I edited the long-form documentary How Corruption Destroyed South Asia for 2 and 20, preparing it for release on YouTube. Working from interviews, archival clips and the client’s brief, my focus was on narrative clarity and steady pacing to make a complex topic accessible to a broad audience. The edit prioritized logical progression and readable visuals to support the film’s argument.
I sourced supplemental footage to fill visual gaps and ensured continuity between disparate materials. The edit work included structuring the piece into clear acts, tightening pacing where needed, and iterating on cuts with the client to incorporate feedback while preserving the documentary’s tone and intent.
On the technical side I executed SFX, sound design, color grading and final export to produce a broadcast-quality master. I balanced voice, ambience and effects for intelligibility, applied a consistent color treatment across sourced clips, and prepared platform-specific deliverables. The finished film has reached 254,069 views and 8,976 likes on YouTube, which provided a useful measure of audience engagement after release.
