AI video services for local businesses — Upwork's fastest-growing skill (+329%)

Rates run $50–120/hour, with Quartz citing $100+/hour for AI video editors. The winning angle: clients pay for judgment turning a rough brief into usable video, not for tool access — doing it badly just races prices to the bottom.
