Umar Raza (‫Mein اقبال‬‎)

Video editor with over two years of hands-on experience across film editing, brand advertisement editing, fashion video editing, sound design, and motion graphics. Comfortable building a strong first assembly instinctively, without overthinking structure, and shaped less by formula than by close attention to current trends and visual style. Works exclusively in Adobe Premiere Pro, handling colour grading, motion graphics, text animation, effects, transitions, and sound design end-to-end on every project.

Video Editor & Creative Post-Production at Self-Directed (Present)

• Started on CapCut (PC), building a foundation in cuts, transitions, and core editing principles over roughly 8–9 months.
• Transitioned to Adobe Premiere Pro and developed working proficiency in colour grading, motion graphics, text animation, effects, transitions, and sound design through sustained tutorial-based self-study.
• Has worked in Adobe Premiere Pro for over a year and now handles all editing work exclusively on the platform.
• Has not yet completed a paid brand engagement; builds skills through self-initiated practice edits using footage sourced for editing practice and skills assessments.
• Produced original practice edits of fashion-brand footage in a personal visual style, applying colour grading and pacing distinct from the source material. Work from these projects is featured on a personal portfolio site and on Behance.
