The client sent a plain 30-second talking video announcing her new Constitutional Law 101 class. I turned it into a documentary-style reel for Instagram, where every time she mentions something, a visual shows it on screen: the Constitution, the class date and time, the live Q&A, and all 27 amendments lighting up night by night.

What I did:

Planned each scene to match her script
Built custom animations (no stock templates)
Matched her caption style so it reads as one smooth video
Gave her footage a light film look so it feels like a mini documentary

Result: a scroll-stopping reel that explains the whole class in 30 seconds.
