Video Editor | Oliver Key 🗝️ @OliverKeyEdits

A quick test edit I created from previously unreleased footage of John Brooks reflecting on his experience at the 2014 World Cup ⚽️ The original piece was never posted because of restrictions surrounding the use of tournament footage. For this re-edit, I focused on John’s personal story combining his reflections 🤔 It’s a great example of how footage sitting in an archive can be restructured into a story that still feels relevant today 👀 Hopefully FIFA will not be looking for me… 😅 Here’s the edit. I also have a couple more pieces in the queue to share soon. #VideoEditing #Storytelling #ArchiveFootage #SportsContent #PostProduction

John Brooks visualization new edit 🎬 For this piece with former Bundesliga defender John Anthony Brooks, the goal wasn’t to over-edit the message 🙅🏻‍♂️ It was to let the words breathe 😮‍💨 John talks about visualizing moments before stepping onto the pitch, seeing situations in his mind before they happen 🧠 Minimal cuts - Smooth pacing - Clear storytelling #VideoEditing #PersonalBrand #SportsContent #Football #Storytelling #ContentCreator

@rebzstudio Thank you, Rebz!

The best edit is the one you barely notice 👀 For this project with John Anthony Brooks, the goal wasn’t flashy transitions or heavy motion graphics 👎 🎯 The objective was to make his morning routine easy to follow for a broad audience while keeping the focus entirely on the story To achieve that, I: 🌍 Added English subtitles for wider accessibility. ✂️ Kept the edit clean and distraction-free. 👀 Used simple on-screen text and subtle visual hierarchy to make the information easy to scan. 🎯 Focused on clarity over effects. Not every edit needs to scream for attention. Sometimes, simplicity creates the best viewing experience 😮 #VideoEditing #ContentCreation #SportsContent #Football #Storytelling

@sashank_mohan Appreciate it Mohan!

@Hadadbiz Appreciate it, Hadad🤝

🎬 Great visuals catch attention BUT - Great sound creates emotion ❤️‍🔥 For this project, I rebuilt the entire soundscape from scratch because the original recording couldn’t deliver the feeling the visuals deserved 🙅🏻‍♂️ 🔊 Ambience • Breathing • Footsteps • Movement • Message gun etc Every sound has one purpose: to make you feel the moment, not watch it🫀 That’s the level of immersion I aim for in every edit 🎯

@zuyworld Love it! 🔥

Recent Brand Commercial 👀 For this piece, I wanted to create a different feeling than you’d normally expect from sports content 😮 Instead of fast cuts and aggressive music, I leaned into a calmer pace, warm color grading, and subtle sound design to create contrast ➗ I also blended into the sequence few AI-generated shots, curious if you can spot them 👀 Always fun exploring new ways to tell a story while keeping the edit natural 🏃 #VideoEditing #ColorGrading #DaVinciResolve #SportsContent #CreativeEditing #Storytelling #AI

A quick edit for TIOTIO Paddle Club 🎾 Showcasing one of their trainers and giving the audience a chance to get to know the people behind the brand 👀 Sometimes, it’s the simple edits that help build a stronger connection between a brand and its community 🤝

Sorry, but I have to say this - Color grading isn’t about making footage look “cool” 👀 For this commercial piece, my goal wasn’t to create "the most cinematic grade possible" ❌ - It was to REINFORCE THE STORY 🥊 The athlete pushing through fatigue, impact, recovery, and repetition ⭕️ So every grading decision served that emotion: ◆Deeper shadows - for weight and intensity 🔹Cooler tones - to push it away from glossy, towards disciplined 🔶Stronger contrast - for impact and focus ⬛️ A raw & gritty atmosphere - that feels earned, not polished The reference wasn’t random “moody” images 👎 It was the visual language of brands like Nike, adidas, and ASICS - where color never distracts, it STRENGTHENS THE STORY🔥 In the end, every creative choice should answer one question: HOW should the audience FEEL? 🤔 •Editing shapes the journey 🧭 •Sound builds the tension 😮 •Color reinforces the emotion 😳 Most viewers won’t consciously notice any of these layers on their own 🙅🏻‍♂️ But they’ll remember how the story made them feel 🙋🏻‍♂️

New commercial project featuring professional boxer Fabian Thiemke, in partnership with OrthoMechanik⚒️ What I enjoy most about projects like these is that the edit isn’t really about boxing 🥊❌ It’s about finding the emotional thread that connects everything together 🔗 For this commercial, I took the following direction: Struggle → Recovery → Return 🔁 Every creative decision was built around that feeling 👀 🔸contrasting sound design 🔹changes in pacing 🗯️ movement between calm and chaos The goal was to make the viewer feel the weight of the session, the exhaustion, and ultimately the relief that comes with recovery 💪 That’s what I enjoy most about editing 🔥 Not assembling clips 👎 RATHER - Building stories that make products feel meaningful instead of simply visible 🫡

@Hadadbiz Biceps 💪

@teamfilmmakers Hustling 🔥

@teamfilmmakers Hooked me immediately ngl 😎

@teamfilmmakers I love the intro!

@teamfilmmakers Appreciate it, Archie!

🎬 Quick before/after from a recent reel for Sebastian Trimborn and OrthoMechanik 🛠️ The goal wasn’t to create another sports edit 🙅🏻‍♂️ The goal was to show what recovery ACTUALLY looks like behind the scenes with the help of OrthoMechanik ✅ The challenge? 👀 I received a collection of random phone footage, and unscripted moments captured throughout the process 😑 🔎 My job was to find the story in random footage 🔊 Audio cleanup + overlay text 🎨 And finally - CC with grading Sometimes editing isn’t about making footage look better 🚫 It’s about finding the story and making people care about it 🧠

@IGrigorevskii Thanks Ivan, appreciate it!

🎬 Here’s a quick before/after from one of my latest projects. This is a small glimpse into what the timeline looked like before all the visual and sound work 👀 The challenge wasn’t adding effects 🙅🏻‍♂️ The challenge was building a strong narrative and capturing the feeling the story needed to convey 🧠 🧩 Story first. 🎵 Then sound. 🎨 Then visuals. Everything else is there to support the emotion 👓
