Faceless YouTube Editor | AI Documentary Videos | High Retention
YouTube Video Editor | Faceless Documentary, AI Visuals & High Retention I help faceless and documentary-style YouTube channels turn scripts into videos people actually watch to the end - including full AI-generated documentaries when you have no footage at all. If viewers drop off in the first 30 seconds, or the middle feels slow, that is usually an editing problem, not a content problem. My whole focus is pacing, storytelling and visual momentum that hold attention from the hook to the last line. What I do - Retention-focused editing with strong hooks, pattern interrupts and pacing built to stop drop-off - Documentary storytelling with cinematic B-roll, motion graphics and sound design that serve the narrative - Full AI video production using Google Flow (Veo) and Gemini, writing a prompt for every narrator line so the visuals follow your script shot by shot - AI presenter clips for channels that want an on-camera host without filming - Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects finishing, delivered upload-ready with a full sources sheet Recent work I produce the German documentary channel ABWelt end to end - engineering and history films on the world's deepest tunnel, Japan's $72B maglev, the Channel Tunnel and the Netherlands below sea level. Every frame is AI-generated from the script. The tunnel film passed 5,000 views in its first week. Those videos are in my portfolio below, so you can judge the pacing yourself. I also work in history, religion, commentary, sports and YouTube automation niches, and I have run complete channel production workflows from script to final upload. Why clients stay Top Rated with a 100% Job Success Score. Clients come back because communication is clear, deadlines hold and the videos perform. One client called the final cut a "visual masterpiece." Languages: I edit German and English content. German scripts are no problem - I work from bilingual DE/EN editor scripts every week. Let's start Send me your script, your raw footage or a sample video. I will tell you exactly how I would approach the edit and where your retention is leaking. If you are building a faceless or AI documentary channel and want an editor who treats your retention graph like his own, message me.
