I have roughly two hours of mixed footage—fresh interviews, on-location b-roll, plus several licensed archival clips—and I need it shaped into a tight, engaging documentary under the ten-minute mark that spotlights a specific historical event. The story arc is already outlined; what I lack is the editorial finesse to weave the raw and archival material together so it feels seamless, paced, and emotionally resonant. This means: • Sorting and trimming the interviews to pull out the strongest narrative beats • Matching archival visuals to key moments without obvious jumps in quality or aspect ratio • Adding tasteful lower-thirds, simple motion graphics for dates and names, and subtle sound design to glue scenes together • Colour-matching the mixed sources and balancing dialogue, ambience, and a light musical bed • Delivering a mastered 4K (or highest-available) file plus exported captions and the project file for future revisions Adobe Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve are both fine; please work in whichever environment lets you get the cleanest result fastest. Turnaround is flexible within reason, though I’d love a first rough cut within a week so we can lock the story before polishing. If this sounds like your kind of edit, tell me briefly how you’d approach integrating archival content without it feeling patch-worked, and link to one comparable project you’ve cut.

Hi, I can help you make this video feel clean, professional, and worth watching till the end. Most edits fail not because of poor effects, but because the pacing, structure, and viewer flow are not handled properly. For your project, I’d focus on keeping the edit sharp, removing dead space, improving the hook, and making the final output match the platform where it will be posted. At Civatî, we work on reels, shorts, YouTube videos, podcasts, ads, and brand content. We keep the editing style aligned with the purpose of the video, not just add random transitions or effects. Share the footage and any reference you like, and I’ll suggest the best edit direction before starting. Best, Civatî
