Video editor at your service!

Your footage is in good hands


As a freelance film editor, I love the fact that video consumption is on the rise. According to a recent study (Cisco, 2019), 82 percent of global internet traffic will come from video streaming and downloads by the year 2022.

Video is more than a statistic for me, though. It’s an art form!

Whether drama, documentary, commercial film or wedding video, I see how much care and creativity goes into the creation of each shot. I apply the same passion to my craft. What’s more, I respect your vision and do my best to help you achieve it. Your footage is in good hands with me.

Freelance video editing: Step by Step

Your path from raw footage to finished edit…

  • Are you working on a short film? Do you have the material for a commercial project? Have you captured lovely wedding footage? Let’s chat about how I can help you.

  • Once you decide to hire me as your video editor, we sign an agreement which symbolises the official start of my work.

  • Most clients like to use cloud storage services like Google Drive, Dropbox or WeTransfer. Of course you can also send me hard drives via post!

  • Now you can lean back and relax while I dive into the footage. Depending on your wishes, you will provide feedback and request changes or adjustments. My goal is to deliver a perfect edit to you, so I’m happy to polish until we’re there.

  • Once you’re happy with the final edit, I export the video file for you in the format(s) you require. Now you can send them to clients, embed them online, or add your own tweaks and adjustments.

That’s it! The details of the video editing process are up to you. My job is to adapt to your workflow and rhythm: My video editing is a bespoke service that is uniquely tailored to you and your needs. The case studies on my site offer a more detailed glimpse into how other clients and I have collaborated.
