I’m Robert Pearce, a video editor and camera operator with 3+ years of experience creating compelling short-form content for YouTube and TikTok. I’m based in Manchester and I enjoy bringing fast, engaging pacing to every edit—using strong visual storytelling, thoughtful sound design, and color grading that matches the creator’s style. I work end-to-end, from planning and shot composition to final delivery, adapting content for each platform’s audience. I’ve also directed and produced social media content, collaborated on creative projects, and supported channel production—whether it’s filming with Blackmagic 4K and Sony FX3/AV7, or editing in Adobe Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.
