About

Hi! My name is Ivan Solomonov, and I’m a freelance video editor working remotely from Slovenia. I specialize in high-volume, detail-heavy video production for eLearning platforms, YouTube, and branded content.

I’ve edited multiple seasons of online courses and educational videos (up to 134 videos per season, 1–45 minutes each), handling full-cycle editing: multicam syncing, cutting, audio cleanup, color correction, trailers, promo videos, and social clips. My educational video work has included over 50 instructional videos for math teachers (textbook screenshots synced with AI-generated narration) and over 30 multicam educational videos for schoolkids, each produced in multiple variants. Recently, I worked on documentary projects for BBC StoryWorks, which strengthened my storytelling and structural editing skills.

I stand out because I combine technical precision, consistency at scale, and strong instincts for pacing — whether I’m managing a large batch of videos that all need careful, uniform treatment, or shaping a longer-form piece where structure and rhythm carry the story. I’m fluent in DaVinci Resolve and Adobe Premiere Pro.

I’m reliable, communicate well in remote workflows, and always deliver high-quality content tailored to the platform and format, whether that’s a long-form course video or a short social clip.

Educational videos for Math Courses
  • Video Editor

I worked as video editor on a series of over 50 instructional videos, created to help math teachers navigate and use their textbook materials. The work involved sourcing screenshots from the textbooks, generating AI-narration using ElevenLabs, syncing them with it, and handling the full edit — from structure to final assembly. The result was a set of clear, step-by-step videos that helped teachers quickly get up to speed with the textbook’s structure.

I edited three full-length online courses for SugarQueen Academy — a culinary education platform. Each course included over 100 video lessons, filmed with a three-camera setup.
