Pedro Calado

I am a Lisbon-based videographer and editor with a background in music production. I’m a graduate of the Lisbon School of Design, where I moved beyond the technical basics to focus on how sound and image work together to tell a story.

During my studies and recent projects, I’ve handled everything from live music performances and interviews to promotional product campaigns. Most recently, I worked on a curricular project as editor and sound designer for a short film — a task in which I was able to combine my Premiere Pro editing skills with my audio experience in Logic Pro to create a cohesive, audiovisual experience.

My Approach:

Because of my music background, I don’t treat audio as an afterthought. I make sure the “sonics” of a video — the pacing, the atmosphere, and the clarity — are as polished as the color grade.

Collaborative & Flexible:

I’m not here to impose a “style” on you. I prefer working closely with clients to figure out what they actually need. Whether we’re aiming for the slow, cinematic feel of a documentary or the fast-paced energy of social media content, my goal is to get your vision on screen.

The Toolkit:

My daily drivers are Premiere Pro and Logic Pro, with additional experience in After Effects and Lightroom for those extra finishing touches.

What I’m Looking For:

I’m particularly interested in the production and post-production of short films and documentary type projects. That said, I’m always open to discussing commercial or social media work where a clean, professional edit is the priority.
