Short-form video editor turning talking-head footage, podcast recordings, and long-form video into high-retention Reels, TikToks, and YouTube Shorts plus full long-form YouTube edits and direct-response video ads. The difference between 500 views and 500,000 is the edit: the hook that lands in the first 3 seconds, the cut that kills dead air before the viewer feels it, the caption timed to stop the thumb. That's what I build. WHAT I EDIT — Short-form content: Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts hook-first, retention-paced, platform-native — Podcast clips & repurposing: one long-form recording into 5–10 clips I find the moments, you post daily — Long-form YouTube: 10–20 min videos structured for retention storytelling, B-roll, motion graphics, chapters — Video ads: scroll-stopping Meta and TikTok ad creatives strong hooks, fast variations, high-converting cuts — Documentary & news-style shorts: screenshots, callouts, credible pacing for finance, news, and B2B stories WHAT EVERY CLIP GETS — Hook-first structure: pattern interrupt in the first 3 seconds, no slow build — Dead air removed: tight pacing, punch-ins, jump cuts, speed ramps every pause intentional — Kinetic captions: styled, animated, burned-in, SRT file included — B-roll sourcing + motion graphics: text animation, lower thirds, callouts, transitions — Sound design: music sync, SFX, trending audio where it fits, clean mix no peaking — Color grading + platform-ready export: 9:16, 1080×1920 pacing and caption style tuned separately for Reels, TikTok, and Shorts, because the platforms don't reward the same edit MY STACK Adobe Premiere Pro · After Effects · CapCut · DaVinci Resolve · Final Cut Pro plus AI-assisted editing tools for captions, motion graphics, and B-roll sourcing when they speed delivery without cheapening the edit. SPEED & VOLUME Short-form first drafts in 24 hours; long-form in 48. I handle up to 5 clips/day and 25+ per week on agency retainers, with batches delivered ahead of schedule so daily posting stays covered 7 days a week. PRICING & WORKFLOW Per-clip, weekly batch, or monthly retainer whichever fits your volume. You share raw footage via Drive or Dropbox with a short brief; I deliver captioned drafts with SRT and cover image. Revisions are fast and frictionless. I overlap US and UK business hours. WHO I EDIT FOR — Creators, founders & personal brands repurposing long-form into daily short-form clips — Coaches & educators whose talking-head footage needs to hold attention — Agencies that need volume, brand-guide discipline, and deadlines hit without chasing — B2B & SaaS brands turning "boring" industries into thumb-stopping content — E-commerce, fitness, real estate, wellness & food brands building consistent presence I study trends daily sounds, formats, caption styles and ground every edit in what actually holds viewers: hooks, retention curves, pattern interrupts, pacing. Trend-aware, fundamentals-first, regardless of niche. If your raw footage has a strong moment in it, I will find it, cut it, and make it perform. Message me with your content brief or a sample clip and let's get your first edit moving.

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐨 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐝🤧 Right around the 4-second mark. The viewer scrolled, your ad spend burned, and your competitor just got the lead. 𝒀𝒐𝒖 𝒅𝒊𝒅𝒏'𝒕 𝒍𝒐𝒔𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒂𝒖𝒔𝒆 𝒚𝒐𝒖𝒓 𝒑𝒓𝒐𝒅𝒖𝒄𝒕 𝒊𝒔 𝒃𝒂𝒅. You lost them because you hired a traditional "video editor" who just slapped on basic captions and called it a day. In the modern retention economy, that is financial suicide. My name is Weneka Nuel, and I don't just edit videos. 𝗜 𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. I am a Senior Video Editor and AI Video Architect. I run the Iron Heart Pipeline, a specialized post-production architecture designed strictly for B2B Founders, Podcasters, YouTube Creators, and E-Commerce Brands who are tired of bleeding high-ticket conversions.

Need an AI Spokesperson Video? We deploy professional AI avatars using HeyGen and Synthesia. Need Course Video Production? We structure polished eLearning modules.

𝐑𝐞𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 & 𝐌𝐢𝐜𝐫𝐨-𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 (𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐭-𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐦 & 𝐀𝐝𝐬): We scrub your raw footage to extract the most lethal hooks for TikTok UGC, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts. From high-converting Shopify Product Videos to Direct Response Video Ads, we apply rapid-fire CapCut editing, Motion Graphics, and psychological pattern-interrupts to maximize watch time. ⚙️ THE TECH STACK: Standard Editing: Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve, Camtasia.
