    Aline Küstahler

    Editing has been a lifelong passion of mine.

    After studying at Zurich University of the Arts and Ravensbourne University London, I gained experience working with renowned Swiss production companies stories and EQAL. These experiences have shaped my approach to editing, combining a strong creative instinct with technical expertise and an eye for detail.

    With a diverse portfolio spanning documentaries, employer branding, commercials, and short-form content, I enjoy exploring different formats.

    I bring creative heart and a healthy dose of Swiss precision to every edit.
