Marta Velasquez

Premiere, Editor,

Meet Marta, an Emmy-nominated editor celebrated for her compelling storytelling, emotional depth, and cinematic instinct. With over 15 years of experience—most notably as Lead Editor and Creative Director at VICE—she brings precision, creativity, and a sharp editorial eye to every project.

Her portfolio spans a wide range of formats, including feature documentaries, current affairs, digital shorts, and branded content. Notable credits include The Dangerous Rise of Andrew Tate (BBC), Chemsex (Grierson-nominated), On a Knife Edge (OMA & BMA winner), and The Shed at Dulwich (Digiday, OMA & BMA winner). With over 40 nominations and 15 wins, her work continues to resonate—most recently with the documentary Spartan Bare Knuckle, as a finalist at the Broadcast Media Awards 2025.

Marta is highly versatile, thriving on shaping a narrative from rushes through to delivery. Her workflow expertise includes multicam editing, archival-heavy projects, and international collaborations. She has a strong instinct for sound design and pacing across both short- and long-form content, and she frequently supervises all stages of the post-production process.

Fluent in Spanish and highly proficient across Adobe Creative Suite, Marta combines creative vision with technical excellence. Known for her calm presence, collaborative approach, and commitment to quality, she works seamlessly with directors, producers, and commissioners alike.

From bold investigations to intimate human stories, Marta brings integrity, versatility, and a storytelling flair to every edit.
