    Product Reel Editing | Green Tea
    Edited a product reel for a green tea brand, keeping the focus on the product itself with clean, well-lit shots and simple, steady framing. Trimmed and sequenced the footage for smooth flow between shots, balanced the color for a natural, appetizing look, and kept the pacing relaxed so the product has time to breathe on screen. Text overlays were added to highlight key details without pulling attention away from the visuals.
    Motivation & Inspiration Reels Edit
    Edited a set of motivational reels where every cut, zoom, and text pop was timed to hit with the words. Cinematic grading, tight pacing, and sound design that builds momentum designed to stop the scroll and leave an impact.
    A productive Day in My Life

    Edited this “Productive Day in My Life” vlog to feel as fast and energetic as the day itself. Cleaned up the jump cuts, graded the color, and locked the pacing to a trending sound so every beat hits. Added text overlays for the key moments and kept the transitions snappy the goal was to make people want to watch it all the way through.

    Eco Sips Refreshment Brand
    I created a motion graphics video for Eco Sips, a refreshment brand, blending bold visuals and fluid animation to capture their fresh, eco-conscious personality and bring their brand story to life on screen.
    The Rise and Ruin of the Coca Cola Family

    I created a documentary on the rise and ruin of the Coca-Cola family for Old Money Dynasty tracing how a fortune was built, the empire it created, and how it all eventually came undone. From humble beginnings to global dominance, this is a story of ambition, wealth, and the family dynamics that shaped one of the world’s most iconic brands and the cracks that eventually brought it all crashing down.

    Designed the packaging for Vaen Cosmetics' COMPLEXION – POREfecting Face Primer and created UGC content to showcase the product. The video highlights the primer's lightweight, translucent formula, its ability to minimize pores and control oil, and the matte, makeup-ready finish it leaves on the skin with the packaging design featured throughout the content.
