Short video ad editing in Kenya

Edit short advertisements from licensed, client-approved footage.

A CONCRETE EXAMPLE · ILLUSTRATIVE

Fictional edit VID-28 turns twelve owner-supplied clips into two 20-second vertical ads for a furniture maker: one stool assembly overview and one finished-stool detail reel. Output is two 1080×1920 MP4 drafts, two approved final exports and caption files where the destination supports them. This example format must be checked against the destination before delivery. Filming, product testing, unlicensed music, paid ad placement and structural-strength claims are excluded. The maker approves each product claim and any visible worker's image use.
