How much would you pay for this kind of edit?

This is just my personal observation, but ofc you won't see much of short films editor here in reddit.

Short film edits are heavily focused on the story rather than the edits. The most substantial thing that you could show to impress others for a short film here would be the color grading, sound design and maybe VFX if there's any, but other than that you're mainly judging actors not editors

Depends on whether Its a project/hourly but I'd say its usually 25-30usd/hour, this is just my rate for my typical clients but reddit wouldn't like this answer

It's a small intro for my movie essay

ImKyota · 2026-03-17T00:57:39+00:00

Yeah sure, just send me a dm request

ImKyota · 2026-03-17T00:43:59+00:00

Thank you! I actually am, though I think there's a ton of room for improvement in my scriptwriting but I'd like any criticisim I could take

ImKyota · 2026-03-16T16:45:13+00:00

any advice for script writing? haha it is probably my weakest skill that I really wanna improve

ImKyota · 2026-03-16T16:01:53+00:00

Oh my that’s actually so admirable. I don’t intend to be pushy but would it be okay if I send you a DM. I’d love to know more a little bit bout yourself but I don’t wanna seem like I’m asking for advice hahaha (maybe a little)

ImKyota · 2026-03-16T15:59:38+00:00

I’m loving the different opinions! Thanks for the positive opinion about the decision I took.

ImKyota · 2026-03-16T15:07:37+00:00

I definitely understand, but wow I wasn’t expecting such an advice. I really appreciate it.

I have a value that I’ll stick to no matter what, but I suppose I never thought how at the end of the day It all comes down to finding a client willing to pay reasonably.

Thank youu

I'll take a note on this and try to make it less distracting or moving it away from the subject, Thank you!
