About this service

Summary

I have been editing news story style videos for a reputable news outlet for over 10 years. Which means a lot of my editing has been in the style of quick packaged news stories with b-roll and lower thirds.
My overall experience in editing is close to 20 years. Which also means I can be versatile in different editing styles.
Because I have edited hundreds of short news stories in a quick turnaround, I can be that reliable video editor that can get a video done in a relatively short time period.

FAQs

  • What kind of videos do you edit?

    I specialize in story-driven content like news-style videos, YouTube episodes, interviews, social clips, and branded content. If you have footage and a goal, I’ll help shape it into a clean, engaging final product.

  • What do you need from me to get started?

    I’ll need your raw footage, any voiceovers, logos, branding assets (if applicable), and a script if you have one. A quick description of your audience and the goal of the video also helps a lot!

  • How long does it take to complete a video?

    Turnaround depends on video length and complexity. For a typical 2–5 minute edit, I deliver the first draft within 3–5 business days. Rush delivery is available—just let me know!

  • Do you add subtitles or captions?

    Yes! I can include accurate subtitles or burned-in captions upon request. Just let me know at the start of the project.

  • Can you add music, B-roll, or motion graphics?

    Absolutely. I can add licensed music, relevant B-roll (from stock or yours), and basic motion graphics like lower thirds or titles.

  • What if I need revisions?

    One round of revisions is included with every project. If you need more, I’m happy to provide them at a fair additional rate.

  • What formats will I receive the final video in?

    I typically deliver in 1080p MP4 unless you request otherwise. I can also provide vertical or square formats for social media.

  • Do you offer ongoing editing services?

    Yes! If you have a series, channel, or recurring content needs, I offer discounted package rates for long-term or batch projects.
