Hey there!

That's how much time most podcasters or marketing managers waste on editing, clipping, and formatting. I take your raw recording and produce everything. Full episode. Social clips. Thumbnails. Show notes. You never touch a timeline again. Have worked finance, tech, coaching, health, culture and education. Interview shows and solo episodes. Multi-camera editing for in-studio shoots. Remote podcast with Riverside, StreamYard, or Zoom. ๐Ÿ”น ๐—ช๐—ต๐˜† ๐—บ๐—ฒ? What separates me from most podcast editors on this platform is that I actually run a podcast. I created and produced the Creating Freedom Podcast. 26-episode limited interview series. Did the whole thing myself. Concept. Filming. Editing in Premiere Pro and After Effects Did the whole thing myself, start to finish. Concept through to distribution.I don't just edit podcasts. I know what it's like to make one. ๐Ÿ”น ๐—›๐—ผ๐˜„ ๐—œ'๐—บ ๐—ฑ๐—ถ๐—ณ๐—ณ๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ๐—ป๐˜ When I watch your episode, I can tell where people will drop off. I can feel which moments have enough energy to stand on their own as YouTube Shorts or LinkedIn video clips. Every clip I pull is hand-selected. I watch the full episode. No auto-cutting tools. No AI clipping. The moments that work on social aren't the ones a transcript picks up. They're in the delivery. The shift in someone's voice. The pause before they say something real. You have to watch it to catch it. ๐Ÿ”น ๐—›๐—ฒ๐—ฟ๐—ฒ'๐˜€ ๐˜„๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐—œ ๐˜๐—ต๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ธ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚'๐—ฟ๐—ฒ ๐—ฝ๐—ฟ๐—ผ๐—ฏ๐—ฎ๐—ฏ๐—น๐˜† ๐—ฑ๐—ฒ๐—ฎ๐—น๐—ถ๐—ป๐—ด ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต. โžค You're spending 5 to 15 hours on each episode. Editing, cutting clips, formatting for platforms, writing descriptions. Time you should be putting toward content and guests. โžค Your episodes probably look a bit different every week. The intro changes. Graphics are inconsistent. Turnaround is unpredictable. Your audience notices, even if they can't articulate why. โžค You know you should be repurposing content for social. You see other shows posting clips that get traction on Reels, Shorts, TikTok clips, LinkedIn. But actually doing it, finding moments, editing each one, adding captions, formatting for every platform, that's basically a second full time job. โžค And if you've hired editors before who just delivered generic cuts with no feel for your show, I understand the hesitation. I'm here to take that whole problem off your hands. ๐Ÿ”น ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ฎ๐˜ ๐˜†๐—ผ๐˜‚ ๐—ด๐—ฒ๐˜ Send me your files. I take it from there: โžค Full episode editing, video and audio sync, multi cam or single cam โžค Custom intros, outros and branded graphics โžค Cold opens that hook viewers in the first few seconds โžค Social media clips with captions for YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels, TikTok and LinkedIn โžค Thumbnails โžค Titles, descriptions and show notes โžค ~3-4 days turnaround on standard edits ๐Ÿ”น ๐—ช๐—ต๐—ผ ๐—œ'๐˜ƒ๐—ฒ ๐˜„๐—ผ๐—ฟ๐—ธ๐—ฒ๐—ฑ ๐˜„๐—ถ๐˜๐—ต I've worked with Gray Capital (finance), TensorWave (AI/tech), SME Centre of AI (tech/education), Business Benchmark, University of Chicago (education), National Flight Training Alliance (aviation), and plenty more across coaching, dating and culture.

Invite any teammates I'll be working with. I set you up with a project tracker so we're on the same page. โ†’ Step 03 - Editing & Creation Once you submit your first episode, I start with a production plan before it hits the timeline. I run a 5-pass editing stage for video and audio, leaving nothing out. Goal is to get 90% of the way there on our first episode together. โ†’ Step 04 - Review & Revisions You get the edit on Frame-io. Click the frame, leave a note. Done. โ†’ Step 05 - Final Delivery Once approved, download your finished video. ๐Ÿ”น ๐—Ÿ๐—ฒ๐˜โ€™๐˜€ ๐—ฐ๐—ผ๐—ป๐—ป๐—ฒ๐—ฐ๐˜: If you're searching for a video editor who can add value to your project just hit the โ€œ๐— ๐—ฒ๐˜€๐˜€๐—ฎ๐—ด๐—ฒโ€ button to chat! ๐—ก๐—˜๐—ช ๐—–๐—Ÿ๐—œ๐—˜๐—ก๐—ง?
