Part 5/7:
Identify and join creator communities on platforms like Discord, Reddit, or YouTube. Paid communities may offer better opportunities since they often host serious creators.
Once there, engage with members to find those who are having issues with their editing. Instead of making a blanket offer for your services, respond to specific inquiries where you're able to offer solutions.
Method 2: Participate in Editing Trials
Editing trials offer a competitive avenue for showcasing your skills. These contests require you to edit a specific clip based on instructions provided by the YouTuber. Winning these trials often leads to paid work, allowing you to prove your capability.
Be prepared, though; this route can be highly competitive, and skills in fast editing are essential.
