My name is Aaron Dewberry and I'm a video editor available worldwide. I've worked with a number of brands and have been blessed with some pretty great clients currently outside of this platform, I'm just experimenting with Upwork for client acquisition. So if you need some work done by an industry level video editor for your projects at a reduced rate now's your chance as I experiment with this site. Quick note: No AI inquiries please. I've worked with brands like Apple, Toyota, and MGM to support individuals and smaller production companies with their post-production workflows. Specializing in corporate and promotional content, I give clients back their time so they can grow their business while still having time for themselves and their families. I aspire to work more in the documentary space and am in pre production of a small mini doc series that explores the Biblical relationship between food and man. When not sitting in front of my computer I like to travel, cook, play video games, workout, and watch horrible movies.

Most videos lose viewers in the first 10 seconds. Mine don’t. I edit content built for retention, watch time, and conversion, not just aesthetics. You don't need just another editor or animator, you need someone who understands engagement, timing, and style. 6+ years. 1,000+ videos. Worked with 100K+ creators, brands, and fast-growing channels. What sets me apart: • Retention-first editing (pacing, hooks, flow) • Deep understanding of audience psychology • Clean, modern, platform-native styles • I match your style, or make it better Projects I handle: • YouTube (long-form that keeps people watching) • Short-form (Reels, TikTok, Shorts that hook fast) • Ads & VSLs (built to convert, not just impress) • Motion graphics & explainers No templates. No guesswork. Everything is edited with your audience in mind. Fast turnaround. Clear communication. Long-term mindset. Top 10% of Upwork Talent in just couple of months. If you want videos that people actually finish watching, let’s talk.

I’m a videographer and video editor with over 10 years of experience working on commercials and digital content for different brands. I handle both sides of the process — shooting strong visuals on set and then shaping the story in the edit. Most of my work involves product ads, brand videos, and social content. I focus a lot on clean visuals, natural lighting, smooth camera work, and then bringing everything together through tight editing, good pacing, sound design, and color grading. I care about making the final piece feel polished but still real and engaging. If you need someone who can shoot it well and then edit it properly without overcomplicating things, I’m happy to connect.
