Michael + Susana’s wedding is one of those edits that feels like breathing fresh air ૮₍˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶₎ა ♡☆.*
A cliffside ceremony with the ocean doing its own soundtrack 〰〰〰 ✧ handwritten vows (soft + real) ︶꒦꒷♡꒷꒦︶ and the kind of laughter you can’t fake ˚₊· ͟͟͞͞➳❥
I loved shaping this into a simple, cinematic story: clean pacing ✂︎✧ natural audio moments ᵕ̈♡ and a mix of crisp color + dreamy black & white portraits ୨୧⋆。˚ that match the wind-in-the-veil energy ✧˖°
Favorite details: the bouquet on the rocks ✿⟡ family in vibrant traditional outfits ☆★ and that wide shot where they’re tiny against the coastline (instant film still) ⌁⌁ ⊹₊˚♡

☆:.。. AMANDA + CHARLIE / WEDDING REEL .。.:☆
A little love capsule from their day ︶︶︶⟡ bridal morning giggles + dress details → mirror moment → that quiet “about to walk in” energy → vows from the back row → then straight into the dancefloor chaos (confetti + hands in the air) ✦
Edited with a nostalgic touch: film-frame overlays, soft cinematic grading, tight pacing + emotion-first cuts, so it feels like a memory you can rewatch, not just a recap.
⋆。゚☁︎ if you’re looking for wedding edits that feel intimate + timeless (with a little party sparkle), I’m here ⊹☆
Hey Contra fam ✿✿✿✿✿ jumping on #contraquest ✿
I’m Mont Carver ♡ a Mexico City–born creative based in Madrid. I work across video editing, filmmaking, photography, and AI-assisted visual art (yes, I love a good hybrid workflow ♡).
I’m obsessed with story + mood + rhythm ♡ whether it’s a cinematic short-form edit, an actor character study, a beauty campaign BTS, or Midjourney experiments turned into motion ✧₊˚
This year I’m here to collaborate more, learn faster, and make work that feels real and weirdly beautiful ★
Say hi + tell me what you do! ୨୧

This is my submission, EditorialGen. I created
a fictive Envato AI tool that focuses on the concept of Human by Design to turn
your plain photos into editorial-worth artwork. EditorialGen was born through the
fusion of ImageGen and VideoGen, two tools that I use daily on all sorts of
projects, both for the projects of my clients and my own. This tool allows you
to implement your human judgment at each step of the process in order to
achieve art that is truly HUMAN and shares your identity and talent. Made with
the assistance of the most specific features for your editorial photography.
Please watch till the end. And also watch the video of my creative process. You
will LAUGH and maybe learn something.
Don’t forget to hit that upgoat button! 🐐
I want to thank Contra and Envato, and everybody who participates in this
challenge. And I am grateful for extending the duration of the challenge. I
needed all the extra time, as you can tell by my late submission.
Enjoy and good luck to all participants!
Best,
Dan

Viral Comedy Reels for Sundeep Fernandes
I edited a series of high-energy short-form videos for Sundeep Fernandes, transforming everyday topics into entertaining, highly shareable social media content.
The focus was on maximizing audience retention through fast-paced editing, comedic timing, and a constant stream of visual surprises. Each video combined memes, animated GIFs, sound effects, motion graphics, AI-generated images and videos, zooms, visual gags, and pop culture references to keep viewers engaged from the first second to the last.
Rather than relying on effects alone, every edit was built around storytelling and rhythm—using humor to reinforce the message while creating a fun, memorable viewing experience that encouraged viewers to keep watching and share the content.

Viral Educational Reels | Hannah Fry (BBC)
I collaborated with BBC mathematician and science communicator Hannah Fry to edit engaging short-form videos covering science, mathematics, animals, technology, and fascinating real-world facts.
The challenge wasn't simply to shorten long-form content—it was to transform complex educational topics into highly entertaining videos that could capture attention within seconds and keep viewers watching until the very end.
To achieve this, I combined fast-paced storytelling, creative motion graphics, dynamic captions, sound design, memes, pop culture references, animated GIFs, visual effects, and comedic timing without ever distracting from the educational message.
Many of the videos reached hundreds of thousands of viewers, proving that informative content can be just as engaging and shareable as entertainment when it's edited with the right pacing and creativity.

Teaser for the Spanish bestseller "La mala hija" by Pedro Martí (Publisher: Destino).
This teaser was a bit tricky to do, even though it might look simple and natural. The small challenge was to reproduce the exact same eye displayed on the cover, while giving it a natural, organic movement. So, the process involved taking several videos of my own eye (I preferred to control the acting). I also prepared the blue eye texture from the cover to replace my own. I matched the eye movement from my video with a 3D modeled eyeball—textured with the retouched eye—and composited it over the ad. The lens deformation completes the effect.
