Aw thanks! Glad the quality of videos seem high, takes a lot of work. Appreciate the comment, have a great day!

2 bay by far. Raid 0 requires 2 drives to split the work load as I mentioned. So get 2 bay 👍🏻

I’ve edited 4K and 6k pro res raw off it with good results

Cheers, I appreciate that!

Thank you for taking the time to comment! I think this comment will be helpful to a lot of editors because I'm in the same boat. (regarding your mouse: make sure to get a mouse with a couple keyboard shortcuts and customize them smartly btw it helps a ton) Yeah sub contracting is the optimal way to build your own clients. I think a lot of editors are taking a lot of time trying to get clients that are "cool & creative" but can't pay enough. Get paid, then be creative, I say, beats working a day job. Too many editors are editing for TH-camrs for $100 unfortunately. Best of luck on your editing career. Subcontracting is a great tip to off-load lead gen, if you have another banger tip for editors let everyone know in a comment reply. Lot of editors are learning good business tips from the comments. Have a great day, Cheers!

You're overcomplicating it. Good idea to think of all your options but this hard drive is what you want for Raid 0. You buy extra hard drives and replace them if needed. Best of luck.

@@StephenTheVideoEditor hey Stephen! Thanks for sharing. I hope you subscribed and stick around. A lot of content coming up for fellow video editors and I’m sure other editors can learn from your input as well. Things like communication skills, pay structure, and agencies are all future topics so I hope to hear your input as an editor. Agency is a big step and a step that is glorified and commonly lied about. My opinion is turn into and agency once your team is 3+ people. You, contact video editor, assistant or full time employee. You’re business should be attracting clients, convert well on cold outreach to clients, then try experimenting with Facebook or Google ads when looking to scale to agency. But only when your offer is proven and makes money through outreach. TH-cam clients don’t pay much most of time unless large businesses behind them. Editors should spend most of their time when not working applying to more jobs or reaching out to clients. This is what gets them paid, not new effects. Hopefully some of this is helpful. I just wanted to share because I appreciated you commenting honestly. Best of luck!

@@VideoLoadout appreciated, you provide more honesty and value in a single comment than most people do in their entire videos, I subbed, looking forward to new stuff. Thanks for everything

3 options linked in description. Let me know if that helps: logitech G502, G602. G604

appreciate your reply! its not available in any link, im in India, can you tell me alternative mouse?

@@lordofearthishere directly through the Logitech website?

You're welcome! Thanks for the comment!

Any software. You’re good 👍🏻

Freelance for marketing related videos for small businesses and work also freelance with production companies. Let me know if there's any topic you'd like covered in the future

​@@VideoLoadoutcan you show us your reels/portfolio...i wanna know what kind of editing i should aim for

Thank you and yes, you will make it! Get client in Kenya and internationally. If your work looks good and is proven to make people money or get views, then you can get clients anywhere. International clients will pay more and you can grow fast financially. Learn cool effects if you want, but first, make sure to learn how to edit a video quickly and with the correct video and audio settings to make it high quality. Write down and save your settings. Ask your clients for reviews and results of your work. Best of luck!

hey im an editor from Kenya too!

@@dabaddest5536 wow hey pal😎 How is editing on your part coz on my side it's tough tbh

Sounds good! Go find some leads and convert!

A hard truth for some! Thanks for taking the time to comment, best of luck!

I appreciate that! I’m enjoying the process of building up a community I can help. Let me know if there’s any video topics you want covered. Thanks again for taking the time to comment, have a good one!

Definitely not the views I hoped for but the comments line this are worth it. Thanks for commenting, have a good one !

@@roshanpaliwal6269 Tom Noske short form content I’m guessing? Good idea I’m on it

I’m glad you found the video helpful 🍻 I still struggle with burnout, I feel you on that! Lot of things can help get to $8-10k range, I’ll have to expand on this video eventually. You can reach me at contactvideoloadout@gmail.com

love your videos KyrieQHD

I support saving money. Do you mind letting other editors know what type of editing do you do? Edit your own videos as a videographer, film, freelance video editor, etc. That'd be helpful for other editors to help choose as well. Thanks for the insight have a good one!

@@VideoLoadout hi I went over to the free version of DaVinci resolve and then paid for the studio version some months later, I do corporate events, weddings and anything I can do, I use lightwave for 3d animation, I really haven’t missed Adobe at all .

That's helpful input, keep up the good work! 3d animation as well, I never could go past 2d compositing. Good stuff

1000th sub that’s so cool of you! Glad I could help. Cheers x 1000 🍻

share how to build up a story with video editing skill

Great idea! building a story with editing helps make great content and build a community. I’ll keep that in mind for a future video 👍🏻

Best of luck, I'd love to be in contact with like-minded editors like you.

Glad to hear that! Putting a lot of work to make these videos helpful for everyone. Thanks for the comment!

