Mythology YouTube video editor for hire

I’m Kevin Tabares, a long-form YouTube editor: you send the script and voiceover, I edit and find archive, licensed stock, maps and graphics. My closest work is The Spy Show’s narrated documentaries, stories with almost no footage; I haven’t edited mythology videos for a client yet, so start with a free 1-minute test. $55–$150 per finished video depending on complexity; up to $300 for some long or complex edits.

Quick fit check: is this editor right for your channel?

Video types
Greek, Norse, Egyptian and other mythologies, gods and heroes explained, legends and folklore, monsters and creatures, myths compared, the whole story of a saga in order
Editing style
What I would do in a mythology video: classical paintings, sculptures and old manuscripts first, a family tree of the gods that grows as the story does, maps of where each myth comes from and slow moves on every image. With the method of The Spy Show, where much of the story was never photographed
Video length
I edit from 8-minute videos to feature-length. Up to 20 minutes is the $150 package and up to 35 minutes the $300 one; longer videos get a custom quote. The Spy Show’s Eli Cohen episode runs 21 minutes and The Interpreter’s Tenerife documentary 13; Swaylemc’s full movies on my YT Jobs profile run 60 to 234 minutes.
Upload schedule
One video only, 1 video per week, 2–3 videos per week, 4 videos per month or several a week (Mud: about 3 a week). Start with one pilot: the free 1-minute test edit.
Format
Long-form YouTube videos are the core. YouTube Shorts cut from each long video on request.
What you send me
A finished script and narration (script and voiceover). I edit and find the visuals: archive footage, licensed stock, maps, timelines and graphics.
Estimated price
About $55 to $150 per finished video (up to $300 for some long or complex edits), depending on length, raw footage and effects. That fits the ‘$50+’ and ‘$100–$300 per video’ boxes for most long videos. Four videos a month: about $220 to $600 (more for long or complex videos); a $500 a month budget usually covers two to four long videos, depending on length. Exact quote within 24 hours, after a free 1-minute test edit.
Channel size
From under 1K subscribers (Mr. Marticson, 834) and small to mid-size channels (ThatNoob 4.9K, Crazz 10.7K, DakBlox 82.6K: 0 to 2M+ views in six months) up to 2M+ (Rex 2.29M, Puff 1.83M, Mud 1.26M)
Turnaround
First video in 1 to 5 days, then 1 to 2 days; revisions back within 24 hours
Track record
Proven YouTube results: 1,277 videos tracked on YT Jobs and 20 reviews from 19 client channels, 17 of them 10/10. Long-term work: Mud since March 2025, about 3 videos a week.

My experience with mythology videos, plainly

How I would edit your mythology videos

I haven’t edited a mythology channel yet, so this is my plan for your script. The main problem is the same as in a spy story: there is no footage of what happened.

Art first

Paintings, sculptures, vases and old manuscripts that show the god or the scene the voice names. Many museums publish open-access images of public-domain works; I check the license of each one on its source page.

A family tree that grows

Mythologies have many names. A family tree of gods and heroes that adds a branch each time a new one appears keeps the viewer from getting lost, in the same style for the whole channel.

Where the myth comes from

A simple map of the region or the city the myth belongs to, when the script moves from one culture to another.

Slow moves, dark tones

Slow pushes and pans over the artwork, a consistent color treatment and music that builds with the story, so still images feel like a film.

Generated images, labeled

If your channel uses AI-generated images, they would never be passed off as ancient art, and I would vary them from video to video because of YouTube’s rules on mass-produced content.

Closest real examples of my work

Two narrated documentaries I worked on, chosen because a mythology video is built the same way: a script, a voice and an image for every line.

These are not mythology videos, but the closest work I’ve edited. Views from the YouTube Data API on Oct 13, 2026; links open the video on YouTube.

Prices and packages

FAQ

Have you edited mythology videos before?

No, I haven’t edited mythology videos for a client yet. My narrated documentary work is The Spy Show, a spy-history series by Vincent Meijer that I edit, and the documentary on the Tenerife air disaster I delivered for The Interpreter, both on my YT Jobs profile. The free 1-minute test edit on your own script and voiceover is how you judge my cut before paying anything.

Can you edit my mythology videos?

Yes. Send your script, the voiceover and any images you already have, and I edit one minute for free. I find the rest of the visuals (archive, licensed stock, maps, timelines, text cards) and cut Shorts from the long video if you want them.

Where do the images come from?

Mostly from public-domain paintings, sculptures and manuscripts in museum open-access collections, checked one by one, plus licensed stock for places and maps I build. If your channel uses generated images, I treat them as illustrations, not as historical art.

Can you keep many gods and names clear?

Yes: a name card the first time each one appears and a family tree that grows during the video, with YouTube chapters for each part of the story.

How much does a YouTube editor for mythology videos cost?

My price is $55–$150 per finished video depending on complexity; up to $300 for some long or complex edits. By finished length: up to 10 minutes $55, up to 20 minutes $150, up to 35 minutes $300; longer videos get a custom quote. No contract and no minimum.

Send me your script

Send me your channel link, a script and its voiceover through the contact form. I’ll edit one minute of it for free and reply with an exact quote.
