Freelance video editing for ads people watch instead of scrolling past.

You already run your campaigns. I edit your ad videos with the pacing, the hooks and the subtitles that keep your audience there.

Message me on WhatsApp

Send me an ad you run today: during the call I tell you what I would change in the edit.

What an editor who only cuts ads changes in your videos.

You keep your hands on the campaigns, I take care of what happens on screen.

A hook worked on before anything else.

The first seconds decide whether your ad gets watched at all. I prepare several openings for each video: a question, a figure from your business, a scene that puzzles. You then keep the one that holds the most viewers.

Pacing set for a phone.

Short shots, silences cut out, regular visual restarts: the edit follows the way a video gets watched in a feed, usually with the sound off.

Subtitles that carry the message.

Every sentence is burned in, proofread and emphasised on the right word, so the video makes sense without sound, even half-watched on a commute.

A picture that matches your company.

Colour grading, cleaned-up voices, restrained styling in your colours: your videos give off the same seriousness as your work.

Videos ready to publish within 7 days of your footage arriving.

Five steps, from raw footage to files that go straight out to your campaigns.

  1. day 1

    Brief and footage

    You send me your footage, your past ads and whatever you know about how they performed. I spot what holds attention and what loses it.

    • Review of the ads you run now
    • Footage transferred by shared link
    • Choosing the angles to cut

  2. if needed

    Shooting on site

    If images are missing, I come and film at your premises: the owner to camera, the team at work, the product in use. Half a day of shooting often feeds several weeks of testing.

    • Questions and shots prepared beforehand
    • Careful light and sound
    • Footage that belongs to you

  3. as soon as the footage lands

    Paced editing

    I set the pace on the speech, cut the silences and put a strong opening in front. Each idea exists with several different beginnings, for your tests.

    • Several openings per idea
    • Subtitles burned in and proofread
    • Music and sound design

  4. before day 7

    Grading and finishing

    Colours consistent from shot to shot, natural skin tones, contrast that still reads on a small screen. I check every video on a phone before sending it.

    • Grading in DaVinci Resolve
    • Voice mixing
    • Checked on mobile

  5. on delivery

    Delivery and feedback

    You get files ready to publish, named for your ads manager. I work your feedback in before the final version.

    • Exports in 9:16 and 4:5
    • Revisions until you sign off
    • Footage and exports archived for you

Editing on its own, for teams already running their own campaigns.

Premium editing

Advertising video editing

You handle the campaigns, I deliver videos ready to test, at a steady rhythm.

  • Paced editing and multiple hooks
  • Subtitles burned in and proofread
  • Grading and mixing
  • Exports matched to each placement
  • Shooting at your premises, optional

Volume of videos agreed together, to suit how fast you test.

Want to know who you will be dealing with? My background and how I work

I cut your ads if…

  • You already run campaigns, alone, in house or with an agency.
  • You want videos that hold attention for longer.
  • You have footage, testimonials or interviews sitting in a folder.
  • You need new videos every month to keep your tests moving.
  • You care about a polished picture, true to your brand.
  • You want an editor who understands what an ad has to sell.

Your questions about editing your video ads

I run my own campaigns: can you just edit?

Yes, that is exactly this service. You keep the campaigns, I deliver the videos. If one day you want to hand me the campaigns too, we can talk about it, but nothing obliges you to.

What files should I send you?

Your raw footage, even shot on a phone, your logo, your fonts, and if possible your past ads with how they performed. A share link is enough: I sort and file everything on my side.

How many versions of the same video do I get?

For each idea I cut several different openings, in the formats you need. There is no quota: I make as many versions as your testing calls for.

What if I have no usable footage at all?

I come and film at your premises, the owner, the team or the product, or I generate shots with AI from the material you already have. We choose together whichever makes your offer the most credible.

How do revisions work?

You get a first version and send me your notes in writing or on WhatsApp, pointing to the moment in the video. I work them in before the final version, with no limit on revisions.

Why an editor specialised in ads rather than a generalist?

An ad is not cut like a corporate film: it has to hook in a few seconds, make sense without sound and make someone want to act. I cut every video with the eye of someone who sold for years, thinking about what it has to set off in your prospect.

Who keeps the files once the editing is done?

You do. The delivered videos, the footage I shoot and the exports remain your property. You can reuse them on any channel, advertising or not, without asking me.
