Science and space 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 narrated documentaries with maps and diagrams; I haven’t edited science and space 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
Science explainers, astronomy and space missions, scale videos (how big is the universe), what-if scenarios, history of discoveries, biology and physics explained with simple graphics
Editing style
What I would do for science videos: one diagram per idea, numbers written on screen as the voice says them, scale comparisons that read in a second and a pause after every hard idea. Close to the diagrams and text cards I use in narrated documentaries
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 science and space videos, plainly

How I would edit your science and space videos

No science channel has sent me a script yet, so read this as my plan for your video, built on the diagrams and cards I already make for narrated documentaries.

One diagram per idea

A science script explains one thing at a time. Each idea gets its own simple diagram, built up piece by piece as the narration explains it, so the picture and the voice arrive together.

Scale that reads in a second

Distances, sizes and times in space are impossible to imagine. A side-by-side comparison with something familiar does more than any number, and I would keep one comparison style for the whole channel.

Space imagery with its license checked

Many mission photos and videos come from space agencies with their own usage terms. Each one is checked on its source page before it goes in, and the credit goes into the description.

Numbers on screen

When the voice gives a figure, it appears written, with its unit. Viewers of science channels pause to read; the number has to be there when they do.

A pause after the hard part

Fast between simple points, slower after the idea that needs thinking. The pace follows how hard the explanation is, not a fixed cut rate.

Closest real examples of my work

Two narrated documentaries I worked on, chosen for the diagrams, maps and text cards a science explainer also needs.

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

FAQ

Have you edited science and space videos before?

No, I haven’t edited science and space 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 science and space 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.

Do you make 3D animations?

3D animation is not in my portfolio: I build 2D diagrams, maps, comparisons and animated text cards. If your channel needs 3D renders, send them and I cut them into the video.

Can you check the science in my script?

The facts are yours: I edit what the script says. If an image I find contradicts a line, I tell you before using it.

How much does a YouTube editor for science and space 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.
