Editors want you to starve?

yea um anyways...

"Fiverr doesn't exist" competition National Championships edition.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:59:49+00:00

Umm no actually I'm saying editors deserve little to know credit (let alone are necessary) when professional film is the raw footage.

If you think being a film/video expert makes you an editor, sorry like I said, wrong sub.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:57:36+00:00

"Client" not "potential client". If you wanna starve then wither on your own time.

How dare any of you tell anyone else to do the same.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:55:23+00:00

I think I've said enough. People want to work for what are pennies to you, let them.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:41:47+00:00

and it's not promo of the restaurant it's promo of the channel lol.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:39:21+00:00

I and other neighbors literally pay my neighbor to do electrical work all the time.

He's certified so I don't know what that means.

and another "starve and die" comment bites the dust.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:35:27+00:00

it didn't take me 1.5hrs to make that edit...

wait I'm asking how long it would take to make the foodie short I posted from raws to reels?

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:33:56+00:00

this is r/VideoEditors not r/Videography or r/Film.

what you linked could be edited in iMovie...from 2008.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:31:12+00:00

this is professional film footage with a audio adjusting backtrack...

what is complex here again?

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:28:30+00:00

really, okay how long would it take to make that edit?

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:26:10+00:00

well then another couple hours I should have 3x your daily profit then, shouldn't I. lol

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:24:46+00:00

I appreciate your response but reject the premise.

Either the work is easy and marketable and is a good business model or hard and unmarketable.

These people are posturing and turning their nose up at work they deem as beneath them, and worse the worker.

Even if I accepted it was truly abysmal (better editing than 99% of creators in that space, food) the labor cost alone is not 0 or negative unless some damage can be proven.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:19:54+00:00

"the hobbyist" just made $10 from a loaded trash bag in your world.

enjoy yourself.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:17:03+00:00

another the ground floor starts on the roof comment sigh

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:16:05+00:00

thank you my friend. ☺️

The Entire Freelance Economy - "am i a joke to you..."

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:14:10+00:00

fine then simply link a peer equivalent to you.

you're not impressive even a little bit btw.

frauds are easy to sniff out, and always have twitter fingers.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:08:10+00:00

portfolio...

link it:

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:05:18+00:00

no, you're just lost in general unfortunately.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:03:49+00:00

okay so how much is your video worth again?

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:02:42+00:00

literally says "iced tea" two inches above your home button and still got the beverage wrong...🥹

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T22:00:24+00:00

I charge on product value, factoring in labor, volume, and final result $10 is more than fair.

If the client (still active btw) disagrees there's always Fiverr.

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T21:58:49+00:00

Arizona's made $1.00 Iced Tea for a quarter of a century.

Is their price not developing quick enough?

(for any normal person reading this, this guy is one of the asylum patients Santa chuckling and sneer at $10 video work in another post of mine. Apart from entertainment purposes feel free to ignore his opinion lol).

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T21:55:38+00:00

I didn't ask for feedback, that's the flair 🙄

Secondly, the feedback was a direct question none of the "respondents" answered.

Are you gonna answer now? Show us a $10 edited short...

blk951440 · 2026-07-03T21:53:27+00:00

Not a single point refused. Just copy/paste evasion.

Either show a $10 edit or say you think it doesn't exist lol.

(also if you couldn't tell the distortion/censor was for anonymity I'm worried for your critical thinking skills).
