RBDM. Richard Mendoza · Video Editor

Hello, I'm Richard / Video editor / Short-form, long-form & ads

Raw footage in. Scroll-stoppers out.

I edit reels, YouTube videos, ads and AI-driven content for brands and creators, from the first cut to the final export. Pacing comes first, so viewers stay to the last frame.

About me

I cut for retention.

Hi, I'm Richard, a professional video editor who turns raw footage into compelling, high-performing visual stories.

I handle the full post-production process, start to finish. I work in Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects and CapCut, and I focus on pacing and rhythm so audiences are hooked from the very first frame.

Whether you need polished long-form videos or engaging short-form reels, I'm here to bring your vision to life. Let's collaborate.
