How I would learn video editing (If I could start over)

I'm 35 years old this year... And I really want to do something I enjoy as a job. Is it too late for me to go at video editing full time?

Happy 2024 👍👍👍👍 Great video

I just started my editing journey, feel free to support by sending a subscribe and a like! :)

Guy pls I need help on how best to learn video editing am really passionate about this, I have tried several months trying to learn on my own but it’s really very difficult pls what should I do?

Hey Sam, great video! I'm 18 and looking to make a career out of video editing. I'm a complete beginner right now. Would you recommend it?

Thank you 😊

For me I’ve been using Final Cut Pro, and I wanted to see what you guys think of the strategy I’m using, It applies in both the way I film and edit but after completing a video I do a hard digest of what was done on it and see how it can be improved and changed for the next one, from lighting all the way to how the beginning of the video is edited to capture people into the content

I think I am passionate about research and want to help video essay channels and edit sections there.

Is this a good fit for me? I'm very interested in learning video editing -- retired and financially ok, so money isn't a primary motivation. I feel like this would be a fun hobby, plus, I have my own clips, that I'd like to upload and start my own channel, just so I can express my own creativity. Don't care about subs. It's more important to me, that I do my own thing and those who choose to follow along (or not) is secondary. Sure, I could easily find a use for an extra fifty or hundred grand annually -- but I prefer to move along at my own pace, rather than be forced to meet someone else's dead line. Essentially, I'd be starting from pretty much basic. ...where do I go from here? 🙂

Thanks Sam bro :)

You can't beat a guy (or a girl) that just doesn't quit, has a positive attitude to taking on challenges and getting better. Spot.on. 💯

This has got to be one of the most impactful videos I've ever watched, because it is speaking to me and my situation right now.

I've been trained as a salesperson, I understand marketing concepts at a very macro level, I love photography, and I want to learn video editing.
Now to combine all these skills into a coherent business that is something I enjoy doing, and can earn a living doing it.

Thank you for this video.
You got a subscriber from me.

Thank you

Sound advice 🎉thank you 😅

any advice on how to reach out to possible clients?

Woke up at 4 in the morning, looked up one thing on the tablet and this video was over to the side. Clicked on it, and realized it was gold within minutes! I’m only fair vids and know I need this guys advice and if you are reading this, you do too. Don’t dismiss this if you want a life changing career and have the drive to give it a go. DO IT!

I was just looking over your editors academy and want to recommend you highlight it is currently a 1 time purchase for lifetime access. I know you put that in FAQ, however, that is a very important aspect of people like me to look at your stuff. I had to search for it, which can deter some people. As it is good for answering the FAQ quickly and great for marketing, I highly suggest you put that in your description early on. I will be back soon to sign up for the course =)

Sam my bro you're amazing

Ty

Hi I'm thinking of joining the course however I don't have adobe premier pro I only have the free version of davinci resolve I'm guessing I will be needing adobe for it

But what if we want to use DaVinci...will the training be in premiere?

Bro has 150k views not 250M

Sam is the academy for beginners too?

Hi Sam!
Just found your channel, and i really enjoy your content and you as a person.
My ambition is to become a freelancing video editor by 2025, or sooner.
You are exactly what i need to success.
See you in the community. 🙌

Thanks for the Shoutout its me Dhruv

Yoo! Sick video Sam 🔥🔥

Gonna make a big jump by the end of 2023 mark my words and stay tuned with me ....🔥🙌

just a queation i started editing a few weeks ago on capcut pc and im "decent" on it. i like the softwere and all but im still questioining if i should switch to either adobe or davinci. so to anyone who used them should i switch? and why?

Hello Bro. Really loved your videos. I learned a lot from, so many valuable content. I am planning to buy the Editors Academy, do you currently have a coupon code for the course? maybe I could get a little discount

You are growing bro 💪

WOW, applied to the free editor community. Great video ❤

Great video! This makes me think about how slow I was (and still am) to learn stuff while editing lol. One tip for ANYONE on ANY SOFTWARE is to not use any of the crazy or flashy transitions too much unless the purpose of your video is to show off the editing. This is a huge mistake that I made when I started editing in 2020 and looking at my old videos, I wish I could fix that mistake now.

🔥🔥🔥

underrated and valuable person making underrated and valuable content

Awesome video mate!

Great value Bro
