Irene, thank you for this video. It was very interesting for me. Can you please advise what is the best way to start a career as a video editor?
@irenezarubina4 ай бұрын
First things first it’ll be great to have an observation, you can find inspiration on KZbin, in movies and series, in advertisements. And try to mention details, what they use to do this and that. Make notes. And then start to edit simple videos, trying to combine clips into logical sequences. For instance you can take your favorite movie and cut a teaser from it. There’s no straight advice here: you need to have an interest as in every thing you do, practice a lot, copy editing styles of others in attempt to recreate the same effect. And of course you will need a good gear cause editing takes a lot of processing and rendering. Just do your first step and look what will happen ;)

Dear Irene, You're not lost in your thirties, you are doing wonderful. You're so pretty and I love to see you smile! It's a blessing you and your husband can work from home remotely. I had forgotten just how truly organized you are. You write everything down and keep to a schedule Well done Irene! You have a career, a nice apartment with a beautiful view, friends, a loving husband and doggie. Spock is a super cute pup. I remember him from your moving video. You know, sometimes we look at our lives and see what we haven't done and don't realize what we already accomplished. You're 30 going on 31. Forgive me for saying this but in my eyes, your still a baby. I mean you're so young. You have your whole life ahead of you. You should be excited about the next sixty plus years of your life. Have a another cup of coffee and enjoy the ride of life. Take care and try to stay cool.....Love, Steve.

Haha yeah, sometimes I feel like a baby either 😄 You’re right, by the way. I’m really happy for my life now, even when I feel lost. Even when it seems that life’s falling apart. But I love my job, I love my life here in the present moment and I try not to plan for years from now. Just for couple of months. Yesterday I was watching my own video also with moving from Russia and realized how my life changed 🙌🏻

It is good to see you again. I am sorry you were dealing with depression. I have enjoyed your videos, and always thought of you as successful. Look at what you have accomplished...moving to another country, knowing how to edit, and produce a youtube channel. I could never do that. I think as we age, and the years go by, we will have many different roles in our lives. I am 73 and have been a nurse, wife, mother, and grandmother. I have always felt somewhat successful to a degree in each of those areas. Now, however I, like you feel at a loss knowing what i am to be doing with my life. I love being able to help others. I love watching videos of youtubers just showing their everyday life...especially from other countries. Just be yourself and don't be so hard on yourself. You are an interesting person, and I will be looking forward to more videos.

And reading comments like this makes me smile and happy. Even just 1 person on this planet still enjoying my videos - that motivates me to do more. I pressured myself for not doing anything on my channel but I really forgot what I went through, and that I have 2 jobs and need just to find some time to be here, to be present and to share what I'm doing. Small youtube channels also motivate me. Thank you!

Hello Irene, I too have suffered from depression and anxiety. I used to have full blown panic attacks but not any more. Doctors said I had a chemical imbalance in my brain. I've been on an anti-depression drug for almost as long as you been alive. It's not a cure all but it helps a a lot. Please listen to me Irene. Please do not try to compare yourself to others or other KZbinrs. You are a beautiful young woman, just be yourself....always. It's wonderful that you have a loving husband and a doggie for support. Just love one another, everything will turn out okay. Look, I'm 52 and I still don't have it all figured out yet. It's okay...trust me. I know it's hard for you. I know you would like to be back home in Russia. Things will get better, it may not seem like it, but they will. Just remember to be yourself and love yourself. Life is NOT a competition...the only one you have to please is yourself. I don't think your life sucks at all, I don't think you should think it does either. Love, Steve.🤗❤🙏

Hi, Steve! Thank you for your honest comment, I loved to read this. And grateful for support as always. You know, I don't want to be back to Russia, for real, I'm happy now in Serbia and my life changed in a good way after we moved from Turkey to Serbia, so I'm looking forward to see what new life can gift me in future. I'm trying not to pay attention to others and not to listen critics etc. But it can be difficult especially when you're so vulnerable and trying to find yourself in a new place. Thank you for sharing with me your experience with anxiety. I had no idea what I was going through, but even shit which sometime happens in our lives can make us stronger and wiser.

Welcome back, Irene! Please take solace in knowing others feel as you do, and temper that with the fact that you are "only" 30 years old. You're just coming into the fulness of life after a difficult time, and I encourage you to try everything that interests you - a job or two, baking, creative writing, dancing with friends, sewing outfits, building birdbaths out of found objects - find your opportunities. And know this - your day to day often becomes your future - if you long for something more, go for it. You're bright and beautiful and restless. Turn your restlessness into interest in all sorts of life pursuits :) I believe you may find joy in simple things that may spark big, achievable dreams. Never, ever too late! Have a wonderful time and please do film more! We love it when you do, and share bits of your life with us - good or bad - we care about you! 🥰

Irene! I am so very happy that you finally posted a video. When I found you over a year ago, I just loved your attitude and really enjoyed your videos. That is what drew me to your channel. I too suffer for severe depression and anxiety and totally understand what it's like to feel lost and hopeless. Please know that I am here if you want to chat. Better still, come to Canada and visit me! I am serious. Don't compare yourself to others. You are amazing just being you. I don't say things I don't mean. Please do more of your videos that gave me joy.......visiting shops, going for a coffee, taking the bus somewhere, visiting your friend's cottage, organizing your apartment, your travels, moving to different locations. All this brought me joy. You know it's not the big things in life that bring joy and happiness. It's the little things. I get joy seeing a butterfly, seeing birds feeding at my bird feeder, seeing people walking their dogs, having a really good cup of coffee, saying hi to a stranger, being kind to someone just because, seeing a new flower on a plant, a beautiful sunset, chipmunks...... You know, I check a couple times a week to see if you've uploaded a new video and am always wondering what you're up to. I feel good energy from you. Please don't give up. Be kind to yourself. You have so much talent. Your family must be so proud of you. Hang in there Irene. Hugs.

Hello Dear, I've already checked out your KZbin channel and reviewed the all videos. Your content is excellent and very enjoyable, but I noticed that your video SEO (search tag optimization) are relatively low. This could be a significant issue as it might be affecting the visibility of your videos, leading to fewer views, likes, comments, and subscribers. Effective video uploading plays a crucial role in SEO. KZbin channels require proper SEO and promotion for optimal growth. If you're interested, I can prepare a report on the progress of your channel.I don't have to pay anything for this work I am waiting for your response. . Thank you.
