TikTok / Shorts Talking-Head Edit with Animated Captions

A fast-paced talking-head edit built for short-form platforms like TikTok and YouTube Shorts. The raw footage was a single locked-off shot, and I turned it into a dynamic piece that holds attention with a new visual every 2-3 seconds.

What I did:

Cut pauses and filler for tight pacing
Added bold, animated pop-up text to emphasise key words
Used punch-in zooms and a blurred-background treatment to vary the framing
Added a full-screen cutaway to break up the talking head
Matched the on-screen text to the speaker’s rhythm and energy

Tools: Premiere Pro, CapCut (delete whichever you didn’t use for this piece)

I edit short-form content for creators and brands who need polished, scroll-stopping videos on a regular schedule. If you need a similar edit, let’s talk.
