Video Editor | 7 Years of Experience | Storytelling-Driven Editing
I'm Arel John Quijote, a video editor and director with 7 years of experience turning raw footage into content that actually connects with people. My background as a director shapes how I edit: I don't just cut clips together, I build a narrative, so every video I touch is paced with intention and built to hold attention.
Over the years I've worked across a wide range of formats and industries:
150+ real estate videos edited for CMS Photo, mixing talking head segments, walkthroughs, reels, and listing content
40+ short-form videos for Wired for Impact, repurposing long-form podcasts into scroll-stopping Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts content
Campaign work for major brands and public figures at Sicklab Studios, including episodes featuring Ahtisa Manalo, Miss Universe Philippines 2025
Color grading for short films screened at official film festivals, as well as mainstrea
Ongoing work with local brands and businesses in Tuguegarao City, covering promotional videos, business features, events, and social content
What I bring to a team:
Strong storytelling and pacing, backed by directing experience
Color grading skills refined through festival and commercial work
Comfortable across shortform, longform, real estate, podcast, and branded content
Motion graphics and content repurposing for multi-platform distribution
Fast, reliable setup: Legion 5i, 32GB DDR5 RAM, stable high-speed internet, ready to start immediately
I'm detail-oriented, fast to adapt to feedback, and treat every client's brand like it's my own. If you need someone who can take raw footage and turn it into something people actually stop scrolling for, I'm ready to help.
