YouTube video editor from Algeria, working with creators worldwide.

I'm Youcef Touri — a freelance YouTube video editor specializing in long-form content for tech and education creators. I've edited 100+ videos for channels with audiences ranging from 10K to over 1M subscribers.

I edit like a viewer, not just an editor. Every cut I make is filtered through one question: would I keep watching? That mindset is what turns raw footage into videos that hold attention, drive subscriptions, and get recommended by the algorithm.

I take on a limited number of clients each month so I can give every project the attention it deserves. If you're a serious creator who wants an editor who's equally serious about your growth — let's talk.

Yes — I specialize in editing for Arabic-speaking YouTube creators across the MENA region. I work with Arabic text overlays, RTL motion graphics, and understand the content style preferred by Arabic audiences. I've worked with 1M+ subscriber Arabic tech channels and deliver results that match their audience's expectations.

How do I send you my footage? +
After we agree on the project, I'll share a Google Drive or WeTransfer link where you upload your raw footage, assets, and any reference videos. I handle everything from there and deliver the final file to the same folder. The process is designed to require minimum effort on your side.
