My name is Cengiz. I’m a video editor with a passion for storytelling. I began my video editing career in Turkey editing soccer highlights before moving to Toronto, Canada at the age of 17 to pursue my dream of becoming a professional editor. I completed Film and TV production program at Seneca College, in 2013.
Since then, I have been working on a diverse range of projects including TV shows, promotional videos, product videos, and corporate videos.
In addition to my work as an editor, I’m also a passionate landscape photographer, capturing the beauty of the world around with my camera and always exploring new and creative ways to engage with the world and people to inspire myself as well as others.
I love to be a part of creative projects that challenge me and push my limits.
