About Me
Michaela Pagazani is a freelance video & sound editor, VFX compositor, and motion graphic artist. Michaela has helped to piece together films spanning many genres and styles from developing a suspenseful soundscape for the 2020 horror short Meat, to working as picture editor to combine bright and beautiful footage together for Trashion (2019) a short documentary on sustainable fashion, as well as using her skills as a VFX compositor to digitally add in a crowd to a concert venue for As the Glitter Fades (2021) a short drama shot within pandemic restrictions. When not editing and designing, Michaela likes to spend her free time practicing martial arts, roller skating, and photoshopping her friends into snails.
Past Works
While initially setting her sights on cinematography and lighting, Michaela then found her passion in all things editing and taking the raw footage of production and helping to bring it to its final form. With experience picture and sound editing, as well as motion graphics and VFX compositing Michaela is well rounded in the post-production world
