Val | Video Editor

@Kamil_AFrames I get really confused on how to go about it

@ValzVisuals The only way around to get clients is having strong personal brand. I don't have it yet and outreach works really well for me so far. Why don't you like outreach?

Recently I was looking for a client. I've sent literally 5 personalised emails Soon I will be editing a trial long-form video for $350+ What do you prefer? Cold or warm email campaign?

@byjoni_ I am not use to it. It just seem off

@ValzVisuals complicating?

Freelancers. What keeps you from buying a MacBook?

@maxiediting At least you go to the gym. I had to start working out at home

@ValzVisuals hahah you are not the only one… I only go out to the gym and walk

Day 58 documenting my journey as a video editor Stats for the day: -steps: 10069 -money made: $125 -X followers: 594 -Posts made: 1 -Gym: ✅ I started a project for a big client that I'm going to be working on long-term so pretty excited for that What about you guys?

@Abiodun_media Way too serious

@ValzVisuals Life is more serious now 😂😂

Me in 2015 instead of learning Video editing 😅😂

@beastlitt Yes it is

@ValzVisuals yes, thats the key

I discovered that a good editor doesn’t just make videos look nice. They make people watch longer, which helps the creators they are working with. Retention > aesthetics.

@gabriel_maiso @GadzhiIman You did an amazing job.. it was so engaging to watch

@richsongocrazy This is the realest thing I have seen today

As a freelancer, you have to learn how to save, no jokes. One month you’re making $2–3k+, the next month might not even touch $500. Build a reserve that can cover you for 3–6 months.
So when it’s time to negotiate, you’re not doing it on an empty stomach.

How many of you set goals at the start of the year and have actually hit your Q1 goals? I just realized I’ve accomplished most of mine. March is almost over… how’s it going for you?

@stijnnoorman Most people suffer the 80% a lot and it’s the most important

20% of writing is having an idea. 80% of writing is clearly communicating the idea.

@MimiTheDesigner Ouch…. This will pain them ehnn

Many people on LinkedIn are more concerned about announcing that they just got a job than doing the actual job.

@JIHAN_S1 Lagging… especially after I just did a nice motion graphics 😭😭😭 it’s very frustrating

What’s the most boring part of video editing? Me: Rendering 💀

@stijnnoorman Failure is the scariest thing for every human .. the brain and heart can’t handle it, but to push pass your limit, you just have to go from it eventually

Start failing more. • Failed posts • Failed offers • Failed videos • Failed courses • Failed giveaways Failure leads to success.

@Abdoeditore 3 recurring clients… I need more so I can drop my low paying ones

Editors !! How many clients do you have so far ?

@BakiVisuals Factssss…. College gives knowledge that has been running for years that doesn’t match up with current economy and experience. A mentor is worth the time and effort

I think a mentor is more worthwhile than college.

@david_fisara I love both but I prefer short form, I make the most money from it

Honest question for editors. Do you prefer editing long-form or short-form content? And why?
