Hi, I’m Aaron Sherman—a video editor and motion graphics specialist with 15+ years creating social-first, platform-optimized video for agencies and brands. I specialize in organizing footage, crafting narrative flow, and delivering polished exports that align with brand guidelines and storytelling goals. I love collaborating with producers and directors to refine rough cuts into engaging final cuts, with a focus on pacing, color, and sound across social platforms. In my work, I also handle long-form-to-short-form repurposing, including podcast editing, social cutdowns, captions, logos, intros/outros, lower thirds, and transitions. I manage end-to-end post-production workflows using Frame.io and template-driven asset libraries, and I’m comfortable leading projects from brief to delivery while balancing creative direction, brand standards, and tight deadlines to produce effective branded campaigns.
