Hi, I'm Majid Velayati, a film and video editor, creative director, and visual storyteller based in Muscat, Oman, with 18+ years of experience across commercial video production, brand films, social media content, and post-production. I turn raw footage into clear visual narratives through pacing, shot selection, rhythm, sound-image synchronization, continuity, and emotional flow, collaborating closely with directors, brands, and creative teams to realize a precise post-production vision. These days I blend traditional storytelling with AI-focused workflows as an AI Video Evaluation Specialist, providing structured feedback on AI-generated edits and explaining why an edit lands or falls short from a storytelling perspective. I translate editor intuition into actionable notes for technical teams, and I approach editing as narrative structure, timing, attention control, and audience emotion.…Hi, I'm Majid Velayati, a film and video editor, creative director, and visual storyteller based in Muscat, Oman, with 18+ years of experience across commercial video production, brand films, social media content, and post-production.
