#89 - If you have the ability and skills to edit video a great way to supplement your existing income is to do video editing for other people.

Not only can some editing only projects help fill the gap between other clients or projects you have, you can get paid well doing so.

In this episode I chat with Jacob Cross, who I’ve hired to help me film for clients before, but who piqued my interest when he said he and his wife edit YouTube videos for 8 different clients at once on top of the video production work they already do. We discuss how you can find potential video editing clients, how to reach out to them, what the workflow is like, and how to charge them.
