About this service

Summary

Attention to detail.

Constant progress and respectful communication, professionalism and all my interest.

A high compromise with the project and the client. I'm aware that compromise and responsibility as well as willingness to deliver a high quality result, is as important as technical skills and experience. I'm a one-man team postproduction service!

Process

All the footage well organized, in specific folders with proper namings.

I pay special attention to the requirements of the project and reach out in case of any questions in order to make sure I get the whole idea straight.

If possible, I also communicate ideas and tips based on my expertise to make sure the project reaches the best possible heights of quality and charm.

I look for references that may give me a better understanding of the type of video desired

I will also gather different tools and elements that could help me with the process and I start the video editing process.

Keeping a backup of each day of work, taking notes on feedback, asking questions if required, proposing ideas or methods.

Label the elements within the project to make sure it's understandable not only for me but for any other individual that may need to use the project.

I do the exports and renders based on evidence and guidelines made available by the platforms where the video will be published to make sure it fits properly.

I ask for feedback to make sure my next workflow is even more professional!

FAQs

Which software do I use?
I use a lot of software depending on the needs of the project. Mainly the whole Adobe Suite, but also DaVinci Resolve, Ableton Live, Blender and even AI software to enhance quality and adapt the footage to the needs of the project.
How long does it take?
It entirely depends on the project needs, as there are some projects that require an extensive and careful amount of cuts and layers of the material. Reach me out with information on your project so I can provide a better insight of the process!
How much experience I have in the field?
I have worked as a video editor / Post Producer for several years now, I have done video editing for TV ads, commercials, social media, Music Videos and more!
Why me over other professionals?
My philosophy of life consists in not only offering my skills and knowledge but also my willingness to help, my never ending curiosity to find new ways of doing things when it's necessary. I worked several years as well as a customer service representative and mentor, so I'm well aware of how important for you is to feel that you're not talking to a wall, but to an actual person willing to really help and listen your demands, a professional interested in working for your interests using all his expertise. Also, I know a lot about hardware / software and troubleshooting, sometimes obstacles may rise and knowing how to fix them is very important. I love technology!

What's included

Uncompressed finished video
I will provide if necessary, the uncompressed version of the video edited by layers (Video, graphics, VFX, etc) as well as music layers (Voice, music, SFX)
Exports for desired and agreed platforms
I will provide the exports of the video specifically coded and compressed depending to the platform you need your content for (TV, Youtube, Instagram, TikTok, etc...) This is in order to avoid the platforms performing their own compression to avoid any bitrate of quality loss.
Project files and external elements used
If necessary, I will provide the project file where the project can be edited, as well a package with all the elements used during the video editing process (Graphics, SFX, icons, animations, alpha elements, compositing layers, any additional footage). This is to make sure that if any other editor needs to work on the same project or wants to copy the structure I used, it's easier for you as client to achieve that effortlessly.
