I am Alberto Bernad, a documentary and fiction film editor with 15+ years in the industry. I trained at ESCAC in Barcelona and cut my teeth as an assistant editor on international productions like Buried, REC 2, and Mama (Guillermo del Toro / Andy Muschietti). Now based in Switzerland, I lead as an editor on documentary projects for RSI, independent producers, and festival circuits. I co-founded Primitive Films in Ticino and created DocuCraft, a podcast and YouTube channel sharing documentary editing craft through exclusive interviews with editors of Sundance and Netflix titles.
