Luma Coffee: Reels Growth Campaign

A portfolio demonstration of how short-form video is planned as a system, hooks, formats, filming and editing, rather than one-off videos.

This is a self-initiated concept project created to demonstrate capability. The brand shown is fictional and no client names or performance data are represented.

Project overview

A concept short-form strategy: reel covers, hooks, storyboards, a shot list, an editing style guide and a monthly reel calendar, presented as a marketing deck.

Goals

  • Turn short-form from guesswork into a repeatable weekly system
  • Design reel covers that keep the grid looking intentional
  • Build hooks that earn the first three seconds
  • Make filming and editing possible without a full production crew

Creative process

  1. 01

    Format Design

    Define three recurring reel formats the brand can run indefinitely.

  2. 02

    Hook Writing

    Write and rank opening lines against curiosity, value and specificity.

  3. 03

    Storyboard & Shot List

    Frame-by-frame planning so a half-day shoot covers a full month.

  4. 04

    Edit System

    Lock pace, typography, colour grade and end card into a style guide.

  • Reel cover designs
  • Short-form content strategy
