KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a creative and motivated entry-level video editor with a strong passion for visual storytelling and content creation. I’m quick to learn, focused on detail, and I work hard to produce engaging, high-quality videos under deadlines using tools like Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, and CapCut.
My work includes editing short-form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, and YouTube Shorts—adding captions, transitions, music, and visual effects while optimizing for each platform. I’ve also edited educational and entertainment YouTube videos by improving pacing, audio quality, and visual storytelling, and I’ve designed thumbnails and incorporated motion graphics to increase viewer appeal.
