I handle the editing, mixing, and repurposing — so you publish on schedule with clean audio, tight pacing, and shorts that stop the scroll.

Hi — I'm Alex, the editor behind BadMic Studio. Great editing is invisible: the listener just feels like the episode moves. With three decades in media production, I bring a seasoned ear and eye to every timeline.
Freelance video editor since 2018 — working with creators, businesses, and independents to turn raw footage into content that connects. My background spans sound engineering, event production, and photography.
Switch between a raw untreated recording and the BadMic studio master in real-time. Surgical noise removal, -14 LUFS broadcast loudness, and narrative multicam pacing.

“Alex has been an editor on my channel for half a year and I can't say enough good things! He works very fast, pays meticulous attention to every episode, so the audio and video look and sound great, and he is a wonderful communicator. He's a real pleasure to work with!”
“I've been working with Alex for over three years now and having him as my editor for the podcast has been the main reason I have managed to record and publish over 100 episodes on my podcast: @ViaStoica. He has not only been excellent at the editing work, audio and video, but he has also advised my team and me about equipment and how to record better. I highly recommend him.”

All common formats: .mp4, .mov, .wav, .mp3, .aiff and more. For video I prefer ProRes or H.264 exports from your editor; for audio, WAV or AIFF recorded at 44.1kHz/24-bit, because clean source files mean less cleanup and a better final result. Not sure what to send? Share a link to your recording folder and I'll tell you exactly which files to upload.
Usually 3–5 business days for a single episode, from raw files to a finished cut ready to publish. Weekly packages run on a consistent schedule that matches your release cadence, so episodes land in your hands on the same day every week. Need it faster? A 48-hour priority slot is available for an extra fee — just mention it when you reach out.
Every package includes at least one full revision round. Send clear, timestamped feedback (for example: cut the long pause at 12:40) and I'll make the changes and send the updated version back. Bigger structural changes after sign-off are billed as an extra round at a reduced hourly rate.
Yes. If you need something turned around faster, just ask before you send the files — rush pricing depends on scope, episode length and how tight the deadline is. The fastest I've done is same-day for a 40-minute episode, so if your episode is going live tomorrow it's usually still possible.
Absolutely — multicam video podcasts are a regular part of the work. Send every angle plus the audio from each camera (or a separate recorder) and I'll sync them, pick the best angle for each line and cut between them smoothly. 1080p and 4K both work, and native camera files (Sony, Canon, DJI) are fine too.
Send one episode link and your goal. I'll reply with an edit plan and a quote.
