BEHIND THE SCENES 🎥 | Creating UGC Content for CANVA 💰 filming, editing, & brand feedback
A day in my life as a content creator!📲💸 In this video I'm taking you behind the scenes of a UGC collaboration I recently completed for @canva! From me creating content, editing on desktop, and I'm even sharing the actual feedback I received from the brand after submitting my work!
If you've ever wondered what a day in the life of a UGC creator actually looks like, or if you're curious about getting paid to create content WITHOUT needing a huge following or posting to your own social media—this one's for you!
Disclaimer: This video is NOT sponsored by Canva, I was only paid to create content exclusively for this UGC project to share with you! All opinions are my own🫶🏽

From full-time nanny to full-time content creator and creative strategist—I'm proof that ANYONE can build a career in the creator economy. If I can do it, so can you!🩷
