I’m putting together a long-form documentary that weaves classic storytelling with the latest AI-generated visuals, and I need an editor based in India who already lives and breathes this hybrid style. The raw footage is ready; what’s missing is the creative hand that can shape it into a polished, emotionally engaging narrative while making smart use of AI tools for enhancement and speed. Your reel should show solid documentary pacing, interview tightening, and an eye for authenticity. At the same time, I’m looking for someone who knows how to incorporate AI features—whether that’s intelligent upscaling, automated dialogue clean-ups, or motion tracking—without letting the technology overpower the story. When you apply, keep it simple and focus on your experience: links to recent documentary work, a note on the AI-driven techniques you used, and the average turnaround time you hit on past projects. If you’ve handled colour correction, subtle sound design tweaks, or seamless archival inserts for documentaries, mention that briefly as well. I’ll supply a detailed brief, footage, and access to any AI plug-ins or assets we already license once we kick off. Final delivery will be a 4K master plus a social-friendly cut, with two rounds of revisions included. Looking forward to collaborating with a fellow Indian creative who can elevate this film beyond standard edits and into something truly compelling.

Hi, This is a strong fit. For documentary work, AI should support the storytelling, not become the storytelling the edit still needs to feel human, authentic and emotionally paced. I can handle: • Long-form documentary editing and narrative structuring • Interview tightening while preserving natural emotion • Archival footage and seamless B-roll integration • AI-assisted upscaling and restoration where needed • Dialogue cleanup, noise reduction and audio enhancement • Motion tracking, cleanup and subtle compositing • AI-generated visuals only where they genuinely add context • Professional colour correction and cinematic grading • Subtle sound design that supports key emotional beats • 4K master + social-friendly cut • Two revision rounds My approach would be to first lock the story arc, pacing and interview structure, then use AI selectively for enhancement, restoration or visual gaps rather than letting generated content overpower the documentary tone. I can share relevant long-form/documentary work along with examples of the AI techniques used in each project. Civati
