Process
Step 01
You send your footage/audio + any notes. I define the edit direction, deliverables, and the "rules" for pacing and sound.
Output: clear plan + clean handoff
Step 02
Story → pacing → polish. I cut for retention, tighten every beat, and keep your sound consistent from episode to episode.
Output: polished draft
Step 03
One clean revision round. You send timestamped feedback and I make it right — fast.
Output: approved edit
Step 04
Exports for every platform — ready to publish with zero extra work.
Output: ready to publish

Case study
Inconsistent audio quality, pacing that lost viewers mid-episode, and no short-form content for social platforms.
Implemented a story-first editing workflow, cleaned and leveled all audio to -14 LUFS, and created 5+ platform-ready shorts per episode with dynamic captions.
Episodes now consistently hit 100K+ views. Shorts drive discovery on TikTok and Reels. Weekly publishing became stress-free with a repeatable pipeline.

FAQ

For single episodes, usually 3–5 business days. For weekly packages, we'll agree on a consistent schedule that works for your release cadence.
All packages include at least one revision round. Just send clear, timestamped feedback and I'll make the changes. For weekly clients, we can build a quick feedback loop.
Yes! If you need something turned around faster, just ask. Rush pricing varies based on the scope and timeline.
