Four frames from vertical Rocket League shorts with animated captions

Brief

Turn ordinary gameplay into short videos that hold attention: every clip has to tell something, not just show something.

Objective

To build a repeatable format for gaming shorts on TikTok and YouTube Shorts.

My role

Gameplay recording, clip selection, script, editing and captions.

Process

I record my own Rocket League sessions and keep a library of footage ready for editing. From it, I pick the moments that fit the story and cut them to vertical 9:16 format.

Each short is paired with a voice-over, created in CapCut, that tells either a fun fact or a short story. Animated, word-by-word captions keep the video easy to follow even without sound.
