📌 I help eCommerce brands, DTC stores, and dropshipping businesses scale their paid social with high-converting UGC video ads — built for TikTok & Meta, with AI in the mix wherever it moves things faster. I'm a UGC, Meta, and TikTok ads video editor with 3+ years in eCommerce video production and performance marketing. I go beyond editing footage — I research, strategize, script, produce, and keep iterating until your creatives actually convert. 🎯 UGC Video Ads for TikTok & Meta I create scroll-stopping UGC ads, VSLs, and direct-response creatives that feel native to the feed and drive real purchases. When live creator footage isn't available — or you need to scale fast — I tap AI video tools like HeyGen, VEO3, Kling, and Sora to produce realistic AI avatars, custom B-roll, and voiceovers. That keeps your creative pipeline moving with no delays and no added cost. 🎬 What I produce: UGC video ads for TikTok & Meta VSL & direct-response video ads AI avatar & AI UGC Hooks, subtitles, SFX & music 🔥 Why clients work with me ⭐️ 3+ years in eCommerce video production & performance marketing ⭐️ Full-cycle AI Native: research → strategy → scripting → production → iteration ⭐️ Attention-grabbing AI video generation ⭐️ Fast delivery, clear communication, reliable turnaround 📩 Hit "Message" — share your product and current ads, and I'll come back with a clear plan to scale your creative output.

I’m a professional video editor and sound specialist with 7+ years of experience helping creators, brands, and agencies turn raw footage into clean, engaging videos that actually hold attention. I’ve worked across YouTube, Meta ads, TikTok/Reels, and podcasts, focusing on edits that don’t just look good, but feel right. Strong pacing, clear storytelling, and crisp audio always come first. I’m also well across modern high-performing styles, including Alex Hormozi-style edits, fast-paced short-form, subtitles-driven content, and ad creatives built to convert. 🎬 What I can help with: • YouTube videos (faceless, commentary, cash cow, vlogs) • Long-form content with retention-focused editing & storytelling • Short-form content (Reels, TikTok, Shorts) • Branded ads & social campaigns • Explainers, promos & product videos • Motion graphics & animated text overlays • Interviews, testimonials & documentaries • Podcasts (video + audio cleanup) 🎧 Tools I use: Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop, Illustrator, and DaVinci Resolve I keep things simple, clean edits, quick communication, and work that does what it’s meant to do. If you want your content to look sharp, sound clean, and keep people watching till the end, send it through.

My name is Rogan Steele. I’m a Canadian-Kiwi freelance filmmaker and Director of Photography, currently based in Melbourne, Australia and working with clients around the world. I specialise in creating clean, cinematic visuals that help brands and businesses tell compelling stories. Over the past several years I’ve worked across a wide range of productions including: • Commercial and branded content • Corporate and medical productions • Documentary and interview storytelling • Studio product photography and video • Social media content and campaign visuals • Events and live productions Whether it’s a run-and-gun documentary shoot, a carefully lit studio setup, or a polished corporate video, I bring the same focus: creating visuals that feel professional, authentic, and engaging. At the end of the day, great video is about people. The reason we care about films, brands, and stories is because we connect with the people inside them. My goal on every project is to capture that connection in a way that feels natural and cinematic. If you’re looking for someone reliable who can help plan, shoot, and deliver high-quality video or photo content, I’d love to hear about your project. Feel free to reach out and we can chat about how to bring your idea to life. Cheers, Rogan

Event Designer specialising in 3D event design, stage and set design, event branding, and presentation design for live events, conferences, and exhibitions. I help agencies, brands, and event organisers bring ideas to life through high-quality 3D visualisation, turning rough concepts, mood boards, or sketches into clear, buildable designs. My work allows stakeholders to fully understand a space before it’s built, reducing risk, improving decision-making, and elevating the final experience. With a background in both creative design and technical event production, I understand how to balance bold ideas with real-world feasibility. From conference stages and exhibition stands to immersive brand activations and event environments, I design with both impact and delivery in mind. If you’re looking to create an event that stands out, aligns your team, and delivers a strong visual experience, I can help bring that vision to life.