I don't see it, but hopefully I'm closer to being batman lol

Looks like they export the text as an alpha channel. The glow separates it from the number in the background. The fade in and vignetting on the 4 makes it look good. There’s no interaction of the glow on the 4 so you should be able to do it in 2D not 3D. What are you having trouble with specifically?

@@VideoLoadout the trouble is, to make the Number "4" effect Behind the Stranger Things text. Actually I don't understand that how to create the "4" Behind the text glowing and pulsing effect.

Export your text as quicktime 444 alpha channel. RGB + alphas setting on after effects and add whatever below it or just use the layer system. I don't understand because just have your text layer in front of 4. You using after effects?

@@VideoLoadout yes I use the After Effects, & thank you for your help ❤

@@Spyder-n9z Hopefully I helped a little. Good luck!

Blessed the St Benedictine crucifix in the Catholic Church. That’s more important than any video , happy to see this comment. I agree with you. God bless!

Yes, I’ll make time to put that in a future video. Are you a video editor or videographer?

CHEERS! Wow that's so nice that literally made my day! That's super nice I hope you have a great day and enjoy future content from this channel! That's a classy move bro

@@VideoLoadout I sure will do thanks.

Edit and move clips thousands times a week, why not make it faster and better?

Why didnt u pin ur own message

Totally forgot, uploaded the video and started working. Clutch comment though! I appreciate it! Have a good one!

@@GabrielsUniverse glad you found the video helpful! Thanks for commenting 🍻

Happy to help. Yes, USA & UK have highest client budgets so that’s smart. If you communicate clearly, shouldn’t matter where you’re from. Good communication and quality = good client experience. If you want work not clients then you should reach out to marketing agencies, production companies, and freelancers with similar clients. Basically your portfolio should tell them you make quality of content and it won’t take long to train you to help them with their clients. If you want clients not just working for someone- you fix marketing problems not make videos - even though you do. Help a booming industry that uses ads like fashion, fitness, e commerce. Find a client dm or upwork. Don’t worry about getting paid too much now. But when your client has a success- you sell other clients on finding success as well or even better - similar success. Simiply- make ads for a fitness brand and offer to do the same for 50 others. Film a social media video to pin 📍 on ig for a clothing brand and offer the same to 50 others. For more money. Make a good website and make sure your business looks professional at first glance. That’s called inherent value (website with quality BTS and notable brands on website). Most important thing is to edit for others who have clients and make money or work on getting your own clients. Creativity should be improved but business is more important unfortunately 👍🏻 you got this !

@@VideoLoadout Omg! Am sorry I was busy a bit just dropped a like ASAP I could, Thank you so much for the reply am so lost Rn I can't express, as there was incident which made me come home and start editing again. I couldn't process it but this niche Idea is what's burning in my head and I'll do this! Can I ask one more question? Shall I reach out personally or cold mail/ cold call?

You can ask your question through a comment or email in my TH-cam bio. Happy to help. A lot of people are going through something similar so feel free to comment 🍻

@@VideoLoadout Thank you so much brother 🍻

@@Akkie2k 🍻

Yes, I wanted talk more about leads but the video was too long. Client leads: If you’re not full time spend time everyday applying to full time jobs. Freelance. Instagram DMs. I’ve sent hundreds. Email - find emails on linked in and company website. Then reach out to other businesses in that field and share previous success. Facebook groups landed me my biggest client. Lot of cold outreach. People also found me on ig because the hashtags I used. If you’re early in career get client experience and marketing results by working on upwork. Reach out to marketing agencies and production companies offering editing services. This should be a good start

@@VideoLoadout thank you so much, will try these out.

Thank for the comment, happy to help. Don’t understand your question completely but I’ll share what advice I can. This raid 0 configured my book duo hard drive would be a good fit for weddings because of the size of the projects. You can edit on the drive while importing footage. Keep the my book duo plugged in as much as possible. Don’t mess with it. It is fast enough to edit off completely. Mirror your folders of footage and graphics on a backup drive that’s cheap. Backups are important for client work. What program do you edit with? Let me know if I didn’t answer your questions you can ask again. Tried my best to help.

In raid 0 both hard drives are being used and act as 1 hard drive in order to work faster.

🍻

Got you 🍻

You're welcome!

Thanks for watching!

Use a Raid 0 hard drive like the my book duo for editing projects like that which are over 2tb. It’s fast enough for 4K editing without proxies. If I have a small project like a graphics heavy ig commercial reel I can edit it on my pc’s internal SSD then offload the footage to clear up space when done. But for 95% of projects I’m just editing off of my book duo

Tnx for the video! What are the bechmarks for read and write speed with this setup on 4k timeline?

Thank you so much! And if you have any video topics you might want covered- let me know! That’d be helpful.

Of course, what animations specifically? After effects and premiere for programs. Retention animations at videoloadout.com for animation and graphics. After effects for text animations.

@@VideoLoadout Thank you so very much. I’m definitely going to look into that.

Glad I could help :)
