Overview. A 75-second vertical talking-head reel cut from a public long-form video by Dan Koe, in the style of top short-form creator editors. Sample edit on public footage, not a client project. Footage credit: Dan Koe.
Goal. Turn one camera angle into a short that holds attention: the speaker framed in a card at the bottom of the screen while the idea plays out above him in motion graphics.
Challenge. One angle, one voice, and abstract ideas (offers, products, systems). Every idea needed a visual that explains it, not decoration.
Solution. Cut for pace first: silences and filler removed using word-level timings. Then the speaker sits in a rounded card with his head breaking out of the frame (AI matte), word-by-word captions, full-screen close-ups on the key lines, and motion graphics built for each idea: an inbox, a DM thread, product cards, a price tag. A quiet music bed and real sound effects only.
Result. A finished sample of the full talking-head to motion-graphics workflow, ready to adapt to any founder or creator brand.
