How I Made Money As A Video Editor With A Sh*tty Laptop 

@@sumitix2267 pinned🔥🔥

Thank you, I will for sure! What sort of experience do you think would relate?

Of course! Happy to share :D Where are you at in video editing?

@@adam.mokhtarI really don’t know because I do editing on gaming but can you tell me after seeing some of my video ?

That's great dude, keep pushing and save some money to buy a new good computer 😉. good luck

Bro I'm a video editor like you send your Instagram I'd

Great question :) confidence for me came from repetition I believe. Doing it enough until I’m comfortable to edit videos without it taking hours for a single video. Doing jobs on fiverr also taught me a lot - hence why I charged cheap because it was the cost to learn different styles / trends of video whilst somewhat getting paid. I stuck in it for 1 year and the boost in confidence was seeing 5 star reviews and Fiverr recommending my service!

This laptop isn't that shitty, I used to same laptop to build a graphic design business

@@kaancakrtas4401 great question! I think the way I’d approach is by looking at the per hour pay? Eg. If it takes 3 hours to edit a $300 vid, it’s basically $100/hr. Set a rate you’d be happy with, ie. I’m currently around $50-70/hour but trying to work my way up to $100+/hour either by working more efficiently or raising my prices. Also if that’s the hourly rate you’re happy with, and should you scale, you can hire someone for less than that and still profit. Just my 2 cents!

Thanks for commenting bro! Hmm export is either using your CPU (your intel core i3) or graphics card. See your export setting if it’s using your GPU as more often it’s stronger to handle. If you research on google requirements for 4K export there might be a minimum graphics card need, maybe check your own and if it’s compatible

@@adam.mokhtar Thanks for your reply bro!! Yeah I'll definitely try using the gpu but my laptop graphics also isn't good either it literally has basic integrated graphics. But I'll still try. Also are you talking about davinci resolve or premire pro because I use davinci resolve

@@tanaysaundattikar yess premiere pro. But you can search "davinci resolve export using gpu" on google and you'll probably find a few ideas!

Ok

Thank you for watching the whole vid! Appreciate it😊 should be a couple ways to try be resourceful here! If you keep taking the animations/elements path, you could try use a better PC from your local library / net cafe? Another way might be less convenient but maybe export every time a certain element is done and then edit on top? eg. Cut/trim/color/music > export > add graphics > export > add animations > export > add captions.. just so you don’t overwhelm the editing app with so much elements in one go which is what makes it struggle. Also try using your phone, I know some people add animations using CapCut on the iPhone as well! If not for animations - maybe you could try a different offer. Eg. Only offer podcast editing? Not usually a lot of animations here just captions and maybe B-rolls which was 90% of my work on fiverr :) Let me know what you think!

Ok man i think i can try it and i think there will be more competition in podcast editing and how do you stand out in that?

@@AbdulRehman-wx2hx I'd probably try niche down? For example you can promote podcast editing work in real estate only? Or vice-versa. Multiple ways to try maybe even do outreach to real estate companies and make sure your videos are excellent quality there

Sure, why not. You can join my discord link via my ig, I’m quite active there :) IG - socialgeminis
