How to hire a video editor for your youtube channel (+ how much an editor will cost you)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 авг 2024
- One of the first hires I ever made was a video editor to help me out with my channel. I'm SO glad I did this, because it's saved me tons of time, helped me to grow my channel a lot faster, and meant that I was still able to have a LIFE outside of RUclips.
(That's one of the "dark secrets" of being a RUclipsr... even though it's an amazing and creative job, it can take ALL your time.)
So, today, I want to share with you what I've learned over the past couple years of working with a video editor -- including how to FIND an editor, how much a video editor should COST, and how to work with them effectively... so you actually get the results you're looking for.
Do you make RUclips videos? Have you ever considered hiring an editor? Why or why not?

Nice video
You are always so thorough in your details, making sure to give us the absolute best of what you can share with us. Please know how much we appreciate that. I have also used Upwork in the past (when we still called it Elance) and I agree that is a great place to find some amazing video editors, as well as other team members to help you grow your RUclips channel or online business, like logo designers, ebook writers, etc. And like you share in your video, it's so important to build that connection with your editor, to the point that if they no longer wish to edit videos any longer, they'll have a great referral ready to take on your projects because they won't want to just leave you hanging. Thank-you for introducing your own editors with us, what an awesome team! Great video Gillian! I highly recommend subscribing to your channel. I've been a loyal fan for over two years now, you always go the extra mile. A great role model for sure!
Estoy en esto justamente. Costo beneficio...
A proposito @Gillian Perkins : *¿Cómo eligieron tu nombre tus padres?*
Good info, but too much pointless blabla at the beginning
Anyone looking for a RUclips Thumbnail Designer contact me.❤
The fact you script tour videos beforehand makes a huge difference in how much editing needs to be done and the overall quality too
This is a great video especially the "tips" at the last part.
I am a photo and video editor. I worked (and still working) on different types of videos from music, interviews, short film, events, weddings, etc... I can tell with certainty that "communication" before starting any project saves a lot of time and targetless revisions... To have a clear understanding of what the final video output is for (Who your video is for and message), availability, turnaround time, service costs are just some of the topics to discuss before having an agreement... To all clients and editors reading this message - may you have a good, friendly, fruitful and professional relationship always. God bless you and your works!
First I need to earn so much that I can afford an editor. Great video! 👍
U probs be able to afford because I don’t pay as much to edit your videos dm time in insta to see how much I pay it’s video_editor125
me too!
@@LoriLivers I can do it for you for free until you can get some money of it
Then hire me as your editor
@@omerali1568 can u for me bro?
really insightful video--my advice as an editor is for those seeking editors, be as detailed as possible with briefs for videos. The more detailed and well planned out a video is, the easier the edit will be. Try and refrain from filming, and then thinking about what you want it to look like after. No one likes loads of revisions, communication is key. As well as this, try and remember editors are creative people! When you hand over a video to edit, it will not come out exactly the same as if you yourself were to edit it, just like any art!
How much do you charge to edit videos?
depending on the project day rates could be $160 +@@allaboutkarrissaqueen2877
I have been editing for 4 years now and this is the best video that has been recommended to me. I’ve worked for channels with 2m and 11m subscribers and they follow all the steps that you mentioned. Also, more successful the RUclipsr is, more humble they are. I will share this video with my clients who need some insights. Thanks !
I have a question how do you find a client other than upwork or freelance website because Im trying to find clients and its really hard
@@MiksZY Upwork and fiverr are really tricky to figure out. You need to do a bit of experimenting there and build your portfolio. Secondly, apply to agencies near you. Keep on adding it to your portfolio and eventually, you will get consistent clients from both sides and you can ask any of them to hire you directly. It took me one full year just to create a consistent flow and it’s not a one time job actually, I have to be ON it all the time
@@MiksZY I can be your client lol I have a dragon ball voice acting channel with over 3k if you’re interested
I'm a video editor for more than 10 years, and I've had a lot of clients who don't give enough details on how they want me to edit their videos. What he said about damaging the relationship when having too much revisions is true. They give you raw videos. Doesn't give you enough details. You edit it and then they want some revisions. It's crazy.
Hey I'm interested in hiring you as a video editor. Let me know if you are interested.
This happened to me recently. I asked for a rough draft, layout so I can have an idea of what the person wanted. Wouldn't give me anything so I just guessed. Then they had to nerve to say they're concerned about paying for "simple edits " 🙄
@@travismalone4575 Hey man. I just read your comment today. I would have grabbed this opportunity if I saw this sooner. But now I'm working on a long term project.
