Might as well turn this into a weekly series... 1️⃣ We've got 2 new legends onboard: @Sabo Gyürky and @Parnay Chopra First of all, welcome to the boys. Second of all, I've already had the 1-1 kick off call with both, and here's the biggest insight for y'all: → Unfortunately, what will get you to the next level is the scary & unsexy thing you don't wanna do: Get better at editing. The formative period in my editing journey was September 2023 – April 2024, where all I was thinking about all day long was editing. $2k → $8k/month in 9 months by getting better. The problem is that most editors stuck at $1-2k don't know HOW to get better. This is where Creative Director Shift™ comes in. "Getting better" is about creating viewer experience, not fancier-looking animations. We've got the lowest prices ever in April, and 8 spots left (after Sabo and Rt just joined). So if you're ready to make the shift yourself, DM me "FTE 1.0" 📩 2️⃣ Casual $2k week by @Belovai Levente (see pics attached) Not much to say here tbf... 3️⃣ I just dropped another banger on youtube I keep seeing editors wasting their hours and potential obsessing over editing "styles" Meanwhile, during that Sep 2023 – Apr 2024 period, I dropped my style completely, started editing for the viewer, and 4x'ed my income.

@Nikos Galanakis just shared the whole story of how he went from $300 to $1,200/video. We covered: - Why 1-2 clients is the sweet spot - What to focus on instead of chasing clients - And what specific improvement led to 4x'ing the prices Excited for you to check out this one ⬇️

Stock footage sucks. Real-world assets tell the story 10x better. And there's a way to find them in literally 2 minutes, here's how:

What's up everyone, I thought I'd let you in on what's happening behind the closed doors... 1️⃣ Our First Public Masterclass Since the beginning of 2026, we've been doing weekly Masterclasses inside the paid FTE community But this Wednesday, we opened the doors to the public for the first time (see pic 1) The feedback has been amazing (see pics 2 & 3), so we're definitely doing more in the future – stay tuned 🚀 2️⃣ Full-Time Editor 2.0 Is Coming I'll be in the trenches for the next 45 days...

You're good at executing: - Creating cool animations - Learning all the trendy editing styles - Using a bunch of shortcuts to edit faster But, there's an issue... ❌ You never actually learned how to think about editing. And that, my friend, is key to editing actually GREAT videos: - The ones you don't get revisions for - The ones that make viewers feel something - The ones other editors can't create, so you become irreplaceable Big Picture Editing Masterclass is in 24 hours. This is gonna be a 90-minute live call (like the picture attached), where I'll teach you and other editors the Edit Like an Author™ framework... So that you can finally stop editing at Level 1.
