WHAT IS YOUR TYPICAL TURNAROUND TIME FOR DELIVERING CONTENT AFTER RECEIVING A BRIEF?
I usually reccommend at least a 7-day turnaround period to ensure the video is being done at the upmost quaility.

CAN YOU SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE CREATING ENGAGING SHORT-FORM CONTENT FOR TIKTOK OR INSTAGRAM, ALONG WITH 2–3 LINKS THAT SHOWCASE YOUR FILMING STYLE OR AESTHETIC?
I’ve grown @darrathomas on TikTok to a community of 6,500+ followers with 2M+ views by creating relatable, visually engaging short-form content. My style combines clean aesthetic visuals with approachable storytelling, whether I’m sharing self-care routines, travel adventures, or fashion finds. I focus on capturing authentic moments that feel aspirational yet accessible, so my audience can connect with the content and see themselves in it. Here are a few examples that highlight my filming style and aesthetic:

What platforms do you think are best for promoting video content and why?
For my niche, the best platforms are TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, and Pinterest. TikTok is where I can grow quickly and tap into trends with content like thrift hauls, “what’s in my bag,” and mini-vlogs. Instagram is perfect for polished, aesthetic videos and business collaborations, while Stories and Carousels let me connect more personally with my audience.
If I had to focus on just two, TikTok and Instagram would be my strongest combo for growth and visibility.
