01 โ€” Manifesto

Clarity and rhythm, in any style.

Video editing focused on clarity and rhythm. I work across a wide variety of styles, ranging from clean, functional pieces to projects with a higher level of visual complexity.

  • 01 Format adaptability From clean to complex
  • 02 Versatile editing Multi-style approach
  • 03 Clean cuts & rhythm Essential structure
02 โ€” Services

Ways we can work together.

01 ยท Vertical ยท Per project Short-Form Growth Hooks in the first second, pacing that never dips, subtitles built to hold the scroll. One shoot, cut down for every platform. Start here
02 ยท Horizontal ยท Per video Long-Form Storytelling Long videos people actually finish. Narrative structure, sound design and grade working together to carry attention past the ten-minute mark. Start here
03 ยท Strategy ยท Limited slots Creative Direction Titles, thumbnails and hooks tested before a frame is cut. I read the retention graph, then decide what we make next. Start here

The channel is the lab.

Weekly vlogs I film and edit myself โ€” life between Madrid, Hong Kong and rural China. No brief, no client. Just the place where I figure out what good editing actually feels like, and where you can get a sense of who I am beyond the work.

Most content disappears in 24 hours. I build the kind that stacks โ€” not a sprint, a system.

04 โ€” Why me

One operator, zero handoffs.

Audiovisual Communication background across Madrid, Hong Kong, and Mainland China. Video editor by trade and active creator on YouTube. I cut with the instincts of someone who films, publishes, and studies retention weekly on his own channelโ€”delivering clean, dynamic edits that respect both the story and the viewer. Based in Madrid.

  • An editor who actually creates

    Most editors just follow a brief. Because I film and edit my own content, I cut with a creator's intuitionโ€”understanding where the energy peaks, how the shoot felt, and how to keep real viewers engaged.

  • End-to-end post-production

    Raw footage in, polished master out. Every project gets treated with balanced sound design, natural color grading in DaVinci Resolve, and frame-accurate pacingโ€”zero outsourcing required.

  • Editorial taste over generic templates

    Fast vertical retention and immersive long-form storytelling. Clean, intentional cuts that elevate your personal style instead of relying on overused plugin trends or generic templates.

  • Bilingual & global reach

    Native Spanish and fluent English, operating between Europe and Asia. Edits packaged cleanly for YouTube, Instagram, and TikTok, adapted for international audiences.
