Ignacio L.
Narrative Video Editor | Speaker Reel Expert
I help speakers, experts, coaches, and brands turn raw material into clear, polished, story-driven videos that communicate authority, message, and value. My main focus is speaker reels and brand films: videos that help people look credible, memorable, and ready for bigger opportunities. A strong reel is not just a montage. It needs structure, rhythm, the right opening, clear positioning, strong soundbites, emotional pacing, clean visuals, and a sense of what the audience should understand by the end. That’s where I come in. I work with keynote footage, interviews, podcasts, testimonials, event footage, photos, B-roll, and brand materials to shape videos that feel intentional, modern, and useful for websites, event planners, booking teams, social media, and sales conversations. Projects I regularly work on include: → Speaker reels & personal brand videos → Brand films & promotional storytelling videos → Documentary-style edits → Interview-driven videos → Testimonial videos → Event highlights & campaign videos → Short-form cutdowns from longer edits With a background in screenwriting and film direction, I approach every edit with a storyteller’s mindset. I’m not only cutting clips together, I’m looking for the strongest structure, the clearest message, the best emotional rhythm, and the moments that make someone care. That means: ▪ Strong narrative flow ▪ Clear positioning ▪ Emotional pacing ▪ Strategic soundbite selection ▪ Clean graphics and visual polish ▪ Professional sound and color finishing ▪ Audience-first editing decisions I’ve collaborated with clients such as Discovery+, Explore With Us, Millions Stories Media, Youth Climate Save, Jazwares, Veganuary, and a wide range of speakers, coaches, nonprofits, educators, and mission-driven brands. Tools I use daily: Adobe Premiere Pro | After Effects | Photoshop | Illustrator | Frameio | Google Drive | Dropbox If you’re looking for an editor who thinks beyond cuts and transitions — and focuses on clarity, structure, message, and impact — let’s connect.
