🎬 Viral YouTube Shorts – Entertainment Content Project Type: Client Project / Short-Form Content Editing My Role: Full production from research to final edit

🔍 Project Overview

This project involved creating a series of viral YouTube Shorts for a Polish channel, mainly focused on “Top 5 funniest…” ranking videos featuring fails, funny cats, and entertaining viral moments. One of the shorts was created in a trivia/facts format.
I was responsible for the entire production process — from topic research and scriptwriting to finding clips, generating voiceover, and final editing. Each short was created following strict retention-focused guidelines provided by the channel owner to maximize watch time and viral potential.
All videos were published on the channel and achieved strong organic performance, reaching from 17,000 to 75,000 views per video.
