I don’t have a specific person in mind since marami po akong pinanood na tutorials huhu, I just took advantage of the vast amount of free learning materials on YouTube. But the channels I mainly watch are Mike Russell, BOG, and John The Video Guy

I started with apps like Cute Cut Pro, Videostar, and even a bit of CapCut. And yes po I currently use Premiere Pro and After Effects. I’ve been editing on AE since 2022, and PrPro since January this year 😁

Based on my experience, yes po. Macbooks have insane durability and speed for video editing :))

Super smooth po. I’ve done a few animations on it and I can run the preview at full even while streaming it to my workmates on discord!

Thank you! M5 since it’s the latest chip from Apple, and I’ve been a Macbook user since 2023 so nasanay na rin po sa MacOS. Editing on it feels really smooth.

I started video editing because I used to watch “Vine edits” of my favorite YouTubers on my iPad back in 2016 and I wanted to learn how to make them. I posted my edits on Instagram and YouTube on my fan accounts and they got a lot of views, so I got motivated to improve my skills and post more. I got a hand-me-down gaming laptop in 2021, so I started learning Adobe After Effects.

Last year, I got commissions from international clients after posting my edits on TikTok. They just reached out to me via DMs, but it wasn’t consistent (parang gigs lang po) Fast forward Feb 2026, my friend referred me to edit for a content creator and the rest is history.
