors handle?

Brand and social content, YouTube and long-form, short-form reels, ads and commercials, corporate and event video, sizzle reels, and VFX/motion work. We match you to a specialist for your format.

What if I'm not happy with the edit?

You get unlimited revisions until the cut is right, and if an editor isn't the right fit you can switch to another in the marketplace.
