106 days ago I made my first tweet Today I passed 500 followers My income doubled Started hiring for the first time all this can happen in just a little over 3 months It's kinda freeing and overwhelming at the same time Seeing all this gave me a peculiar reflection We all…
Didn't think hiring videoeditors would be so crazy One person messaged 30 sec after I posted, asking if I have already found anyone Multiple people claimed to be full time freelancers, but do not know what an invoice is One person still haven't sent the link to pay them for…
I delivered 12+ min talking head video in 19 hours after receiving the footage Client messaged me yesterday if I was able to make a video in less than 24 hours It was a very time sensitive video, probably other youtubers were racing to do it first But there was a problem...…
Police was searching for me for an entire week and they couldn't find me because... I was editing all the time xD 3 months ago I was coming back home with groceries and accidentally blocked a driveway with my car I had lots of client work so I didn't leave house for the entire…
I got scammed... It was a HUGE project So huge I'm not even able to tell how many weeks I worked my ass off on this... There were so many people working beside me that it wouldn't even cross my mind that it was all lies... We were promised a really good, stable compensation…
Never thought I'd be able to make such video in 1 day . . . . And I was right . . . . It took me 2

99% of videoeditors trying to land clients be like:

5 things that make me proud of who I am today: 1. I have never in my entire life drunk alcohol, smoked or taken drugs (I'm 24) 2. I never missed a deadline on a client's project 3. I live modestly even when close to $6k/month (I've been walking in the same shoes that have…
My car broke down yesterday... My girlfriend lost her job a week ago (we were splitting rent)... Recently I was about to onboard 2 new clients but it didn't work out in the end... The everpresent "what do we do now..." hanging in the air... My girlfriend kept looking at me…
I ruined my life. I quit university after 3 years - whole family dissapointed, mom and grandma were crying Instead of learning useful things (history, biology etc), I kept being distracted by dumb marketing and sales... Shortly I developed an addiction, leading to me sitting…
I cried today. Woke up and checked x. Saw 3 posts in a row of videoeditors saying how important is the hook in the videos There wasn't a hook in any of the posts :|
This shortcut literally SPEEDS UP every. single. thing. I do on the timeline... And I have never seen anyone else ever use it... Whatever you do you constantly have to move your playhead You keep moving it to the ruler above and drag it there again and again while you can just…
10 videoediting lessons I learnt the hard way: 1. Stop relying on presets and templates They may speed you up... But they keep you stuck at your current level 2. Spending more time on an animation doesn't mean it's gonna be much better. Almost always there's another way…
The REAL way to get better as an editor is... actually analyze the data Yes, I know, we all want to learn new cool effects... And looking at numbers and graphs isn't that exciting... And often you don't even have access to it... I get it But that's the only way you get…

My "friends" made a group chat to bully my youtube channel. Few years ago when I was still at the university, I got curious about making videos and made my first ever youtube video. I wanted to make a channel about social skills, the videos were just simple talking heads…
Here's how to get the most out of the collaboration with your editor: Treat him like a team member, not just video dispenser. Share ideas, results, doubts... This way not only the editor feels appreciated (which makes him actually perform better for you) but also gives him…

Finally it has come time for me to slowly start hiring videoeditors myself. (I got some big projects planned) Now that for the first time I stand at the other side of the hiring process, here is my biggest struggle when looking for editors - use it to make it easier for people…
I lost a 6 figure business client 💀 Back when I was starting as a videoeditor I was trying to get hired by an owner of a significant content agency, because he made a job posting offering $1.5/s of the video. I applied, made a free sample, but he said it wasn't good enough.…
I'm wondering how far can you get with the ridiculousness of a job posting and still have people begging you for work in the comments. This is an equivalent of someone walking up to you on the street, punching you, spitting on you, kicking you down to the ground, telling you…

I refused to work with a 11M+ subs youtuber. A while ago my friend who is a very experienced editor (he works with multiple 30M+ subs creators) asked me for help with editing his client's videos. At first I was just cutting, assembling the timeline and adding music, and he was…
