When I tell you video editing has changed my life I'm not kidding. If you take it seriously it can change your life too 🔸How it started VS How it's going🔸

Podcast intro I made for Pixel Fabula Made in After Effects and Premiere Pro

Usually don’t post timelines, but this one looked cool even if a bit messy haha

Fastest way to improve video editing? Take on projects that are slightly outside your current skill level You’ll be forced to find ways to get it done and push yourself beyond what you thought you were capable of

Vertical version 🔥 I usually have to change certain pictures and compositions around to fit better

Video editing skills open doors Communication skills get you inside those doors

3 years ago This is the Hamza Ahmed video that changed my life It wasn't a motivational video It wasn't an instructional video It was a video editing job hiring post lol I applied to this asap and the rest is history

A positive mindset sets you apart as a video editor Example: A client asks "can you do this editing style?" and you've never done it before ❌Don't say: I don't know how ✅Say: I haven't done it yet, but I will figure it out Then do your best to figure that shit out

A lot of editors know how to make decent animations But often miss the mark on the "why" behind them Are you animating to: 🔸 Clarify the message? 🔸 Spark emotions? 🔸 Connect the creator with the viewer? Or just to show off? Animations should serve the story, not your ego

Video editors who want to connect with your clients better… There’s no hack or quick trick Just genuinely give a shit about them and what they’re building And just be yourself dude Sounds simple and cliche, but it works

🔸Over 1TB of footage 🔸9+ hours across multiple cameras 🔸This vlog became a 1/10 on Youtube Editing this was a huge challenge for me a year ago Not only had I never worked on a project this big, but I wasn't very experienced with vlogs Premiere was suffering, lagging nonstop

Video editors who say "I'm just not creative like that" There's your problem right there You've convinced yourself that you can't come up with creative ideas, so you don't

I don’t know which video editor needs to hear this but eat your blueberries 🫐 🔸 Better blood flow to the brain (focus boost) 🔸 Antioxidants that fight stress + fatigue 🔸 Supports memory, mood & creativity

Playing around with effects and some new AI tools 🔸Seedream 4.0 🔸Kling 2.1 🔸And a pinch of After Effects (Smoke is moving weird 'cause the clip is reversed)
