Hello everyone.
I’m Jyotirmoy, a narrative film editor working on short films, documentaries, and long-form projects.
I’ve trained at FTII and NYFA, and have worked on projects released on platforms like Netflix and Amazon.
My focus is story structure.
That’s where the edit begins for me.
I spend most of my time breaking a film before it’s ever polished.
Long line-ups.
Hard decisions early.
So the film holds when it finally meets an audience.
Here to connect with directors and producers working on story-driven films.
Also here to learn from how others approach the craft.

The Freelancer balancing a 9-5 Starter Pack 💼
Since 2020 doing both, full time job and freelancing, and these are my NON NEGOTIABLE:
• A contract that protects my work and mental health. 📝
• Motivational Spotify playlists that help me get through the working hours. 🎧
• A pricing sheet that answers before I overthink. 🤑
• Brandbook and presentation templates to deliver fast without reinventing the wheel. ⚡
• ChatGPT trained on my pricing sheet and my tone to write emails while I do my laundry. 🧠
Freelancing for me is boundaries, saving money for personal goals, and switching Slack accounts like it’s a personality disorder. 🤭

Behind every freelancer is their non-negotiable toolkit.
Some things are essential for execution, while others… are mostly emotional support.😂 🐈
The most important part of my toolkit - that helps me execute and manage my projects- is my systems. It was the game-changer in my freelance career. 🖌️
What would you recommend in your toolkit?
Goat for the cat 😂🫶🏻
Then next revision request: “maybe we change everything?”
Back to “I hate my life” speedrun 😂
