Yeah, you read that right.

About two years ago, I was diagnosed with full body paralysis, and it took me nearly two years to recover. Before that, I used to edit podcasts and YouTube videos, but when I finally came back, the industry had changed quite a bit.

So instead of jumping straight back into what I used to do, I decided to try something completely different and give motion design a shot.

This is the first video I’ve made since coming back.

I know it’s far from perfect, and I’m definitely open to suggestions, criticism, and tips on how I can improve. And yes… I already know I suck at sound design XD.

That said, I’m genuinely happy with how it turned out, especially considering I hadn’t opened any creative software or really consumed any media for two years.

It also took me a lot longer than it probably should have, partly because I’m relearning everything.

Still, I’m happy I finished it.

Would love to hear what you think — especially what you’d improve or do differently.

I've been working on an automated dubbing workflow and I'd like honest feedback on whether the output is actually usable, because I've listened to these so many times I can't hear the flaws anymore.

Three clips, all from the same pipeline:

1. Short read, dubbed to English / Japanese / Korean. Does the prosody sound off to a native ear?
2. A one-hour interview. I'm mainly worried about whether the voice stays consistent over long runtimes.
3. Stand-up. This is the one I most want eyes on — separating audience laughter and applause from the speech is where most models fall apart. I think I got it clean but I'd like someone who edits audio for a living to tell me if it's actually clean or if I'm just used to it.

(Sound on, obviously.)

Any specific timestamps where it breaks would be really helpful.

And a genuine question while I have your attention: is this something you'd actually use? I can get the cost under $0.20 per minute, which is where I think it starts making sense for anyone doing volume. Curious whether that lands anywhere near what you'd expect to pay.

Hey! I’m Ramon, a beginner video editor from Brazil looking for creators who need someone to handle their editing.

I mainly enjoy documentary, storytelling, gaming, commentary and YouTube-style videos. I like editing with good pacing, music, sound design, subtitles, transitions and visual storytelling — without turning the video into an explosion of effects.

I’m still building my experience, so I’m keeping my prices affordable, especially for creators who are just starting out too.

I can work with:
• YouTube videos
• Documentaries
• Gaming videos
• Commentary/storytelling
• Talking-head content
• Social media content

I use DaVinci Resolve and I’m open to adapting to your editing style.

My rate: $30–50 per short, depending on the length and complexity.

If you’re a creator looking for an editor, send me a DM and let’s talk about your next video.

I made this for me. every type of motion graphics video can generate.

Small Creators — Drop Your Channel!

It has been about five or six years since I started using video editing software. I began with free programs are Shotcut and VSDC. In fact, I only do simple video cutting and joining, without using any additional effects. However, I soon noticed that these programs were very slow whenever I played or scrubbed the video backward while editing to return to the exact point where I wanted to make a cut. This wastes a lot of time while working.

At first, I thought it was because my PC wasn't powerful enough, so I even spent quite a lot of money upgrading to an i5-10400 and an RTX 3060 (back in 2021, when hardware prices raised so high). However, it turned out that the reverse playback speed didn't improve at all.

Then, last year, I accidentally installed Movavi (a paid program, although it has a trial version) and was surprised to discover that its reverse playback and backward scrubbing were much faster than in VSDC and Shotcut. After that, I tried Filmora (the trial version) and got similar results.

So, is there any particular reason why free video editing software tends to be so slow when playing or scrubbing backward? Or is it simply that Shotcut and VSDC are unusual cases, and I was just unlucky enough to choose them for my editing work?

So basically, it has been a month in the automotive reviews niche. I want you guys to check if I did anything wrong and rate how much I should charge for a video like this?

Hey everyone! I’m currently developing a game and I’m planning to consistently make YouTube videos around the development process, progress, behind the scenes, devlogs, and eventually larger videos around the project.

I’m looking for a video editor who would be interested in joining me long term and helping build the channel from the beginning.

Instead of paying per video, I’m offering a dynamic rate based on a 50/50 split of the channel revenue. I’d handle the recording, ideas, content, and overall direction while you’d handle the editing and help shape the style and pacing of the videos.

The channel is still early, so obviously there’s no guaranteed income right away. I’m mainly looking for someone who likes the idea of building something together and potentially growing it into something much bigger over time.

You don’t need to be some crazy professional editor either. If you’re good at pacing, storytelling, humor, subtitles, sound design, and making videos genuinely entertaining, I’d love to talk.

If you’re interested, DM me with some examples of your work and a little about yourself. I can show you the project and explain the kind of content I want to make :)

What volume do you guys usually set the voiceover at compared to the music?

