Michael Smith

I’m a professional video editor with 8+ years of experience across commercial, promotional, branded, and long-form content. My background in commercial editing taught me precision — tight pacing, clean structure, and strong storytelling under time pressure. I now apply that same discipline to business content, podcast interviews, and documentary-style YouTube videos. I work on: • Commercial & branded videos • Business / founder podcasts • Long-form YouTube content • Documentary-style storytelling • Clean dialogue & audio polish • Structured, retention-focused edits My approach is simple: clarity first, pacing second, no unnecessary effects. Whether it’s a promo piece that needs energy or a 60-minute conversation that needs shaping and structure — I focus on making content feel intentional, professional, and easy to watch. If you're looking for an editor who understands both commercial storytelling and long-form content — let’s collaborate.
