Starting a YT channel for my drawings, and I've been editing for like 2 hours now. Can't imagine how long it takes some of the bigger, more professional channels to film and edit. Anyone who says it isn't a "real job" has clearly never actually done it before....

MattPat from GameTheorists said it used to take him a month to do one video. It's definitely a job of passion.

All I did was make a video slideshow of 274 drawings set to music with some text effects and a logo for my channel. I can imagine a full fledged video with more effects and stuff takes that long.

Took me upwards of 25 hours to make an 11-minute video on top of spending 2 years getting footage for it. Shit's rough.

Yeah, I'm waiting until I finish a mural I'm working on to launch my channel/social media accounts, probably take me another 4 or 5 months. Gives me time to plan a bunch of videos out though, get an idea of what people like/want to see.

Isnt a professional video editing job like 1 hour of work for 6 seconds of footage or some ridiculous shit like that? I'm so glad when I did commercials and film I didnt work with editing.

One of my teachers said something like expect a week per minute or two and that wasnt even for something like a feature film with loads of FX. It was usually just trying to focus on one thing like rotoscoping and replacing the background.

I can see it. They probably put a lot more effects/cuts in and use better software than I did (windows movie maker).

With my channel I upload like three videos a day and editing eats up ALL my free time. It's basically all I do when I'm not at work and I just don't have enough time to spend playing games for myself or doing other things.

Cool channel, I subscribed. I have a few gameplay vids on my other channel that I used to just upload random videos, cant imagine actually doing walkthroughs. Seems really time consuming.

It definitely is, especially when you're wanting to do games like Xenoblade... >_>

And I meant I upload three videos a week, not a day. Wow, lol. I can't imagine being able to do three videos per day. Especially with my internet speed.
