About

I am launching a long-term YouTube channel called The Wealth Plot.
The channel focuses on socio-economic analysis of modern relationships, marriage, incentives, fertility, and institutional risk.
This is NOT a "manosphere rant" channel.
It is a calm, intellectual, documentary-style channel.
Reference for Narrative Tone (Content Structure)
The narrative pacing and intellectual tone should feel similar to:
Not the ideology —
but the structure:
• Slow build
• Calm but serious delivery
• Structured argument
• Clear sections
• Strong intro hook
• Civilizational framing
Again:
We are NOT copying content.
We are matching documentary pacing and seriousness.
Reference for Visual Style Direction
The visual aesthetic should feel inspired by the minimal documentary style seen between:
and
BUT instead of stock footage:
I want a minimal animated version.
No stock spam.
No generic B-roll.
Instead:
• Dark background (charcoal / deep navy)
• White or soft gold line drawing animations
• Simple animated diagrams
• Graph reveals
• Minimal motion graphics
• Clean typography
• Slow pacing
• Calm transitions
Think:
Minimal explainer documentary
White line drawing appearing gradually
Graphs rising slowly
Icons appearing one by one
Institutional / economic diagram style
The result should feel:
Intelligent
Minimal
Premium
Calm
What I Provide
• Full recorded voice over (9–15 minutes)
• Structured script with timing
• Visual direction notes
• Title + thumbnail concept
What I Need
A minimal animated visual layer built around the voice over.
NOT:
• Stock slideshow
• Meme editing
• Fast cuts
• Overdramatic trailer effects
• Heavy SFX
YES:
• Clean animation
• Structured diagrams
• Calm pacing
• Subtle motion
• Data visualization
• Cohesive visual identity
Episode Structure Example
Typical episode: 9–15 minutes
Structure:
Intro hook (minimal, atmospheric)
Problem framing (title card + subtle animation)
Data reveal (graph animation)
Contract / incentive explanation (diagram drawing live)
Second-order effects (system map animation)
Calm closing shot with final question
Visual rhythm must match voice pacing.
No over-editing.
Design Language
• Dark background
• White / light grey lines
• Soft gold highlight for key terms
• Clean modern sans-serif font
• No clutter
• No flashy transitions
The aesthetic must remain consistent across all episodes.
This is a long-term brand.
Audio
I provide:
• Final mastered voice over
You provide:
• Subtle background music (minimal documentary tone)
• Light ambient atmosphere if appropriate
No loud music.
No cinematic booms.
Deliverables (First Project)
• Full animated video (9–15 minutes)
• 1440p or 4K export
• Editable project file (After Effects / Premiere / DaVinci etc.)
• Clean sound mix
Budget
Starting with:
• Paid 30-second draft sample
• Then full video production
Long-term collaboration possible (3–10 videos per month).
Important
This is NOT political propaganda.
This is NOT hate content.
This is analytical socio-economic commentary.
If your editing style is flashy, hyper-fast, meme-driven, or YouTube-trend aggressive, this project is not suitable.
If you understand:
• pacing
• minimalism
• structured storytelling
• restrained motion design
We will work very well together.
When Applying, Please Send:
1 example of minimal documentary-style work
A short explanation of how you would approach this animation style
Confirmation that you can create simple line drawing animations
Optional:
You may provide a short 20–30 second draft concept (paid test).
I am building a serious long-term brand.
If we work well together, this will become a stable recurring collaboration.
To make sure you've read the full description,
please start your proposal with:
"Institutional symmetry matters."
And In 2–3 sentences, explain how you would animate a slow "risk asymmetry" concept visually using only line drawings.
Applications that don't include this line will not be reviewed.
Contract duration of less than 1 month. with 30 hours per week.
Mandatory skills: Motion Graphics, YouTube Video, Color Grading, Video Editing, 2D Animation, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, AI-Generated Video, Narrative Video