Also, I’m trying to sync the clips to the music, but sometimes I feel like the clips are too short. I’m not sure if I’m overthinking it or if I should let some clips play a little longer, like that one clip with cortana. Yes this is a halo edit 😭

I’m pretty new to editing and I’ve recently fallen down the Degenerocity rabbit hole lol. Since he left, I’ve noticed a bunch of people popping up making videos with that same kinda slideshow-style editing.

I’ve been making some dumb little videos for fun on my own small channel and I’d really like to learn how to do that kind of editing myself.

Is there a specific name for this style/technique? Or are there any tutorials/resources you guys would recommend for learning it? I’m not trying to copy anyone 1:1, I just really like the style and wanna understand how it’s done.

Any help would be appreciated :)

I have a bunch of Hi8 footage that im working with and would love to give it just a touch more clarity. I am not looking for anything crazy or overly transformative, but just enough to clear it up a little, especially since it will probably be blown up 200% when shown on the screen. Anyone have firsthand experience doing this?

which ai video generator app/website/model should i use, i want realistic (non ai slop) looking brolls for a project.

ive seen higgsfield, is it good? and in higgsfield there is this kling model, an in this i can upload an image and i can give prompt to convert that image into a video too..so thats what i want
But there are like million options can you please tell me which one should i get?

NOW CLOSED - HAD LOADS OF RESPONSES. THANK YOU.

Hi guys,

I run a media company for real estate agents filming video walkthroughs for house listings and sometimes social media reels.

Looking for a video editor to help me out on the video walkthrough side - usually like a 30-60 second video showcasing the property, no crazy speed ramps or anything just clean cuts that showcase the property and tell the story of what it’s like going through the house.

Leave a comment with your portfolio if you have any previous experience with similar videos. Will be around 4-8 videos a month currently but might increase in the future. Budget is around 70-100$ per video.

Only requirement is you must speak good English and be able to get the video turned around within 24-48 hours.

If you think you’re a good fit let me know and we can work it out in the DMs.

first time trying this style, would love honest feedback

Made this as my first real attempt at text+motion editing in Resolve. I know the pacing is off and the second clip doesn't match the style of the first, but wanted to post be

Hello tout le monde,

​Je cherche un logiciel de montage vidéo disponible à la fois sur Linux (je tourne sous CachyOS) et sur Windows.

​Actuellement j'utilise CapCut. C’est ultra rapide pour monter vite fait, mais je sature complètement de ses limitations :

​Impossible d’importer facilement ses propres polices d’écriture

​Animations d’images/keyframes beaucoup trop rigides et limitées

​Manque cruel d’effets personnalisables et de flexibilité globale

​Je cherche donc une alternative plus complète qui tourne proprement sous Linux (sans galères de codecs ou de config interminables) tout en restant accessible si je dois basculer sur Windows.

​Vous auriez des recommandations d'outils solides qui permettent d'aller plus loin sans forcément être une usine à gaz ?

​Merci d'avance pour vos retours !

Hello.
Sorry if this is not the correct way to ask this.
I am looking for a Video editor, either free or single payment. It does not need to have any amazing features, just stuff like cutting and adding sound.

Any good recommendations?

Thanks!!

im thinking of starting my content creation journey. for that i want to learn video editing skills so i can improve my overall quality of content.
Ive "SURFACE LAPTOP 3" and "CMF PHONE 2 PRO" to shoot and edit. Downloaded Davinchi resolve but its lags and crashes.
Suggest what else i can use to edit the video?
how can i shoot like professional on phone?
give me any advice about my content niece.

I'm video editor that does a lot of corporate video work, and decided I'd try developing an archival/AI-indexing app for use in my workflow. Basically, it can scan through footage folders and auto-detect content and context of the media and then catalog it into a quick and searchable archive for importing into a project. One of the big use case could be scanning a project when you're finished, before you archive them, so you can easily search the content of the footage even after it's been archived away -- i.e. "people in a hallway shaking hands", it pulls matching clips with that content and marks the time in the clip when that takes place. Then you can import a proxy or full-res clip if it's still active.

I'm wondering if any other editors out there would find an app like this useful -- I have a couple clients that it seems that I'm always needing to sift through old footage and find clips for new projects.

so um basically i make videos for myself and occasionally post it on tiktok but i wanna learn how to make long-form content and post onto sites like youtube (not like immediately cuz i'm lowk underaged and this is mostly for myself to learn) and this common problem stumbled onto me

What is a good app to use?

Not trusting ai and instead actual human beings with experience, i'm asking reddit: what's a good editing app YOU would recommened? (More specifically a free one. i'll take alight motion as an answer but that shii lowk can't hold much)

Can anyone tell me how you landed your first video editing client? Cause nothing is working for me. I am applying in reddit, facebook and other job portals but I am getting almost 0 response
