YouTube Video Editor | Long & Short-Form | Retention-Focused Editing

If your YouTube videos aren't holding viewers to the end, the problem is usually in the edit — not the content. I fix that.
I'm a YouTube video editor with 7+ years of experience specializing in long-form storytelling, documentary, and history content — the formats where pacing and structure decide whether someone stays or clicks away.
What I actually focus on in every edit:
— Pacing that keeps watch time high from minute one to the end
— Cuts and transitions that serve the story, not just fill the timeline
— Audio and visual consistency that makes your channel feel professional
— A delivery style that fits your audience, not a generic template
Long-form video editing I work on:
→ YouTube documentaries and history videos
→ Long-form storytelling and educational content
→ YouTube Shorts and short-form content
→ Channel trailers and promotional videos
→ Social media video ads
→ Vlogs and talking-head videos
7 years of editing. Top Rated on Upwork. 100% Job Success Score.
