2018–2023. Thumbnails, edits, sales films and online stores, made between classes.

Before I had a channel of my own, I spent six years making other people's videos work: for Bangladeshi YouTubers, personal brands and software companies abroad, and national companies at home.

Year

2018

My first clients were Bangladeshi YouTube channels. I edited their videos and designed their thumbnails while I was still a cadet.

From 2020 I worked internationally with personal brands and software companies, adding eCommerce websites to editing and thumbnails. By 2023 I was editing VSLs and producing marketing videos for national companies and local businesses. The tools grew with the work: Premiere Pro, After Effects, Photoshop and later Blender. At Faujdarhat I ran multimedia as Content Supervisor, and my editing won the Judges' Choice Award at the Quarantine Productive Fest by Engage.

Every hour in someone else's timeline taught me what holds attention. That's the skill behind my own 5M+ views, and the reason brands still hire me for VSLs and marketing films.

Who I worked with

2018–2020: Bangladeshi YouTube channels — video editing and thumbnail design. 2020: personal brands and software companies — eCommerce websites, video editing and thumbnails.

2023: national companies and local businesses — VSL editing and marketing video production. Along the way, recognition in awareness video competitions during my cadet years.
