Mannengeheim

Mannengeheim (Men’s Secret) is a Dutch YouTube channel with over 35k subscribers, dedicated to helping women navigate the complexities of dating and relationships with men.

From June 2023 until October 2024, I worked as a video editor for Mannengeheim, creating 43 videos in total. The videos were typically 10–15 minutes long, requiring careful editing to keep the content engaging throughout.  I turned raw footage into polished and engaging videos, with a strong focus on storytelling, stock footage, animations and viewer retention.

My editing process involved:

  • Clean and engaging edits – Removing pauses, silences and other distractions to keep the videos flowing naturally.

  • Visual identity – Creating a consistent style through dynamic titles, intros, call-to-actions, captions and background music.

  • Storytelling with stock footage – Using libraries such as Storyblocks and Envato Elements to find footage that supports the topic, adds visual variety and sometimes creates symbolism.

"We've been working together for ~8 months now and are happy with the results. In the beginning we together figured out some different styles and processes, and we feel we nailed them down now.

Sonny is always quick to respond and implement feedback. Also we're happy that he comes up with his own ideas and suggestions for ideas and improvements."
