Some editors cut footage. I try to find the story inside it. My background is in narrative short films, cinematic colour grading, and social media content — and what connects all of it is the same thing: understanding what a piece needs to feel like before touching the timeline. I recently completed a short film that the full cast and crew felt strongly should be submitted to festivals. On a separate project, the director and sound mixer were genuinely impressed by the sound design I built — something that's become as natural to my process as the edit itself. What I work on: — Short films and narrative content (story, pacing, emotion) — Social media content for creators (TikTok, Reels, YouTube Shorts) — Colour grading (SLOG3, BRAW, ARRI, DLOG — log footage is where I'm most at home) — Sound editing and design (dialogue cleanup, Fairlight, full audio builds) — Founder stories, interviews, and branded content I work in DaVinci Resolve Studio and have experience as both an editor and creative director — which means I don't just execute a brief, I understand the strategy behind it. If you're working on something that needs to move people, tell a story, or look and sound like it was made with real intention — that's the kind of work I'm here for.

My name is Arijit, and I'm a Video Editor & Content Creator from Canada! I love creating entertaining others, which is why I currently create comedy skits on TikTok/Instagram. I also create documentaries and short-films on YouTube, on important social topics. I believe content creation can be a powerful tool to spread awareness and inspire others. I have experience with AI-generated media, video editing and motion graphics. I use a few different programs for editing my content, including: CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, Google Veo 3.1, Kling AI and Canva for additional graphics. For all of my content, I film in 4K 30fps. I also have a ring light, 2 tripods and a Rode Wireless Microphone for long-form videos. I can speak multiple languages including: Hindi, Bengali and basic Spanish (in addition to English). If you have any questions for me, please send me a message and I will be happy to chat! Thanks, Arijit Dasgupta

Hi there, If you're looking for a top-tier video editor who can bring energy, emotion, and polish to your content—look no further. I bring years of professional video editing experience. I worked at 1+1 Media, one of Ukraine’s largest and most respected TV networks. During my time there, I worked on some of the country’s most-watched live shows, including Dancing with the Stars, The Voice, and Masquerade—each drawing over 100000+ live viewers per episode. These weren’t just any projects. They demanded flawless, high-impact editing under extreme pressure, often with raw footage arriving the night before air. I thrived in that environment—crafting compelling, emotionally resonant stories and dynamic sequences that kept audiences glued to their screens. My editing style blends sharp pacing, strong narrative flow, and seamless integration of music, motion graphics, and animation—tailored to match your brand or vision. Whether you’re building a fast-paced entertainment piece or a more heartfelt story, I know how to shape the mood and rhythm to connect with your audience. You're not just hiring a video editor—you're hiring a partner who understands how to elevate content to broadcast-level quality. I’d love to bring that same passion and precision to your project. Let’s create something exceptional!
