I’m producing a feature-length documentary built around personal stories and I need an editor who can shape these narratives into an uplifting, inspirational experience. I’ll supply multi-camera footage, interview audio, B-roll, and a rough outline. Your task is to transform raw material into a cohesive, emotionally resonant film through thoughtful story arcs, pacing, and seamless transitions. The job involves: • Crafting a clear narrative structure from interviews and vérité footage • Selecting and synchronising the strongest moments, then weaving in archival clips, titles, lower thirds, and graphics as needed • Polishing colour and audio so the final piece feels cinematic and consistent • Delivering a locked picture plus a version with split-track audio for final mix I work in Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve, so being fluent in either (ideally both) is essential. Please share links to long-form work—especially documentaries centred on personal journeys—that highlights your sense of pacing and emotional storytelling. If this sounds like the kind of story you love to tell, I’d like to hear how you’d approach it and your estimated turnaround time.

Hi, I can help you make this video feel clean, professional, and worth watching till the end. Most edits fail not because of poor effects, but because the pacing, structure, and viewer flow are not handled properly. For your project, I’d focus on keeping the edit sharp, removing dead space, improving the hook, and making the final output match the platform where it will be posted. At Civatî, we work on reels, shorts, YouTube videos, podcasts, ads, and brand content. We keep the editing style aligned with the purpose of the video, not just add random transitions or effects. Share the footage and any reference you like, and I’ll suggest the best edit direction before starting. Best, Civatî

Personal stories told with heart, pacing that breathes, and an emotional arc that leaves viewers uplifted — this is the kind of editing I find most meaningful.
