🏆 Short-Form Editing Expert – 100% Job Success Score 🕒 6+ years of experience in short-form video editing ✅ Specialist in Reels, TikTok & YouTube Shorts ✅ Expert in AI video and AI-generated content ✅ Fast turnaround, clear communication, on-time delivery Helping personal brands, creators, and businesses grow with high-retention video content Hi there! I'm a short-form video editor with 6+ years of practical editing experience, now bringing that experience to Upwork. I specialize in transforming raw footage into Instagram Reels, TikToks, YouTube Shorts, talking head videos, and podcast clips that capture attention and drive engagement for personal brands, coaches, agencies, e-commerce brands, and SaaS founders. I work as a dedicated creative partner, handling every step from cutting and transitions to color grading, motion graphics, sound design, and final polish. I also bring 3+ years of hands-on experience with AI video generation tools, helping brands scale content production without scaling shoot days. There's nothing better than turning a pile of raw clips or a simple prompt into something a client is excited to post. That passion has kept me sharpening this craft for years, and it's what I bring to every project here. Accomplishments: ⭐️ Real-world video editing across multiple niches and platforms ⭐️ Working directly with AI video generation and editing tools ⭐️Comfortable working across US, Australian, and UAE time zones ⭐️ Strong grasp of platform-specific pacing; what holds a TikTok viewer's attention differs from YouTube Shorts, and I edit accordingly What You Get: ✅ Hook-driven, retention-focused edits for Reels, TikTok & YouTube Shorts ✅ Animated captions, subtitles & closed captions (English & Arabic) ✅ Motion graphics, animated titles, transitions & visual effects ✅ Professional color correction & color grading ✅ Sound design, audio cleanup, music & sound effects ✅ Platform-ready exports: 9:16, 1:1, 16:9 ✅ Multiple creative variations for ad testing Who I Work With: - Coaches, creators & podcasters (talking head videos, podcast clips, video repurposing) - E-commerce & product brands (product videos, UGC-style ads, Meta & TikTok ads, YouTube) - YouTubers (YouTube videos, Shorts, thumbnails, video editing & content repurposing) - Agencies & SaaS companies (social media video, ongoing monthly content) - Founders, executives & personal brands (LinkedIn video, thought leadership, founder-led content) My Process: - Step 1: You send your raw footage, references, brand guidelines and goals. - Step 2: I edit with strong hooks, platform-specific pacing, captions and sound design. - Step 3: I refine the edit based on your feedback until you're happy. - Step 4: Final files in the correct size and format, ready to post.
