About me:
Hello! My name is Mauri de Haro and I am a video editor and content creator. I am originally from Barcelona but after completing my studies in film, I relocated to Toronto, Canada. In Toronto I worked in post-production doing video editing and color grading for brands like Microsoft, Lamborghini, Air Canada or Longines.
My background in post-production in combination with my experience being on film sets gives me a wider perspective and understanding in the video creation industry.
Over the last 7 years I have been refining my video editing process and methodology. And now I am ready to share it with you. In this course, you’ll learn practical tips to help take your editing to the next level and allow you to increase your editing rates.
