REC 2026 — PORTFOLIO
I partner with brands and creatives to produce websites and video content that's polished, purposeful, and built to connect — from the first idea to the final frame.
01 / SHORT FILMS
TRAILER OUT NOW
Action Short
A crude action short that doesn't waste a single frame. Gritty, fast, and deliberately rough. Every cut was made to keep the tension tight and the energy relentless, from the opening shot straight through to the end.

03 / WHAT I DO
Design and build, from copy to launch. You get a fast site you can update yourself, hosting sorted, live in weeks — not months. Both sites in the work section above were built this way.
Commercials and social content — shot, cut, graded and delivered in every format you need. I also take footage you already have and turn it into a finished ad.
Commercials, teasers and product films generated with AI and directed like real productions. A product launch film without the cost of a shoot day.
04 / HOW IT WORKS
Twenty minutes. You tell me what you're selling; I tell you exactly what I'd make, how long it takes, and what it costs.
I design, film, edit or generate. You see the work as it happens — not a big reveal at the end you can't change.
You get the finished site or films, the source files, and everything set up and running where it needs to live.
05 / ABOUT
I'm Akmal, a Video Editor & Creative Producer with a background spanning short film, content, and motion graphics. I specialise in turning raw footage and ideas into content that's sharp, intentional, and hard to scroll past.
06 / TOOLS
07 / START
Twenty minutes on a call and you'll leave with a plan — whether you hire me or not.
