Available to hire
Hi, I’m Qianna Dookeran, a Toronto-based video editor with hands-on experience shaping documentary shorts and narrative projects. I love collaborating with directors to translate creative visions into compelling on-screen stories, using DaVinci Resolve, Premiere Pro, and Final Cut Pro to craft edits that serve the storytelling goals.
Over the years I have worked on projects like Guilty Pleasures and Seeker, coordinating post-production workflows, asset management, and cross-team communication. I enjoy building efficient pipelines that help teams deliver high-quality results on tight timelines and am excited to contribute to dynamic post-production environments while continuing to grow as a storyteller.
