Umut U.
Video Editor & Sound Designer | YouTube Retention & Post-Production
You’re losing 70% of your audience in the first 30 seconds. Let’s fix that. 🎯 As a one-person premium post-production studio, I don't just edit videos—I architect visual and auditory experiences designed to hook viewers, maximize retention, and turn casual scrollers into loyal subscribers. With over a two decades of industry experience, including festival-credited work featured at Cannes and Toronto, I bridge the gap between Hollywood-grade cinematic storytelling and high-converting digital content. 🎬 My work seamlessly blends strategic high-retention editing—focusing on pacing, pattern interrupts, and kinetic visual rhythm—with immersive sound design and custom scoring built in Ableton Live, meaning zero generic stock tracks. Alongside this deep acoustic architecture, I deliver professional bilingual voiceover in Turkish and English, plus visual packaging optimized for maximum CTR. 🎧 Backed by a 100% Job Success score and Top-Rated status across 120+ completed projects, my workflow is built on zero micromanagement, strict turnarounds, and a feature-film mindset applied to digital media. If you are looking for an elite-level post-production partner who treats your channel like a premium cinematic project, let’s talk. 🚀
