✅Expert-vetted & pre-screened by the Upwork team for the top 1% of Product Management talent and Fractional CTO / Technology consultant working with enterprise clients, PE, VC

🎬The 30-second version: I'm a digital agency founder with extensive experience in video editing, digital marketing and AI video generation.
My work has made my clients over 5M+ views on social media platforms (YouTube, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook). I specialise in producing high-quality and compelling video content for businesses, entrepreneurs and creators, looking to grow their social media presence, or build a successful YouTube channel. 🚀
Let's connect and build something long-lasting!
_________
The longer "sit-down-with-a-coffee" version:
So... this is Adrian! It's a pleasure to meet you! Based on what I have learned about myself from past and current clients - most of them have chosen me because of me being transparent, goal-oriented, and results-driven.
Video editing is a craft which can definitely satisfy all your senses, but in social media marketing, that's not always enough. Stats and metrics are the thing that separates a good video... from a special video.
🛠️Tools and Software I use in my workflow:
→ DaVinci Resolve
→ CapCut
→ Canva
→ Higgsfield AI Video Generator
→ Google AI Studio (VEO 3 ; NanoBananaPro)
→ ElevenLabs
→ Slack + Trello
→ Gemini and Claude AI Assistants
I edit all types of content - Long-form:
→ Podcasts
→ Talking-head videos
→ Videos, built entirely by me from scratch, with only a script in hand
Short-form:
→ Videos for brands
→ Ads
→ Repurposed Longs-to-Shorts
→ Promotional videos
→ Videos that have been filmed by me, and edited afterwards
Feel free to contact me to shoot me a message any time!

With 20+ years in ALL things Marketing - you name it, I've most probably done it - I've come to realize the power of authentic connections and attraction marketing as the antidote to the trust recession we're in. That's the real future of Marketing and Sales.

Another role I'm interested in is coaching and mentoring entrepreneurs in implementing business systems, automations, and marketing strategies to boost performance and skyrocket their profits.
