Chris Santana
Editor
As a Videographer at Amazon and Meta (WhatsApp), I co-led and built the first global research videography program, producing engaging and informative videos for both internal and external audiences. I have travelled across various countries to film research interviews, capturing unique insights and stories - I've also delivered over 100+ videos for these markets.
With over 10 years of experience in video editing and production, I have collaborated with a range of blue-chip companies and agencies, including CNBC, HSBC, Marriott, Salesforce, M&C Saatchi, Discovery, and Accenture. My work spans both short-form and long-form productions, including notable projects such as Discovery+ series, The Great British Bake Off, and Border Force USA.
I am multilingual, with proficiency in editing videos in English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, French, and Italian. Passionate about storytelling, I specialise in crafting compelling narratives that resonate with audiences and effectively communicate insights.
