Finishing Editor — Prestige Short Film (Sound Design, Color Grade, Music)
Working with Damian was a real pleasure. A genuine artist who elevated the material at every turn his instincts for storytelling are excellent, and he takes direction beautifully when it's given. The sound design is impeccable and his color work is expert-level. He doesn't just execute; he protects the vision. Already looking forward to the next project together. Highly recommended.

Feature Documentary Editing
Damian came on to a project that presented several challenges and he approached everything with great artistry, patience and detailed care. His dedication to quality of the end result was present throughout and he was patient with my own learning curve dealing with issues I had not contended with before. Excellent artistic eye, dedicated and committed to quality.

Job Success
Buenos Aires, Argentina - 5:56 am local time
documentaries, and premium digital content. My work has screened at Berlinale, Cannes Marché
du Film, TIFF, BFI London, San Sebastián, and 20+ international festivals. I hold a Best
Editing award from BAFICI 2023 and teach Film Editing at the University of Cinema in Buenos Aires.
I work with:
— Film directors and production companies in post-production for narrative features and documentaries
— YouTube creators (100K–5M+ subscribers) building long-form storytelling and retention-optimized content
— Brands and agencies producing high-end video campaigns that need cinematic narrative structure
— Productions using AI-generated footage that needs human editorial judgment to become emotionally alive

WHAT I ACTUALLY DO (and do differently)
────────────────────────────────────
NARRATIVE FEATURE FILM EDITING
Pacing, rhythm, and emotional architecture for long-form cinema and TV series.
I don't just assemble cuts — I construct the emotional journey your audience will experience.
PROFESSIONAL COLOR GRADING / DI
Full Digital Intermediate workflows in DaVinci Resolve. From on-set LUT design to final
deliverables in DCP, HDR, or streaming specs. Festival-grade color science.
DOCUMENTARY EDITING
Structure, story arc, and interview-driven narrative for investigative, observational,
and hybrid documentary formats.
AI FOOTAGE POST-PRODUCTION
AI-generated content looks technically impressive — but it doesn't feel like anything.
I specialize in taking AI-generated footage and giving it what AI cannot generate on its own:
emotional pacing, narrative logic, and human resonance. If your production uses AI visuals,
I'm the editorial layer that makes them believable and moving.
AUDIENCE RETENTION FOR LONG-FORM YOUTUBE
Applying cinematic narrative techniques — act structure, tension, release, music layering —
to creator content. Not social media cuts. Not short-form. Deep storytelling that keeps
viewers watching to the end.
POST-PRODUCTION CONSULTING
From workflow design and pipeline setup to editorial strategy and software decisions — I
offer consulting for productions at any stage. Whether you need a senior perspective before
the shoot, during editorial, or in color finishing, I help you make better decisions faster.
Specialties: editing workflow, color grading pipeline, DaVinci Resolve setup, narrative
structure review, post-production budget planning.
────────────────────────────────────
WHY THIS MATTERS IN 2026
────────────────────────────────────
AI can generate footage. It cannot build narrative.
It cannot feel where the cut belongs. It cannot decide which take carries the scene.
And it definitely cannot transform raw AI visuals into something an audience actually feels.
My work is human-led, story-first, and technically precise. If you need someone who
understands cinema — not just software — that's the gap I fill.
