FREELANCE VIDEO EDITOR

Cuts that keep people watching past the first ten seconds.

I edit long-form YouTube uploads, paid social ads, podcast interviews, and short-form batches for Reels and TikTok.

SPEC WORK

Edits made to show the craft

Speculative edits cut from publicly available footage, made to demonstrate how I work.

4 EDITS
SHORT-FORM

Effects and storytelling that hold attention

Watch for the face-tracking effect and the red and green flash hits — but the real work here is the storytelling. The full cut on YouTube shows how it builds.

SHORT-FORM

Motion graphics, b-roll, and sound design

Here the focus was b-roll that lands exactly on what the host is saying, with sound effects and transitions picked to match each moment rather than fill it.

SHORT-FORM

Storytelling built on archive b-roll

I dug up old footage of the Rich Dad Poor Dad author — appearances on Oprah and alongside Donald Trump — and cut it back in as b-roll to carry the story.

SHORT-FORM

Animated type, cut to the voice

Custom text animated to land on what is being said, timed with sound effects so the words hit instead of just sitting on screen.

ABOUT

I'm Daniel, the editor behind DeJota Visuals.

I cut for retention. Every decision on the timeline answers one question: does this earn the next five seconds? Pacing, b-roll placement, sound design, when to hold a shot and when to cut away.

I work in Premiere Pro, deliver in English, Portuguese and Spanish, and I'm based in Brazil — which usually means your footage gets edited while you sleep.

First cut in 3 days. Two rounds of revisions included.
