I’m Karim Chaya, based in Rosario, Argentina. Video Editor, Motion Graphics & Designer · AI with the tools I know. I edit long-form YouTube videos and podcasts, cut trailers and shorts with animated captions, and build motion graphics in After Effects and in code (Remotion), so a series keeps one consistent look. I also design what surrounds the video: thumbnails, identity and social graphics.
My skill is using AI with the editing tools I know (Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, CapCut, Photoshop): Claude for transcripts, cut plans and captions, and Kling, Veo, Midjourney and ElevenLabs for shots, images and voice. That keeps turnaround short without giving up editorial judgment.
Recent work: a podcast episode that passed 12K views in its first week on a 440-subscriber channel, and a reel with 1.9M views. I come from web development, so technical subjects are familiar. Native Spanish, fluent English (C2). Available for freelance or full-time, and I can start right away. Portfolio: karimocb.github.io/portfolio
A 55-second introduction about me. I wrote, recorded and edited it, and built every animated graphic in code with Remotion, so the type, timing and colours stay exact and can be reused across a series. It also shows identity, thumbnail and social pieces I designed. https://youtu.be/ijf3WWBFaKk
A selection of my work for podcasts, YouTube channels and brands: long-form and short-form edits, animated captions, motion graphics and design. The edit, motion graphics and design in the reel are mine. AI is part of how I work (transcripts, cut plans, captions, generated shots and voice inside real edits). https://youtu.be/wk8U5pirjjI More work: karimocb.github.io/portfolio
Three thumbnail options for an episode of a Spanish-language interview podcast, delivered for A/B testing, each with a preview at the small sizes YouTube shows on phones and in the sidebar. Built from real frames of the episode (frame selection, cut-outs, light matching and type), with no generated look. Each variant tests a different idea: one face and a question, two faces and a phrase, and the episode's key word.
Weekly Spanish-language interview podcast, recorded with several cameras. What I did: cut the full episode from the transcript first, so the story was set before any graphics; then the multicam edit, animated captions, sound, and a short trailer for social. The episode passed 12K views in its first week on a channel with 440 subscribers. Full episode: https://youtu.be/869qMLbUbbw Trailer: https://youtu.be/pVZsA_xM8oU
Lead the content team: client communication, planning and delivery dates, review of scripts, edits and thumbnails. Still in the edit every week, and I build our editing tools with AI and code: transcripts, captions, animated graphics. Before this role (from September 2023) I was the agency's video editor and scriptwriter: podcast and YouTube episodes, reels and Shorts, documentaries, brand films and trailers.
