I don’t just edit videos. I turn products, raw footage, UGC, testimonials, scripts, and ideas into performance-focused ad creatives designed to help DTC brands improve their paid social results. WHAT I FOCUS ON Meta Ad Creatives That Sell • Scroll-stopping 1–3 second hooks • Direct-response video ads • UGC and testimonial creatives • Product demonstration ads • Problem → Solution creatives • Pain-point and desire-based angles • Offer and discount creatives • Retargeting ads • Creative variations for A/B testing I HELP SOLVE PROBLEMS LIKE • Ads that people scroll past • Weak or boring hooks • High CPM but low engagement • Good products but poor creative • Low CTR and weak conversion • Creatives that look good but don’t sell • Running out of new ad angles to test I solve these through better hooks, stronger messaging, faster pacing, pattern interrupts, compelling visuals, social proof, and clear CTAs. MY PERFORMANCE CREATIVE PROCESS Research → Angle → Hook → Problem → Solution → Proof → Offer → CTA → Test Before editing, I think about why someone would stop scrolling and why they would want to buy. That means every creative has a purpose — not just a nice-looking edit. UGC + AI CREATIVE PRODUCTION I also use AI to help DTC brands produce more creative variations faster. • AI UGC videos • AI avatars and presenters • AI voiceovers • AI-generated B-roll • AI product and lifestyle visuals • AI product scenes • Script-to-video creatives • Creative concept variations TOOLS CapCut | ElevenLabs | HeyGen | Runway | Kling | Higgsfield | Sora | Nano Banana | ChatGPT My goal is simple: Create better creatives → Test more angles → Find winning ads → Help DTC brands sell more. If you’re looking for someone who understands that performance creative is more than video editing, I can help turn your product and marketing ideas into Meta ad creatives built with performance in mind.
