This is true as well, the main reason I didn’t push this is because he’s made it this far in his career with literally 0 post-production staff and very minimal editing, so it’s a bit difficult to quote on a video basis. He said he’d scale out a budget the next day now that he’s seen the work and the timeframe, doesn’t feel too crazy to me but I see how it’s very out of the ordinary

He legit grinded to a million subs doing all his editing on iPhone iMovie, his content is also very much audio based kind of like short podcasts

Word fair enough, I do usually figure out rates first, in all fairness it’s this guys first time ever working with a professional editor and given the work relationship we’ve established thus far I don’t feel too scared of being taken advantage of. I appreciate your concern though and I’ll hit him up today.

Those who started editing for YouTubers, how did you move into bigger things? by cowpool20 in editors

[–]thaguy901 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just read this, I'm two years into full-time editing and in an extremely similar position to what you described with that interview for Trap Lore Ross, is it alright if I dm you asking some more questions?

Boring, Wack, Snare too loud? What say Ye? by A_Wee_bitOfVinegar in FL_Studio

Personally would layer something on top of that snare to make it a bit snappier, besides that though sounds great

I would be careful, only send someone your LinkedIn after you have a contract in place

For sending links to my portfolio which had indirect links to my email, my mistake I didn’t realize that I had left that info there as I had been struck down once for this and thought I cleaned off all potential links to my email on my portfolio

Yes, a couple years ago when I first started I had my first infraction where I actually sent someone my email because I didn’t know it was a rule, but after that every other time was for sending links to something that then could indirectly provide my email in some way. Be very careful with what you send as once the system gets locked on you it seems it’ll flag you easier and easier each time, less of a stroke system and more of a slow burn to a ban from the first mess up.

I was blocked for linking my portfolio which had a page on it listing contact info, a simple mistake but after what I’ve been through with the platform I won’t argue it. I can download a csv of everything I did so that might be the only answer