@@GamingWithJazz I know right? Sheesh.
@@travismalone4575 don't know if you are still interested in hiring one for very low amount but very high quality, we can work out something,
This video really fills a need that I have been having for quite some time. Thank you Gillian for taking the time to really give us a quality video. Your interview was fantastic. And I really learned from your demonstration (using your own computer) was good. I truly can tell that you put a lot of thought into each of your videos. That is a great example for me. I would love to see an example of your RUclips outline. A future video suggestion for me would showing us step by step how you outline your own RUclips videos. God bless you!
Awesome! I'm glad you found it helpful and enjoyable! 🥰
as an editor, I second that communication is key. If you leave the editor to their own means they are gonna give you back something that's good for them, but might not meet YOUR expectations... I try to be very realistic with what I can offer and deliver, but clients gotta meet me halfway! great video.
How do you get work.(traffic)?
How much do you charge and what specifically do you charge for I terms of skill.
If you don't mind answering. If it's personal I understand though 😅
@@cold485 i've had some success going into social media communities and organicaly commenting what i do.
I quote for what i'm asked to do and i live abroad but i try to aim at $11 per hour, talking head videos i can edit in 4 work hours (up to half an hour in lenght) and if i can commit to 4 each month i usually package for $150. Greater lenght or volume or shorts i quote accordingly. But thats a ballpark for You. Hope it helps. Good luck
Thumbs up thanks for this video. Very well thought out and informative.
Hi Gillian, I thought you gave a lot of good and valuable information in this "How to hire a video editor for your YT channel' video. In particular the last few minutes of the video where you showed us how you document the communication with the editor was really helpful!
So glad I found your video. Outstanding! Looking for an editor now, and appreciate the insight and tips.
Thanks for the information.... But damn girl, your hair is good. BEAUTIFUL !
Very informative video! Totally agree that outsourcing your video editing and hiring an editor will not only save you time but also help you grow your channel a lot faster! Thanks for the valuable insights and tips!
Gillian ... you're always above and beyond ❤❤❤
WOW!!! Gillian you're so right !!!!! I video edit for people who want to make more videos, upload more and get more views and these are definitely the steps you need! I use all 3 types of pricing with my clients. It's which ever they prefer and helps them get the best results. This video is a must watch till the end! Thanks Gillian
Do you edit movies
Thank you for sharing this I have been testing out an editor and have been wondering about a lot of the questions you're talking about so happy to see this and as always great job on explaining this Gillian!!!
Hey k rene
I am a video editor
I can edit for you
Thanks for all the useful information Gillian!
I learnt this mistake of not hiring a video editor the hard way. I should've treated it like a business from the start even before I started earning from it.
Nice content! Maybe one day I will be there 😁❤️ Thank you for inspiration!
This video is so clear, I love it. Need to implement this on my RUclips channel
Thank you for sharing.Hope everybody here becomes successful on RUclips!
Hey, I’m a RUclips video editor, contact me if you need one
Great, informative video ✨✨you answered all my questions and then some.
Great video. Exactly what I needed to know. Thank you so much Gillian!
Thanks for the great info as always Gillian!
informative 20mins+ on hiring a editor/s and how much time they save you.
So gorgeous! Love your advice and tips.
Greetings from Philippines 🇵🇭
Thank you very much for the content Gillian !
I always love your helpful tips! :-)
Hope to get better at this, too. More power!
I can’t even begin to tell you how helpful this video is! Thank you ❤
You're so welcome! ❤️
👏excellent work, super helpful, THANK YOU!
I don't think I've heard the word editor so many times in one video. Great tips as well!
Amazing video Gillian - massive thank you
We are at that point where I need an editor to save time. Plan and film more. But highly doubt I can afford a high end editor. I know our channel is going to be big though!
thank you for demystifying this subject - I am yet to find a VE and not so savvy or time rich to do it all myself - now I have some helpful guidelines the search may be less ambiguous.
I'm looking for work. I've been needing a consistent editing job for a while now. Everyone tells me I'm great at it but most don't seem to have the budget to consistently give me work, so I'm usually just writing and editing my own stories and video essays, in the hopes that it'll go somewhere but I'm far more passionate about the behind-the-scenes of everything I watch so I think this would be ideal for me!
Wow your camera looks amazing. What camera and lens are you using if you don’t mind me asking. Also thanks for the tips !
Super helpful video! I'll be hiring a video editor soon and this video answered all of my questions.
I know this is 1 month late but I can edit your videos if you want!
I am interested ma'am
editing is the biggest challenge for me! But - because my channel doesn't provide income I can't justify the expense of an editor - yet! I am going to keep practicing and keep working towards getting better 😀

Such a great breakdown, thank you for this vid!

