THAT'S THE LAYER THIS WORKSHOP TEACHES.
Cut dead frames before speech starts. Start in motion. Engineer visual intrigue in the first 90 frames so the viewer never swipes away.
Pacing isn't just fast cutting. It is rhythm, contrast, breath, and knowing when to let an emotional or visual beat land with weight.
Attention decays every 4 to 6 seconds. Insert micro-resets—focal shifts, sound drops, unexpected angles—to perpetually reset focus.
Deliver the emotional or commercial conclusion cleanly. An edit that doesn't stick the landing wastes the entire retention curve.
One day. One structured workflow. One edit reviewed by a mentor.
Welcome, workstation setup, raw footage ingest, and project brief unpacking.
Analyzing visual hooks, drop-off curves, and first 3-second retention mechanics.
Cutting for rhythm, micro-resets, narrative tension, and momentum management.
Pause, reset, lunch, and discussions with the 88GB creative team.
Layering sound effects, audio ducking, kinetic graphics, and visual hierarchy.
Dissecting high-performing commercial edits and organic viral timelines.
Speeding up transcript cuts, motion tracking, cleanup, and ideation using AI tools.
Hands-on edit session followed by direct over-the-shoulder feedback from mentors.
Press coverage, commercial campaigns, and creative industry recognition.

Our work has been featured across creative industry publications including Exchange4Media, with commercial campaigns recognized for creative storytelling and visual craft.
