Featured work

A flagship piece and the supporting cuts. Press play — everything runs inline.

AI Hello — Alisa

A speculative re-edit of an intro for AI Hello's creator, Alisa. Not a paid client project — I saw potential in the raw footage and cut it anyway.

How I got
here

My real name is Muhammad Ashhad Hussain. I'm an 18-year-old university student, and this is my professional journey so far.

In 2021, I started my online career as a virtual assistant and project manager for a mentor of mine. That's where I first got in front of Premiere Pro and After Effects, and I was hooked. I taught myself the craft from the ground up and went looking for real client work to build real experience.

That experience came fast through anime recap editing — including a channel that grew from 250K to 558K subscribers under edits I worked on — but the anime recap niche got crowded and underpaid just as fast. Then came AI-generated video editing, and as I had already been one of the few people using ChatGPT before it was popular, that experience helped me become one of the first editors comfortable working in this new niche. My expertise got me promoted from editor to team lead, training and hiring other editors as the work scaled.

By 2025, I knew I wanted more than a better rate. What I really wanted was to build something of my own. So I made a hard choice and left that role, then took a real shot at running my own AI agency — and it didn't work. So I came back to what I already knew, but this time something was different: I no longer wanted to do meaningless work anyone could do. So with the money I do have, I'm investing in this new chapter of my life.

The Replicator is where this chapter starts. A record of the work, building toward what I actually set out to do: achieve financial freedom, and then create opportunities for others to do the same.

What I do

  • 01Retention-first story edits

    Structure before polish. Every scene earns its place or it gets cut — pacing built around where viewers actually leave.

  • 02Podcast → long-form & clips

    Multicam sync, filler removal, B-roll layering, plus vertical cut-downs pulled from the same session.

  • 03Sound design & mix

    Dialogue cleanup, levelled mix, music beds and SFX that carry momentum without shouting over the host.

  • 04Colour & finishing

    Consistent grade across cameras and days, so a five-shoot vlog looks like one continuous piece.

  • 05Motion graphics & titles

    Lower thirds, callouts and title sequences built for your channel — not a template pack.

Investment

Projects typically start around $250–$450 depending on length and complexity — happy to give you an exact quote once I understand the scope.

Priced per video, not per month. Send me the footage details and I'll come back with a number.