Hope to reach that level some day ❤️
Great video Gillian with lots of value 👍 💯 I was just looking into hiring an editor, great timing! 🔥 Cheers, Kurt

If you want edit your videos please contact me i send you my profile
@@designconcepts2274 send me your email.
Great video, thank you Gillian! Good idea about your doc with 3 columns. My challenge at the moment also is that cad is so much lower than usd. But in the future hope to work with an editor.
I wish you had shown the workflow file at the ned more in detail. That's precisely what I'm looking for at the moment.
Exactly what was on my mind!
I want to start a series of videos doing public questions with strangers. I would need a filmer and editor to do that. Would $15 a hour be fair for a filmer and then give them a additional $5 to edit the videos as well? The editing would be very basic work.
Thanks God I have my husband editing my videos 😍 and Thank you for sharing this ❤️❤️
Nice video, I was thinking of hiring someone as I'm getting to that stage, but honestly the hassle of back and forth with some of these guys is not worth the time in certian cases, better to do self quick edits - having said this greatly depends upon the type of channel and content being produced.
I understand that communication is really important. I've been needing a consistent editing job for a while now. Everyone tells me I'm great at it but most don't seem to have the budget to consistently give me work, so I'm usually just writing and editing my own stories and video essays, in the hopes that it'll go somewhere but I'm far more passionate about the behind-the-scenes of everything I watch so I think this would be ideal for me!
This video was so helpful thanks a ton💕💕💕💕
Awesome!!
good luck to everyone that wants to start a RUclips channel and always remember"Patience is key"
this is really helpful for a person who struggles making videos. thanks for this
if your still looking for an editor, I can edit your videos for you just hmu on ig @shelbymaditt
Hiiii I hope you see this! How do you and your editors go about sending videos and clips back n forth? (due to the files being so large)
It works fine by email or telegram without any quality reduction.
Great insight! Thank you very much… we applied the reach out to local connection and pushed indeed.
We ended up having too many qualified candidates haha
We hired 3 !!
Thank you
Oh boy I have so many things I feel the need to tell/inform/correct you on… ya know what, I think I might just make a response video to you.

@@realgman349 I do - I freelance after my full-time job ,)
Awsome thank you
Great content
Nice and very helpful video. Love u from Bangladesh🇧🇩🇧🇩🇧🇩
Ahhh, praying for the day I can get to outsourcing part of my content creation work to someone. But then I enjoy every aspect of it, though. What I would've gladly got rid of, is my active outsourcing business. I love what I'm doing, but too much work for me (gettin' older maybe?..). Shifting to IT consultancy now.
Hi Gillian...I’m a photographer & videographer and editor🙋🏻♂️I’m editing my videos by using my awesome iPad Pro I really love it
who else prefers editing instead of recording lol
It depends. Normally, up until a couple of days ago, I hated editing. However, I love recording whenever I am playing a game. My last video was only a short video on Blitzball from Final Fantasy X. On top of the game being enjoyable, the editing actually inspired me to ENJOY editing, because it turned out so well (in my opinion). It took around 5 hours to edit the video to my liking (also thanks to the editing software's RUclips giving some amazing tutorial videos that helped). Overall, I'd say recording is preferred, with editing slowly becoming more enjoyable. Awesome question! Thank you.
HELL YEAH!! Filming is the bane of my existence! Editing is cool. :)
me
if the editor can do the voice and everything you would be really successful
I like the editing because I suck at games even mine craft it takes hours to make a clip but I’m decent I like to customise things as a hobby and I’m creative
Very informative
Next video: „How to get hired as an editor“
Nice to get information about video editor.....
Hey Gillian! I've been seeing your content and I gotta say, I'm impressed! I previously reached out to see if we can discuss an idea of a video that will go viral! Please let me know how to best contact you and I'll be happy to share it with you! Keep up the good work!
Ty So Much!! Mom got Me Editor! 😊
I’ve been dying to hire an editor for my YT and insta/tik tok 😭 it’s been a struggle for over 6yrs and the editing is what overwhelms me because I can record/write/create but the video editing feels like it defeats me lol I once paid $100 someone to edit my YT and idk if it was worth it. Thank you for this! It’s hard describing what I want but I’m still hoping I’ll find someone to work with long term. Good luck peeps!
I can work with you .. i have a 4 years experience in the editing and if you want i will edit the first video for free for u to see the quality of editing so if you want to to start reply to this comment and we will find a better way to communicate better than youtube comments 🤝
I've been making content mostly on youtube but on other video platforms as well for 15 years, and even though I've never been brand-friendly enough to go viral, I'm so tired of going it alone. My mom died two years ago and I decided to spend part of the life insurance trying to find other freelancers to delegate some of the work to so I can concentrate on actually making new content--like a social media manager to make all the promo posts for me, and/or a web developer who can make my website not look so messy and set up an e-commerce site for, and a video editor who can just take the most rambly parts out of my vlogs and cut out excessive umms, that's really it. But I have not been able to figure out WHERE to find any of these people to hire, certainly no one with any experience working on videos. Every freelance hiring site I try, I get bombarded with barely-coherent copypasta posts from people in undeveloped countries with no proof of portfolio, and that's it. Where do you go to find legitimately professional freelancers to hire?!?
I've been needing a consistent editing job for a while now. Everyone tells me I'm great at it but most don't seem to have the budget to consistently give me work, so I'm usually just writing and editing my own stories and video essays, in the hopes that it'll go somewhere but I'm far more passionate about the behind-the-scenes of everything I watch so I think this would be ideal for me!
The youtube editor available now is pretty functional and has great tools, But it doesnt figure out creative visual storytelling for you! You need a skilled producer for that!
Need editor hire me straight to the point !
My editing has slightly improved since I started editing a year ago but I really need an editor. This is really helpful. But I always feel like I need to grow first before anyone would want to work with me 😅
hey, if you're still looking I could probably help. I'm also looking to grow as an editor so I guess it could work
Hey, you still need an editor? I'll be up for it! I also need more experience! I mainly edit gaming videos!
Hopefully one day!❤️
Nice presentation!
Very very good video.👌💯😮💨
Hi there! I have been editing my own videos for years (which are now offline) and so love to edit other people's videos as well. If you are interested, let me know.

