About
Muhammad Barikh.
Video editor and videographer based in Malaysia and available to travel worldwide. I produce short-form, brand, event and aerial content for businesses and organisations.
Profile
I edit and produce video for brands, agencies and organisations, with a focus on content that is clear, well paced and built for the platform it lives on.
My work covers short-form social content, corporate and event coverage, educational video and aerial footage. Clients have ranged from property developers, clinics and fashion labels to a financial education company, a non-profit and a state government office.
I graduated in graphic design from Management & Science University (MSU). That training still shapes how I edit: careful composition, consistent colour, clean typography and a clear hierarchy of information on screen.
Most of my projects have been delivered remotely or in hybrid teams, so I work well with written briefs, structured feedback rounds and fixed deadlines. When a project calls for it, I also handle filming, drone work and live-stream setup.
