Documentary Video Edit

I have the complete batch of raw interviews, B-roll and supporting assets ready to go; what I need now is a polished documentary cut that feels immersive and story-driven. The finished piece should flow in a clear narrative arc rather than a purely journalistic or strictly cinematic montage.

Here’s what the job breaks down to:

• Cutting and trimming footage so each scene advances the story and keeps the pace tight
• Adding transitions and tasteful effects that enhance, never distract
• Full color correction and grading to unify the look across all shots

All source files are already in hand and neatly organized. I’ll supply a rough outline of the storyline plus any lower-third text, graphics or music that must appear. You can work in Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve or your preferred NLE—just deliver the final mastered file (1080p or higher) along with the editable project file so I can make minor tweaks later if needed.

Please tell me how quickly you could turn the first cut around and point me to a sample of a narrative or storytelling edit you’ve handled before.
