YouTube Video Editor | Faceless Channel Editing | AI Video Generation

I edit faceless YouTube videos that hold viewers to the end documentary, true crime, finance and history. 6+ years, 50M+ views delivered, 39 projects on Upwork. I also build AI generated video scenes so your channel can publish more. An edit is only worth what it does to your retention graph. Anyone can cut footage together. The difference between a video YouTube pushes and a video it buries is usually the first 30 seconds, the pacing through the mid roll dip, and whether the sound design gives the viewer a reason to stay. That is what I actually work on. WHAT I DO FOR YOUR CHANNEL – Faceless YouTube video editing. Long form documentary structure, tight pacing, B roll selection and narrative sequencing built around watch time, not around effects. – AI video generation. Scene prompting, shot direction and clean up so AI footage cuts together with stock and archive material without looking artificial. – Retention editing. Cold open hooks, pattern interrupts, motion graphics, sound design and subtitle styling aimed at average view duration. – Thumbnails and packaging. Click driven thumbnail concepts and title options delivered alongside the edit, so the video actually gets opened. – YouTube Shorts and Reels. Vertical recuts from your long form footage, formatted for mobile retention. – Channel production support. Script feedback, voiceover sync, and a repeatable weekly delivery pipeline for automation channels. NICHES I KNOW BEST True crime and bodycam. Finance, economics and geopolitics. History and documentary. Explainer and whiteboard animation. Tech and AI commentary. If your channel sits outside these, message me anyway retention mechanics transfer across niches. HOW I WORK You get a fixed delivery date before we start, a first cut you can actually react to, and two structured revision rounds inside the quoted price. I reply inside a few hours on weekdays and I tell you early if something will slip you should never have to chase an editor for a status update. TOOLS Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Audition, CapCut Pro, plus AI generation and voice tools including Midjourney, Runway and ElevenLabs. WHERE TO START Send me your channel link or one recent video. I will come back with a specific read on the edit where the retention is likely dropping, what I would change in the first 30 seconds, and what I would charge to edit your next one. No template pitch.
