Social & Content Creative

Make what brands post, in their voice

Own the short-form, fast-turnaround creative that lives on a brand's social channels: the posts, the scripts, the reactive moments, the series. It rewards wit, speed and a feel for platform culture, all of which you have.

The gap

what you would need to build

Platform-native craft and pace: short-form video, trends and formats, light editing, and producing a high volume without losing the brand voice.

How to get there

  1. Run a brand's social channel (a client's or a pro bono cause) for a month and learn the cadence.
  2. Get comfortable making short video: shoot, cut, caption, post.
  3. Build a portfolio of reactive and series content that shows range and voice.
