Vena Lois
@venalois
I am a video editor specializing in storytelling for social, documentary, and marketing content.
What I'm looking for
I am a video editor with four years of professional experience crafting short- and long-form narratives for documentaries, short films, podcasts, and marketing campaigns. I use Adobe Premiere Pro and industry-standard tools to turn raw footage into polished, audience-focused content.
I currently work as a Senior Video Editor (remote) and have held video editor and reel-creator roles across agencies and production houses. I was selected among the top 50 creators in the first stage of the TikTok MENA Hub competition and have built an engaged social audience through short-form content.
I bring strong storytelling instincts, technical skills in color grading, audio editing, multi-camera workflows, and content strategy to collaborative teams. I deliver on tight deadlines, enjoy refining visual composition, and aim to produce work that connects with viewers across YouTube, reels, and social platforms.
