About

Hi, I’m Nikko Simon Lincuna, a freelance video editor based in Butuan City. I turn raw footage into tight, fast-paced edits for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, and longer-form YouTube videos—especially sports highlights that keep viewers locked in. I’m focused on strong hooks, clean pacing, captions, and polished final exports that are ready for your audience to watch.

I’ve been editing for 3 years, working with both independent clients and a US-based team where I handle everything from rough cut to motion graphics, color, audio cleanup, and delivery across time zones. I use Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, and CapCut to make every project look sharp and sound great, and I’m comfortable with multicam syncing, livestream clip formats, and highlight selection.
