THE MECHANICS
OF STORY.
I am Zabid Al Muttaki — a Senior Video Editor and Full-Stack Software Developer from Bangladesh. With over 5 years of post-production experience at Drik Picture Library, I specialize in crafting high-impact visual narratives for international development organizations and global brands.
I approach editing as the ultimate rewrite of a story. Working deeply across DaVinci Resolve Studio, Adobe Premiere Pro, and After Effects, my work is grounded in intentional pacing, emotional resonance, broadcast-grade color grading, and surgical sound design. Over the years, I have edited campaigns and documentary films for partners including UNICEF, WaterAid, World Bank, UNOPS, Swisscontact, GIZ, and Coca-Cola.
Holding a B.Sc in Computer Science & Engineering, I uniquely combine creative intuition with technical problem-solving. Instead of accepting manual bottlenecks in creative workflows, I build dedicated software and automation scripts to solve them.
