About Lyan
I help brands and creators turn ideas into scroll-stopping video content. Based in Berlin, I work across the full creative pipeline: from concept and shoot to edit and publish, so you get one person who owns the whole process, not a handoff chain.
I've created content for global campaigns alongside Adidas, Ogilvy NY, and DFB, and independently grown social channels by 63–114% organically. I bring both the technical skills (Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve) and the creative instinct to make content that actually performs.
I typically work on: short-form social content, brand video edits, music videos, fashion films, and content strategy for Instagram and TikTok.
