Editing Workflow Guide

"Edit a clip from raw to posted in 20 minutes."

80% of the impact of a surf clip happens in the edit, not in the water. You can have incredible footage and ruin it with a bad edit — or mediocre footage and make it look incredible with a great one.

This guide gives you the 5-step system I use to edit every single clip I post. Cull, hook, pacing, colour, captions. 20 minutes from raw footage to finished post.

Including the exact CapCut colour grade settings, music selection framework, and export settings for every platform.
