Hello,
I am bidding low on this because I am still developing my portfolio, but I am an experience video editor that will give you a very professional video.
For the images of your Wife's parents, I was thinking that I could use the "Ken Burns Effect" to animate the pictures, helping them feel more like slow motion videos than still images. (If you google ken burns effect, keep in mind that I would use it subtly.) If there is anything else you have in mind, I will be able to create and composite any effects, text, or graphics you like.
From my understanding, you have footage sent from family members wishing a happy birthday, I will make sure that their audio is professional leveled, and consistently audible at the highest quality. So I will remove as much background noise as possible while boosting voices. I will also make sure all footage is scaled and colored correctly.
I have samples in my portfolio, showing custom videos that I have made as a freelancer. I also have received only five star reviews, I pay attention to the smallest details and take deadlines seriously.
Your project will be my only priority, and I would love to earn another good review.
Please contact me if you have any questions,
Vive
