About Luiz Zen

With over 20 years of experience in video production and editing, I am passionate about creating captivating and impactful visual stories for diverse audiences and platforms. I have honed my skills in post-production, animation, and visual effects, and have been recognized for my innovative work with a prestigious award from the Cannes Corporate Media & TV Awards. Currently, I work as a video editor at Jellysmack, a global creator company that empowers video creators to reach millions of viewers on social media. I am responsible for editing and optimizing videos for various channels and formats, ensuring high quality and compliance with platform guidelines. I also leverage my knowledge and interest in UX design, which I am pursuing through a Google certificate, to empathize with audiences and identify the best ways to engage and retain them. I enjoy working with a talented and diverse team that shares my vision of using design as a tool for positive change and impact.
