Javier Estévez
Film and television editor with over twenty years of experience in narrative fiction and more than 2,000 hours of editing experience. I have specialized in high-impact series as lead and supervising editor: from Los Archivos del Cardenal and El Reemplazante to La Jauría, 42 Días en la Oscuridad, El Presidente, Isla Oculta, Delirio (Colombia), and Baby Bandito-productions distributed by Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, and VIX. I have also edited internationally acclaimed feature films, including La Vida de los Peces (Goya Award winner), Stefan vs Kramer-the highest-grossing Chilean film of all time-and trailers for international productions such as Los 33, distributed by Warner Bros. I have also specialized in narrative reconstruction in post-production: deep content restructuring, episode reorganization, redefinition of dramatic arcs, and enhancement of narrative objectives. I lead editing teams and design workflows for long-running productions in Chile, Mexico, and Colombia.
