Alaa · Video editor & YouTube strategist

Edits built to keep them watching.

I help creators turn raw footage into videos people actually finish — long-form YouTube edits, retention-driven shorts, and the strategy behind them.

Long-form videos

Full edits handled end to end — pacing, story, sound and polish. Click any video to play it right here.

02 · Vertical

Short-form that travels

Reels, Shorts and TikToks cut for the scroll — fast hooks, tight pacing, captions that pop. Hover to pause the reel, click any short to watch it.

03 · Why me

More than just cuts

CUT 01

Retention-first editing

Every cut, zoom and sound cue has one job: keeping viewers on the video. Pacing is built around the story, not just the beat.

CUT 02

Strategy included

I think like a YouTube strategist, not just an editor — hooks, structure and packaging that give the video its best shot before it's even published.

CUT 03

Easy to work with

Clear communication, fast turnarounds, and revisions until it feels right. You send footage, you get back a video you're proud to post.

Questions, answered

What do you offer? +
Long-form YouTube editing, short-form content (Reels, Shorts, TikToks), and YouTube strategy — hooks, structure and packaging. Whether it's a full video or a batch of shorts, I bring your story to life with precision and creativity.
How do we get started? +
Book a quick call or DM me on X or Instagram. We'll talk about your channel, your goals and your style — then I'll take a first project so you can see how I work before committing to anything bigger.
What if the edit isn't what I imagined? +
We iterate. I'm always open to feedback and revisions are part of the process — the video isn't done until you're happy to hit publish.
How fast is the turnaround? +
It depends on the length and complexity of the project, but I'll give you a clear delivery date up front — and I keep it.
