Description

YouTube Video Editor | Audience Retention, Storytelling & Growth

I’m a video editor and content creator with 7 years of hands-on experience on YouTube. I run my own YouTube channel, CG Play, with over 129,000 subscribers, and have produced videos that reached 200K, 400K, 500K+ views.

My experience goes beyond editing. I specialize in studying and applying editing techniques focused on audience retention, storytelling, pacing, and viewer engagement to create videos that capture attention and keep people watching.

By managing my own channel, I’ve gained practical experience in the entire YouTube content creation process, from understanding audience interests and developing content strategies to editing videos and analyzing performance. I continuously study specialized techniques to improve retention, strengthen storytelling, and increase a video's potential for reach and growth.

What I bring to your videos:
- Retention-focused editing designed to keep viewers engaged.
- Engaging storytelling, pacing, and strong openings.
- Creative use of sound effects, music, memes, and visual elements.
- Editing decisions guided by viewer behavior and content goals.
- Practical knowledge of YouTube strategy, audience engagement, and video performance.
- A creator's perspective: I understand that great editing is not just about making a video look good, but making people want to keep watching.

My goal is to help creators transform raw footage into compelling content that holds attention, delivers value, and maximizes its potential to reach a wider audience.

I don't just edit videos — I understand what makes YouTube content work.
