Meet Preston Bear – Video Editor & Motion Designer
This video is a personal intro showcasing not just who I am, but also what I can do as a video editor and motion designer. Every single element—from the script and edit, to motion graphics, visual design, and sound timing—was created entirely by me, from scratch. No templates. No presets. 100% original.
My Editing Philosophy
I treat every project like a partnership, not just a job. That means I don’t just make things look good—I make sure they perform.
I regularly check audience retention graphs to analyze how viewers interact with content. Why? Because even the most beautiful edit isn’t effective if people don’t watch it to the end. I use that data to adjust pacing, visuals, and structure so viewers stay hooked.
🎨 Motion Design That Grabs Attention
I’ve honed my skills in motion design to make videos more dynamic and easier to follow—especially when explaining complex topics. From smooth transitions to eye-catching animations, I add just enough flair to elevate the message without distracting from it. (Okay… sometimes I get carried away—but I know when to dial it back 😉)
🎥 A Director’s Eye for Pacing
My background in filmmaking—as both a director and editor—taught me the power of timing. Even in a simple talking-head video, pacing makes all the difference. I blend slow and fast moments to create rhythm, emphasis, and impact.
🧰 Tools I Use

Whether you need branded YouTube content, educational videos, or cinematic edits, I bring creativity, strategy, and passion to every frame.
