I cut long-form YouTube, Shorts, Reels, gaming highlights, and social content built around where viewers actually drop off — retention-first pacing, motion-matched transitions, and cinematic finishing on every cut.
Five formats, five different attention spans. Pacing and structure change for each one.
Full episode edits with a cold-open hook, chaptered pacing, and a structure built to hold watch time past the first two minutes.
Vertical cuts engineered for a loop or a scroll-stopping first frame, with captions timed to the read speed of a thumb mid-scroll.
Platform-native pacing and sound design, cut to the beat drops and cut points that actually perform in-feed.
Kill-cams, clutch rounds, and stream VODs cut down to the moments worth watching — synced SFX and reaction cams included.
One long-form shoot, repurposed into a week of platform-sized clips without losing the story.
Every cut is checked against one question: does this hold the graph up?
Cold opens and pattern interrupts up front, so the algorithm and the viewer both keep watching past the intro.
Whip pans, match cuts, and motion-tracked wipes that hide the seams and keep momentum through slower sections.
Color grading, sound design, and considered pacing on every cut — not just the highlight reel moments.
Structure that earns comments and shares, with CTA placement timed to where attention is highest, not just the outro.
A mix of long-form, Shorts, Reels, and gaming cuts.
