Colonial America:
From Wilderness to Civilization
This is a six-episode documentary series exploring the harrowing events of America’s early founding. Each episode tells the story of the lives and hardships of those who bravely crossed the Atlantic. In my role as Lead Editor, I helped craft scripts, pacing, structure, and tone. I also provided creative direction to our VFX team and assisted in designing text elements.
