Akil M.

Top Rated on Upwork with 100% Job Success, a 5.0 average across 26 reviews, and 1,280+ hours editing short-form video. I cut UGC and paid social ads for DTC brands in Adobe Premiere Pro and CapCut: TikTok, Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts, and Meta ad creative. What I've shipped: • Weekly ad creative at volume, 5 to 10 videos a week on retainer for DTC and ecommerce brands running Meta and TikTok ads • UGC and testimonial edits for DTC brands in the Netherlands (protein snacks), Malaysia (outdoor and camping gear), and the US (fintech) • A product promo edit that reached 200K views on Instagram • Long-form cut down to short: fitness programs, podcasts, online courses, and coaching content reworked into Shorts and Reels How I work: Full edit, not just clipping. Pacing, hooks, captions, sound design, and native 9:16 formatting for each platform. Most clients start with a small batch and move to a weekly retainer. I hit deadlines and I don't need chasing. 63 completed contracts, 5.0 average. Tools: Adobe Premiere Pro, CapCut, DaVinci Resolve.
