POST-PRODUCTION SPECIALIST: OBJECT REMOVAL, ROTOSCOPING, VFX CLEANUP, AUDIO RESTORATION & DIALOGUE EDITING. Every project below is independently verifiable — client website links, IMDb credit, and creator credits on published videos included. Not a stock portfolio. • OBJECT REMOVAL & REPLACEMENT — Logos, equipment, people, unwanted background elements removed or replaced from footage. Manual frame-by-frame rotoscoping when automated tools (tracking software, AI inpainting) fail on complex shots — camera movement, motion blur, fast action, elements overlapping or obscured by hair, movement, or blur. Examples: removing piercings occluded by wind-blown hair during an actor's movement, replacing eye reflections/retinas in close-up, removing a scar mid-performance on a singer's face during fast rap delivery, and erasing product labels on a conveyor line moving at high speed. • ROTOSCOPING — Frame-by-frame manual roto for film, commercials, and music videos. Recognized work on internationally awarded short film "The Noose" ("Loop"). • AUDIO RESTORATION & DIALOGUE EDITING — Noise reduction, dialogue cleanup, filler-word removal without breaking natural speech pacing or emotional delivery. I edit with attention to intent, not just tempo — keeping a deliberate pause where someone is thinking, or the momentum where someone is excited, rather than cutting everything to a uniform rhythm. Live keynote audio restoration for executives from Google Cloud, NTT, and The Walt Disney Company. Lead audio restoration for World Bank Group international video conferences (2024) under NDA. • BEAUTY & PRODUCT RETOUCHING — 8K skin retouching for luxury brands (Dazia Jewelry), blemish removal preserving full skin texture at macro scale. • VFX PROBLEM-SOLVING — Custom DaVinci Resolve workflows when standard tools fail. Example: recovered "lost" out-of-focus commercial shots for DroCo International via custom facial-tracking and frequency-separation workflow. Digital logo replacement and planar tracking for e-commerce brands (Ergonix, Senator). • AWARDS — "The Noose" ("Loop"): Best Post-Production (AltFF, Toronto), Winner (ESMOA Video Art Film Festival, USA), Award Winner (Free Cinema Independent Film Festival, Kyiv), Finalist TOP-10 (Croatian One-Minute Film Festival). • SOFTWARE — DaVinci Resolve (Fusion, Fairlight, custom macros), Premiere Pro, After Effects, Adobe Audition, ComfyUI, Midjourney, ElevenLabs, Cinema 4D. • IMDb credited: Digital Retoucher. I'm a post-production expert who solves problems standard tools can't — from restoring confidential corporate audio under strict NDAs to hand-rotoscoping frames that automated tracking gave up on. My background spans music videos, commercial/beauty campaigns, and award-winning independent film. Whatever the budget or scale, I bring the same cinema-standard precision to every project. Let's discuss what you need.
