Hi everyone, my name is Chris Ormondroyd & I’m a UK-based video editor with 6 years of professional experience in marketing agencies and production companies, now focusing on working with indie game developers.

I create trailers for Steam pages, social media, and game launches - with a focus on pacing, highlighting the USP, and helping games present well so that viewers understand the core gameplay loop.

If you’re an indie dev who needs a trailer that helps convert wishlists into players, I’d love to help. In addition to video editing I can give plenty of advice on how to capture great gameplay (or I can record my own for those comfortable sharing builds).

A few examples of my work:

• Those Who Rule 2 (featured on Indie Gaming Hub + Turn Based Thursday’s 2026 Reveals Show) → 8,000+ wishlists in 2 weeks

• Forsworn (featured on IGN GameTrailers) → 1,500 wishlists in 2 weeks

• Seasons of Solitude (featured on Best Indie Game Trailers)

I’ve also worked on trailers featured on larger channels - including a Zelda fan trailer featured on NintendoLife and an Avatar: The Last Airbender edit that reached 145K views:

I can be brought on as a video editor or a producer. Pricing is tailored per project depending on scope and level of involvement - I’ll usually give a quick quote once I’ve seen the project.

If you’re planning a Steam page, Next Fest build-up, or trailer refresh, feel free to message me with your game.

I’ve got capacity for one more project this month and ongoing availability after that. Please let me know if you’d be interested 😄

Hello! My name is Chris Ormondroyd & I’ve been editing professionally for 5 years now at marketing agencies and video production companies. I’m UK based & moving into the video game side of the industry. I’m wondering if there’s anyone here who would like a trailer making for their steam page or socials for a heavily discounted fee?

Some examples of my work below:

1. Those Who Rule 2 on Indie Gaming Hub (and revealed in Turn Based Thursday’s 2026 Reveals Show) resulting in 8,000+ wishlists in 2 weeks - https://youtu.be/RfHNygxXbzo?si=A_Lk9_2cCkzZI2fC 
2. Forsworn on IGN’s GameTrailers channel - https://youtu.be/s7OclGx_I0w?si=b5-1h2EZt0BzVIGL 
3. Seasons of Solitude on Steam page - https://store.steampowered.com/app/3312670/Seasons_of_Solitude/

I’ve made some trailers on my own personal channel too (The Legend of Zelda one was featured on NintendoLife & my Avatar: The Last Airbender one has 145K views on YouTube) here’s a link if you’re curious - https://youtube.com/@chrisormondroyd6468?si=2XqPxBix9AXj2GgV

And this is my corporate freelance website for anyone interested - https://www.chrisormondroyd.co.uk

I’ve worked as both video editor and producer on trailers large and small so if you’re wanting a professional to help improve your sales please drop me a message 😄 Steam’s June NextFest is coming up & I’m really keen to support any indie devs here. 

I’m working on a game trailer through May but I’ll have time to jump on a second trailer this same month (and beyond), so could get the ball rolling now. And just a reminder that I’m happy to do this for a discount! Please let me know if you’d be interested 😄
