Shaping Emotion Through Visual Craft

"Editing is never just cutting footage together; it is finding the hidden heartbeat of the story and making the viewer feel every second of it."

I am Shushil Bastola, a multidisciplinary creative based in the scenic city of Pokhara, Nepal. My creative journey began with a curiosity for how moving images, sound, and graphic composition shape human emotion and tell stories that resonate.

Graduating from Tribhuvan University, I blend creative intuition with technical discipline. Rather than confining myself to a single narrow tool, I operate across the entire visual pipeline: designing brand graphics in Photoshop & Illustrator, bringing them to life through After Effects motion design, and editing cinematic narratives in Premiere Pro and DaVinci Resolve.

Frequently Asked Questions

Clear answers about workflows, tools, turnaround times, and file delivery.

I rely on an industry-standard creative stack: Adobe Premiere Pro for narrative and commercial video assembly, Adobe After Effects for motion graphics and kinetic typography, DaVinci Resolve for high-precision color grading, and Adobe Photoshop & Illustrator for graphic design and brand identity work.
You can upload your files via Google Drive, Dropbox, WeTransfer, or any cloud link of your choice. I download the assets, organize the folder structure, and back them up securely throughout the editing cycle.
Turnaround depends on project scope. A short-form Reel or TikTok edit typically takes 24 to 48 hours. Commercial promos, music videos, or detailed documentary edits usually take 3 to 5 business days for the initial draft. Deadlines are always locked and respected upfront.
Yes! Every project includes collaborative revision rounds to fine-tune pacing, music balance, color adjustments, and typography so the final master perfectly aligns with your creative vision.
