This project was an editorial and finishing engagement for 2 and 20’s YouTube episode How to Actually Tax the Rich. Working in the role of editor, I assembled the raw footage into a coherent, paced narrative and handled all subsequent post-production stages. The goal was to create a clear, watchable piece suitable for YouTube distribution while respecting the client’s editorial direction.

I sourced additional footage to fill visual gaps and reinforce key points, then shaped the timeline for clarity and flow. Sound design and SFX were applied to enhance transitions and support the storytelling without overpowering the primary audio. A targeted color grade ensured visual consistency across sourced assets and original footage.

Final deliverables included polished exports optimized for YouTube along with quality control checks to verify sync, levels, and codecs. The uploaded video accumulated roughly 41,078 views, 1,878 likes, and 267 comments, providing a concrete measure of reach and audience response. Throughout the project I focused on precise execution and reliable delivery to meet the client’s publishing schedule.
