Karan B.
YouTube Video Editor | Shorts, Reels & Long-Form | Audience Retention
In 6 months, I grew a brand-new YouTube channel to 8,000 subscribers and 600,000 views, delivering 200% ROI for my client. That's what retention-focused editing actually looks like. Hi I'm Karan, a video editor with 4+ years of experience working with creators and brands up to 4M followers, including C-suite executives who trust me with their personal content. What I actually do differently: I edit with audience retention as the primary metric every cut, graphic, and pacing decision is made to keep viewers watching longer. Longer watch time means better rankings, more reach, and real growth. Tools I work with: Adobe Premiere Pro | After Effects | Photoshop | AI-assisted workflows (Kling, Firefly, Google Veo) Platforms & Formats: YouTube (long-form + Shorts) | Instagram Reels | LinkedIn Video | TikTok If your videos aren't getting the traction they deserve, let's fix that. Send me a message on Upwork and we'll hop on a quick call to talk through your goals. - Karan
