About Siva

I am a Singapore-based Video Editor with 17+ years of professional experience across broadcast television, feature films, documentaries, infotainment shows, corporate videos, and digital content.

My work includes editing the internationally acclaimed feature film “My Magic” — selected for the Cannes Film Festival (Palme d’Or Official Competition) and Singapore’s official submission to the Oscars. I have also edited numerous TV programmes and specials for Mediacorp, including travel shows, cooking series, dance competitions, and game shows such as Rusiyo Rusi Season 2, Ithu Enna Pattu, and Dhool 2008.

I run a full professional editing setup at my home studio, equipped with high-performance hardware, broadcast-quality monitoring, and a high-speed internet connection, allowing fast file transfers, remote collaboration, and quick turnaround delivery.

I am deeply passionate about editing — shaping stories, refining emotions, and bringing visuals to life. I love collaborating with clients, both locally and internationally, and I approach every project with creativity, precision, and care.

Beyond broadcast, I deliver high-quality edits for corporate clients, events, commercials, interviews, documentaries, and social media campaigns. My strengths include storytelling, pacing, colour grading, sound design, multi-camera editing, and maintaining consistent quality even under tight deadlines.

I am reliable, easy to work with, and fully committed to producing professional videos that meet your vision — whether it’s a short promo, a long-form documentary, or ongoing editing support. I welcome long-term collaborations and meaningful creative partnerships.
