    Video EditorUNiDAYS
    London, United KingdomFull Time
    I am the main editor in the video department team that creates video content to gain attention from our Gen Z audience as well as editing clientele videos from the big brands in partnership with UNiDAYS. When I joined the company, 1 of the main targets was to gain 12,000 subscribers in a year. I managed to gain over 10,000 subscribers in two months due to the connections I have with popular influences such as Jazzie Zonzolo, Yung Filly and Arnold Jorge. Arnold and Jazzie created shows such ‘Jazzies barbers’ and ‘Your Flix and Chill’ which are series I have mainly edited as well as filming due to the video team being small with little amount of camera operators. I brought Yung Filly to host the ‘Footasylum x UNiDAYS ft Yung Filly + WIN A £1.2K FOOTASYLUM VOUCHER’. The video was such a success it got nominated for ‘Best Use of Data’ and ‘Best Content Marketing Campaign’ at the 2019 Performance Market Awards. JOB ROLE: Editing Gen Z content such as documentaries, comedy series, game shows and interviews. The videos were mainly posted YouTube (10,000+ subscribers), Facebook (800,000 + followers) and Instagram (100,000 + subscribers) Quick turnaround edits for big brands such as Nike, Footasylum and more.
