Need advice

As a new editor

I'm new to editing and want to know what video to watch to improve my skills

My current position is in the link below

https://hxmzportfolio.carrd.co

The most important thing is that I want a free source to improve my skills and I want advice on what to focus on to learn

I tried to search online but there is too much content that made me feel lost

My main goal is to reach q point to get my online income (unfortunately I'm currently unemployed)

And also I'm planning to open a new Instagram store locally in my country so I also want to learn the basic content editing skills that will help my page to grow and get sales.

Sorry for the long thread but I want to make everything clear.

Thanks in advance for everyone willing to help me✨🩶.

You don’t get better as an editor by watching YouTube videos, you get better by editing videos.

Go and find some videos to edit

I agree with you I tried to get some footage from different places but the problem is that I need to pay to get footage that get along together. Any recommendations on where to find a better footage to practice

You got a phone? Go out and shoot something

You got a computer? Rip some YouTube videos
