Isuru R.
Educational Graphic Designer & Video Editor
Most designers don't understand how people learn or what keeps viewers watching. I design clear educational graphics and high-retention video reels that explain ideas simply, delivered in 48 hours. If you run an online course, lead a startup, or head an NGO, you know the frustration: you spend hours trying to explain your curriculum or product to a designer, only to get back cluttered graphics or confusing video edits that lose the viewer in seconds. That delays your launches and hurts your credibility. Because I specialize in educational content creation, you don't need to hand-hold me through your concepts. At the same time, my day-to-day work guiding marketing strategy at a growing startup means I look at every visual through a practical growth lens: what makes people stop scrolling, what makes them actually understand, and what makes them take action. 📈 Proven Results ● Over 120 reels and short-form videos edited, with individual client reels reaching over 200k views on Instagram. ● Video ad campaigns built to keep acquisition costs low, achieving cost-per-click rates down to $0.10 USD. ● Clear educational graphics, cheat sheets, and carousels delivered with a typical first-draft turnaround within 48 hours. 🎨 Educational Graphic Design ● Clean infographics, process flows, and clear concept diagrams ● Educational carousels, cheat sheets, and student instruction sheets ● Slide presentations for online courses, webinars, and investor meetings 🎬 Video Editing & Motion Design ● Fast-paced Reels, Shorts, and TikToks with tight sound and text pacing ● Logo intros, concept explainers, and After Effects video trailers ● Paid video ads built to keep retention high and drive clicks 💬 What Clients Say "Isuru is a phenomenal designer whom we have worked with for over a year.
