Kai Marsh
Video Editor & Colorist crafting cutting stories that hold the frame. Nine years of turning footage into films people actually finish watching.
Ninety seconds. Every frame earning its keep.
Eight cuts, four formats, one standard.
Trained on 200+ hours of raw footage. Still watches every frame twice.
I’m Kai Marsh, a video editor & colorist based in Los Angeles, CA — Remote worldwide. I work directly with directors, labels and brands to take a card full of footage to a cut that’s ready to ship — usually across all four tracks below, sometimes handing color or sound off to a specialist when the project calls for it.
The same five stages, every time.
Footage, audio and assets are organized, proxied and backed up before a single cut is made.
A rough cut finds the spine of the story — pacing first, polish later.
Trims, transitions and structure tighten around client and director feedback.
Grading and mix pass turns a locked cut into something that feels finished.
Exports for every platform, captioned and specced to how it'll actually be watched.
Notes from the review room.
“Kai turned four hours of raw concert footage into something that felt like a film. The pacing alone got us the playlist add.”
“Fastest turnaround we've had and the color grade made our product look twice the budget.”
“Gave notes on a Friday, had a client-ready cut Monday morning. Communication is as good as the edit.”
“The sound design on our short carried scenes that the picture alone couldn't.”
