Project 01 · YouTube
A YouTube channel digging into the mysteries of the ancient world. I'm the video editor and creative manager here, handling it end to end, from the first cut to hitting upload.

Intros that set the tone
A strong intro decides whether someone keeps watching. I put real care into the opening of each episode, building the pacing, motion and sound that pull you into the story before the first word is even spoken.
I work mostly in DaVinci Resolve Studio, which gives me the control I want over the edit, colour and finishing. The reel here is a peek at one of those intro timelines coming together.
I'm responsible for turning raw recordings and research into finished, watchable episodes: pacing the edit, shaping the narrative, and keeping a consistent visual identity across the channel. Besides the editing, I communicate with the guests, help with day-to-day tasks, and manage the YouTube channel itself, from keywords and SEO to the little things that keep it running.
Every video lives or dies on its thumbnail. I design bold, high-contrast thumbnails with clear focal points and punchy text hooks, built to stop the scroll and tell you exactly why this episode is worth your time. Below is a selection from the channel.
