I transform raw footage into high-retention content with stronger hooks, intentional pacing, clean motion and a finish designed to increase trust, clarity and action.
Selected work
A curated selection of work for Portuguese, English and Spanish-speaking audiences — from podcast repurposing and creator content to performance creative, authority videos and AI-driven animation.
Platform-native editing, captions and pacing adapted to the audience and market — without changing the visual standard of the work.

About
I am Matheus Modena, a video editor and content strategist focused on creating stronger communication through structure, rhythm and visual clarity.
My work combines editing, storytelling, motion design and AI-accelerated workflows to help founders, creators, agencies and brands produce content that feels intentional and professionally positioned across Portuguese, English and Spanish-language projects.
I work across healthcare, beauty, education, retail, personal branding and performance creative, adapting the editing system to the audience and business objective instead of repeating the same formula.
