Can you walk me through your process for creating engaging digital content?

When I create digital content using CapCut, I focus on keeping it visually engaging and optimized for short attention spans. I begin with a clear idea or hook, usually something that is trending or relatable based on what I have seen performing well on TikTok or Reels. Then I collect or film my clips, making sure they match the tone or aesthetic I am aiming for. In CapCut, I start by trimming everything down to the most essential moments to maintain a fast pace. I use features such as auto-captions, sound sync, and trending transitions or filters to make the content feel current and polished. Music or sound is very important, so I choose audio that either reflects a current trend or emotionally supports the content. I also pay close attention to timing, ensuring that edits align with the beat to keep viewers more engaged. Before posting, I always watch the content back several times and ask myself, ‘Would I stop and watch this?’ If the answer is no, I adjust the pacing, text overlays, or introduction. My goal is always to create content that feels native to the platform, tells a clear story, and encourages viewers to watch until the end or engage with it

How do you stay updated on the latest social media trends and changes?

As someone who is naturally immersed in digital culture, staying on top of social media trends is part of my daily routine. I regularly watch TikToks and Instagram Reels to see what’s gaining traction in real time. I also follow creators, meme pages, and pop culture podcasts that break down trends and shifts in audience behavior. This helps me not just recognize what is trending, but also understand why it is working. I am quick to experiment with new features on platforms and keep an eye on how the algorithm is evolving, so I can adapt content strategies effectively.
