Footage Review and Selection: Reviewed raw footage from the shoot, selecting the most engaging and visually appealing shots to craft the narrative effectively.
Storytelling Through Editing: Edited the footage into a cohesive, impactful commercial that clearly communicated CarShield’s value proposition while maintaining a professional and approachable tone.
