Vertical & social · Content strategy

Built for the feed

Alongside long-form series, YKL plans, shoots and cuts vertical-first content engines — formats designed to post fast, test hard and scale across Instagram, TikTok and Shorts.

Case study Ketone-IQ

Race-day content, cut for the feed

Viral vertical content generation for Ketone-IQ. YKL embeds with athletes and the pit crew on race weekends, captures runner interviews, BTS and finish-line moments, and turns them around as a ready-to-post 9:16 series. That includes the Coffee & Chill LA Marathon recovery event.

Creative direction

Idea first. Then the edit.

YKL leads the creative, not just the camera: we shape the concept, build the look and carry it all the way through to delivery.

01

Concept & format

Show formats, campaign ideas and episode structures built to hold up across a season.

02

Treatments & boards

Look books, scripts, shot lists and storyboards so everyone signs off on the same picture.

03

Show packages

Logos, title opens, lower thirds, key art and thumbnails that make a series recognizable.

04

On-set direction

Talent direction, interview producing and a crew that knows the edit before it starts.

Food · Product · Commercial

Make it look irresistible.

Menu launches, product demos and spots for food, CPG, gear and beauty brands. Lit for texture, shot for appetite and cut to sell — then cut down again for every feed.

Aerial cinematography

The shot from above.

Drone coverage built into the production, not bolted on: event and venue reveals, real estate and architecture, travel and destination pieces — from the LA skyline to the Adirondacks to the coast of Spain. Shot, graded and cut in-house.
