The Service

What you get
when you work with me

I don't just edit. I think about your channel's growth, your audience's attention, and your video's structure from the very beginning.

✂️
Full Video Editing
End-to-end editing in DaVinci Resolve or Premiere Pro. Pacing, cuts, structure, B-roll selection, and a complete narrative arc built into every video.
Motion & Text Work
After Effects animations, text overlays, and graphics that reinforce your key messages without distracting from your delivery.
🎨
Colour Grading
Cinematic colour work that gives your channel a consistent, intentional visual identity across every upload.
📝
Pre-Production Input
Script feedback, structure suggestions, and planning input before you film. Better structure in = better video out, every time.
🎙️
Podcast Production
Long-form interview and podcast editing. Audio cleanup and structuring long conversations into watchable, engaging video content.
📈
Retention Thinking
I think about why viewers stay and where they leave. Every edit is built with YouTube retention in mind — not just aesthetics.

The Process

How it works

Simple, low-friction, and built around your workflow. Working with me should make your life easier — not add more to it.

Send me an email or message. Tell me about your channel and what you need. I'll reply within 24 hours.
2
Free sample edit
I'll edit a 90-second clip from one of your videos — free, no commitment — so you can see exactly what I do before deciding.

We agree on terms
Per-video rate, turnaround time, revision rounds. Simple agreement, no surprises. I'm transparent about everything upfront.

You focus on creating
You film and send footage. I handle the edit. You review and approve. Your channel grows. That's the whole job.

About Me

I edit videos.
I grow channels.

I'm Habeeb — a video editor and storyteller. For three years I've worked with YouTube creators in personal finance, minimalism, and self-improvement, helping them grow by building videos that don't just look good — they hold attention from the first second to the last.

I currently edit for Gabe Bult, who grew from 400k to 760k subscribers during our time working together. Before that, I helped @dredrexler go from 600k to 1M. I also hold credits on multiple HubSpot videos, and my personal short films have won the ColorPro Film Festival 2021 and placed runner-up at the Artlist CreativeFest.

Beyond technical skill — I bring pre-production thinking, script input, and a genuine understanding of what makes audiences stay. When you hire me, you're not just hiring someone to cut footage. You're hiring someone who cares whether your video performs.

"I know how YouTube works and how to keep viewers' attention through good storytelling — without the need for over-the-top editing."