Hey what's the best way to get in contact with you?
Just monetized my channel! I would love to get to the point of hiring an editor... not their yet but maybe in the future! Editing is my least favorite part!

This might be a dumb question but do editors find b roll for you too?
Yes, Hi, I am a video editor and I would like to work with someone interested. How can I get in contact with you?
Is there any special considerations you can think of for gaming youtubers?
BTW like your hair 😍😍
I watch two two three times your video
It is really stressful to edit vids make vids go to school study
Be social and all that stuff I really need an editor butttttt I don't have that much I am 13 soooooo
Don't worry i can do it in your budget let's connect :)
Love the video! I am a new video editor and I was wondering if you or anyone in the comments Would you recommend asking for more money if the video includes sponsored content or should this be the same cost as a regular video without?
Good
For now I will edit my videos myself
When she says about proving your editor with a guild so they know what you want is important. Somene reached out to me for a trial run. They gave very little info as to how they wanted the sample to be structured. I asked for an outline so I know where to put what effect or what effect ( eg at this mark I want a text bumper) So just guessed because I asked 5 times for a rough draft. Then they came back and had the nurve to say they're "concered" about paying for "simple edits" well if they were so concered they would have made a layout like she showed what she makes for her editor.
PLEASE make some sort of chart for your editor/potential editor in reagrds to how you want the video to be structured. If you're vauge more than likely they will just guess.
Why I need editor:
-Decent
-Lazy
How do you know how long they spent on the video? Couldn’t someone lie about how long it took them to make the video if your paying per hour?
There are time trackers that help to track hours.
do you need an editor?
@@sabelahmad2933 yes I do
can you make a video on how to make your own podcast?

I could help you edit I know how to cut on beat and add graphics , clip cuts , and intros . I know how to add music . So what do you say

@@chewythedog yea ofc 👍
@@chewythedog Hi there, we meet again, lol
Honestly no one of your viewers should hire a video editor. It's useless if you are small. Not just useless, but dangerous.
Absolutely
It depends on whether they have enough capital to invest to produce high-quality videos regularly or a business already in place that can take advantage of video advertising on RUclips.
@@letsdomath1750 you have a point
@@HiMyNameIsKim You might be spending what you can't afford when you have other financial obligations that take priority.
@@HiMyNameIsKim if you are at the beginning, you will build your editing style (and learn) and people will recognize you. If you let others edit your video people will notice that the style is different, and everytime you change in the future you would have to think twice.
