Which of your past campaigns are you the most proud of, why? Which failures did you encounter, and how did you learn from them?
One standout question they asked was: "How do you infuse emotion into your edits?" It wasn’t just about technical skill—it was about storytelling. They wanted to understand how you connect with an audience, how you use pacing, music, and visual rhythm to evoke a feeling. It really highlighted their focus on content that resonates on a deeper, more human level.
