Core Skills for Freelancers: Insights from Emerging Screen Industry Professionals 🚀💼 Discovering Your Essential Skills: Your core skills can be categorized into three fundamental types: technical, professional, and miscellaneous skills. Technical Skills: Technical skills are the expertise that is directly related to the specific work you aim to undertake. For instance, a camera operator's technical skills lie in camera operation, while a VFX production manager excels in the organization of VFX production. ScreenSkills offers a diverse range of training programs suitable for all levels and roles to enhance your technical skills. Professional Skills: Your professional skills encompass your abilities in interpersonal communication and professional conduct. These skills are often transferrable across various industries, sectors, and positions. They encompass effective communication, collaboration and teamwork, problem-solving, the ability to take initiative, and proficiency in IT. Having a good sense of humor and being an excellent team player can significantly enhance your professional journey. Miscellaneous Skills: Your miscellaneous skills encompass a wide array of talents, knowledge, and personal interests. This could include proficiency in another language, a deep passion for medieval history, or being an avid gardener. As you embark on your freelancing journey, displaying genuine passion and eagerness to work in the industry, coupled with the ability to articulate how your professional skills can be applied across various domains, can offset a lack of extensive hands-on experience. Particularly if you possess unique miscellaneous skills that bring specialized knowledge to the production process. With the growing demand for independent professionals and the technological advancements enabling remote work, there has never been a better time to embark on your freelancing journey. #Freelancing #CareerOpportunities #FinancialIndependence 🚀💼

🎬 Mastering the Art of Brevity: My YouTube Shorts Editing Journey 🎬 Taking a two-hour-long podcast and condensing it into a sharp, impactful YouTube Short was no small feat, but the results were worth every minute of the editing process. The challenge was clear: How do you capture the essence of a detailed conversation, covering all the key points, and still deliver the right message in under two minutes? With a keen eye for detail and a deep understanding of content flow, I managed to create a concise, engaging video that resonates with viewers and holds their attention. By strategically selecting highlights, ensuring seamless transitions, and maintaining narrative clarity, I transformed long-form content into a compelling short video that not only informs but also entertains. In today’s fast-paced digital world, conveying powerful messages in a brief format is a skill that can set your content apart. Proud to have honed this skill and excited to bring more stories to life, one short at a time! 🚀 #VideoEditing #YouTubeShorts #ContentCreation #DigitalStorytelling #PodcastEditing #VideoMarketing #CreativeProcess

Hi, newbie question here. If anyone can clear this up for me I’d be grateful. When I come across these open to remote job postings, I always get confused because there’s usually a location attached. Does this mean that the job is open to remote editors etc. anywhere in the world or just in that location? I’m in a different country and this always makes me hesitate to apply. Thanks in advance. #LinkedIn #RemoteFreelancer #Remote #OpenToRemote #Copyeditors #Freelancer #FreelanceEditor #PAFLA

Video production companies: are any of you working with editors remotely? And if so, what is your workflow for getting footage to them, aside from physically sending a hard-drive with the media on? We are interested to see if there is a way to use more remote freelancers but are not sure how to make it happen. Any insights gratefully received.

I'm quitting the film industry, and need your help finding a new role. I'm a cinematographer and digital imaging technician. I've had the privilege of working with big brands, household names, and some cool celebrities. First, COVID happened and all sets were closed. Then, just as things were picking back up, the writers and actors' strike put me out of work. After dealing with this, plus things like low pay, shady producers, and wage theft, it's time I transition. It’s been an amazing run literally living a dream.

VIDEO EDITORS! This one is for you: If you're looking for remote work, take note of these common mistakes: 1. Be prepared for the job! If you're slowed down by hardware issues, it will reflect poorly on your productivity. Similarly, if you don't have the necessary subscriptions for assets, broll or software, why should a company choose you above someone else who does? I'd recommend that you do yourself a favour and prepare as much as possible! 2. Think twice before throwing in graphics or broll for the sake of it; sometimes less is more. Ensure broll is effective and relevant. Also, don't forget to add sufficient sfx/sound design! 3. Where is the client or agency based? There's no use throwing in memes that are popular where you're from, if they do not translate well to other audiences. Do your homework and make sure you're using culturally relevant memes, broll and general stylistic choices. If you make sure to avoid these mistakes, you'll position yourself in the top 10% of applicants and massively improve your chances of getting hired! Let me know if you have any questions, and good luck! #videoeditor #editor #job #application #career #videoedit #videoediting #tips #advice #howtogethired #hiring #work #entrepreneur #business
