    paper A Tiny Audience - Senior Video Editor

    Season 1 – Lead Editor
    Season 2 – Senior Editor

    For the first season of A Tiny Audience, I served as the lead editor, responsible for defining the overall structure, pacing, visual style, and narrative flow of the series. The show was produced with no scripts, requiring the editorial process to shape story, tone, and rhythm entirely in post-production. I led the editing of 22 episodes delivered within a two-month timeframe, establishing a consistent look and style while working under tight deadlines.

    Editorial responsibilities included organizing large volumes of unscripted footage, building episodes from the ground up, and making structural and storytelling decisions that directly impacted the final format of the show. The role required strong editorial judgment, fast decision-making, and the ability to create coherence and emotional continuity across episodes.

    For Season 2, I returned as an editor, contributing to the edit of 7 additional episodes, maintaining the established visual language and pacing while adapting to new creative directions and production needs.
