Creatual is a contest app for connecting YouTube creators with video editors. Creators can post contests with raw video footage they want edited, and editors can compete in the contest by uploading their edits (as an entry into the contest).
Hey Product Hunt!
I built a marketplace for newly-growing YouTubers who are in need of video editors, but don't yet have a network of video editors they can hire for their videos.
The app is also geared for new video editors who are looking to build out their portfolio and land new jobs when they're starting out.
Creatual is a contest platform that connects the two.
With Creatual, a creator can:
1. Launch a contest with a video editing brief. Submit requirements for editing style and preferences, and upload their raw video file.
2. Review submissions from video editors looking to participate in the contest, and provide feedback.
3. Select a winner from the pool of entries. The creator will receive the final edited video file and pay the winner.
Excited to hear what you think!

Woooo! Congrats on the launch!
Somewhat Adjacent to the YT space these days, this looks neat.
Couple of questions - (Not hating, love the idea, just curious)
Is there any plans for reduced cost in the early days to build testimonials/proof of work?
"Each project costs a flat rate of $249.99, collected once a winner is selected for your contest."
$249 felt a bit steep for me personally. I'm also curious if I need to pay the editor on top of this. (Would willingly pay for this on a platform w/proven editors, etc)
"geared for new video editors who are looking to build out their portfolio and land new jobs when they're starting out"
Curious where they are sourced from/if you're manually sourcing?
Followed your twitter, excited to see where this goes! Congrats again.
@esus Thanks! And very valuable input.
Something I've been thinking about is creating tiered pricing for length of the video IE: lower price for just a 5 min video, middle-tiered pricing for 10 min, etc. Curious on your thoughts on that.
To answer your second question, the $249.99 goes to the editor, less a 10% fee that Creatual collects for hosting the videos, running the business etc.
Hope that makes sense, and thanks again!
Creatual sounds like a fantastic platform bridging the gap for YouTubers and video editors. It's a win-win for creators and editors. Looking forward to its impact! 👏🎥 #CreatualLaunch
