Hi, I’m Jesse Slykerman, a videographer and editor with thousands of hours inside DaVinci Resolve. I’ve built streamlined workflows that let me edit up to 10× faster with buttery smooth playback on any machine.

My teaching style is simple: clear, direct, and immediately actionable.
No fluff, no filler — just systems that help you edit like a pro right away.

I still remember the first time I opened DaVinci Resolve — I was completely lost. Every button, every tab, every setting felt confusing. I’d spend hours just trying to make a simple cut look right.

What started as a hobby quickly turned into client work. My first paid project? Filming and editing a wedding while still in high school. From there, I launched my own videography and media business, slowly building it year after year.

I’ve used everything — from Pinnacle Studio and Adobe Premiere Pro to Final Cut Pro, even iMovie — but once I switched to DaVinci Resolve, I never looked back.

Today, I split my time between editing real estate videos for a local business and running JCUT Media, my own videography brand where I handle everything from weddings to promos and highlight reels.

After spending thousands of hours inside DaVinci Resolve, I’ve mastered exactly what every tool, button, and panel does — and more importantly, when to use them.

⚙️ The Truth That Changed Everything

When I started, I was editing on a slow, underpowered laptop. Playback lagged constantly. Rendering took forever. It drove me crazy.

But instead of giving up, I spent years experimenting, testing, and refining until I built workflows that let me edit up to 10× faster, with buttery smooth playback — even on average machines.

That became the foundation of everything I teach today.

You don’t need expensive hardware or years of editing experience to create professional results. What you need are optimized workflows, smart shortcuts, and a system that works for you — not against you.

My workflows don’t just save time; they help editors take on more projects, deliver faster, and earn more — without burning out.
