Hi, I’m Toufik Aftab, a detail-oriented video editor based in Mumbai with 1.5 years of experience crafting engaging content, especially short-form reels and documentaries. I specialize in storytelling through editing, motion graphics, and brand-building with emotional depth, using Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects to bring ideas to life.
I’ve collaborated with Think School (4M+ subscribers) to produce high-retention digital content and have experience delivering projects on tight deadlines while maintaining brand voice across multiple formats. I enjoy collaborating with strategists and writers to craft hooks, documentary-style edits, and visual storytelling that resonates, saves, and shares.
