Video Editing
Video: an exciting, constantly evolving world!
Since the dawn of cinematography, technologies, know-how and special effects have never ceased to amaze us with their ingenuity.
The visual appeal of cinema never ceases to amaze us, whether with beautiful landscapes, breathtaking scenes or ancient monsters and aliens from deep space.
Freelance editor
As you may already know, I’m a fan of artists who have shaped sound to image. Naturally, I got into video first by making soundtracks, and then I got into video editing and filming, which is even easier on the Mac.
From my sound experiences, I moved on to other experiments such as timeline editing, starting with iMovie and quickly moving on to Final Cut and Premiere, which reminds me of some of my work with audio software.
I learned about formats, codecs, post-production, file import and of course export, not forgetting color grading, video effects, transitions, overlay, titling and subtitles!
Of course, I’m not forgetting sound and audio tracks, with audio effects work, musical composition, mixing and mastering of sound to image.
Video editing can take time, energy and material investment. But I can assure you that my workflow, combined with the power of any video editing software, enables me to produce any type of professional-quality document.
My video process?
My job is to help you save time with editing software! Because digital video editing not only simplifies the production process, it also delivers fast, professional results. Based on your media, rushes, storyboard or specifications, I create your edit. We call this online editing. All you need is a good Internet connection to exchange files. Don’t have rushes, a storyboard or vague specifications?
Don’t panic, I can also film your shots and provide you with my know-how for shooting your videos, or supply you with stockshots to then begin video editing.
This can be for :
- Your YouTube channel editing, effects, thumbnails…
- The creation of a DCP (Digital Cinema Package) for your advertising in cinemas,
- For your company :
- In the form of a presentation of your team, your services, your products.
- Your online training courses in tutorial format.
- Product presentation for a website,
- Make a montage of your video CV, an EPK (Electronic Press Kit) for artists,
- An interview,
- Cooking recipes,
- Visiting apartments or houses,
- Retouching an existing video

Video equipment
Panasonic Lumix GH5 and LEICA 12-60 LENS
I can’t live without my GH5, both camera and stills camera. It’s my tool of choice for both indoor and outdoor shooting. It’s equipped with numerous accessories for shooting in 4k, not to mention continuous recording beyond 30 minutes. The icing on the cake is that, with the Lumix Tether application, you can work directly with your computer for recording or shooting sessions, or transform the GH5 into a webcam.
Video editing software
Final Cut Pro X
Apple’s editing software, Final Cut Pro is a powerful tool with an approach unique to the Cupertino firm. Easy to use, I really appreciate this software for its speedy workflow. With its multi-camera mode and audio sync, it’s one of my favorite tools. I use it to make training videos for both my own needs and those of my customers.
Adobe Premiere Pro
Premiere Pro from Adobe is a complete and powerful software package that I use in conjunction with the adobe suite of tools such as After Effect, Photoshop and Audition. I use it for social networking, corporate films and YouTube clips, with a music visualizer created with After Effect.
