Thanks Mr. Artem for your services 🙏🏻 Honestly super greatful for this this is awesome

An old client I've had in the past referred me to this guy, we went in a call where I've asked him his pain points and helped him understand his situation and getting closer to his goals (It was pretty much a sales call, but it was very chill). I've closed a deal for 5 pretty simple videos: 2 of them are long form talking head, but mostly cuts and some visuals, 2 of them are literally just cuts for another guy to clip into short form. WWWW One 3 minute talking head video aswell

yeah that's it..... 24 minutes video btw

I’ve been editing for two years now. Most of my clients were low-paying, or the jobs were just plain bad. That’s why I quit editing in August 2024, thinking I’d never get paid more than $150 per video or work fewer than 4 hours a day—if I was lucky. So, I spent the entire summer just playing video games and doing nothing with my life. I felt this void inside me, like I had no purpose. Life felt static, like I was on repeat, chasing quick dopamine hits, doing meaningless stuff. One night, I tried something different—I stayed away from all devices, didn’t talk to anyone, and just sat in my bedroom thinking about the last few months. I got angry, realizing I had wasted almost three months doing absolutely nothing. The next day, I sat down at my Windows PC, deleted every game, removed every friend on Discord who played games, deleted my YouTube account (because I kept watching gaming content), and got rid of everything else that was holding me back. For a few days, I was bored and didn’t know what to do. But then, I decided to open After Effects and Premiere one more time. The feeling I got was like freedom—like I broke out of the jail that had been holding me back mentally and physically. By the end of October, I had made my first video in months. It was something I’d never done before—I didn’t take inspiration from another editor like I used to. I just created a clean 3D animation and motion graphic from scratch. I uploaded it to Twitter, and it got double the likes, double the comments, and almost double the views. That was the moment that flipped the switch in me. I got hooked. I started reading books, watching videos, creating crazy “CEO” routines—waking up at 5 AM to work before school, grinding after school until my eyes couldn’t stay open. I was doing everything I could to improve my editing and make more money. Since then, I’ve become a bit more chill about the whole grind mindset. Artem really helped me—not just with editing, but also with realizing that I’m human too. One of the biggest things he helped me understand is that having a work-life separation will actually help me in the long term.

Unfortunately, I was in a call, so I don’t have screenshots. However, this is what I told him. If anyone wants to steal it, thanks to Artem! Hey X btw, I took a detailed look at this video and started working on it, and everything seems really good. We can definitely make this a banger! Since we haven’t worked together for a while, I’ve raised my usual rate to 600$, but for me to put in the extra time to make it a banger, my rate will be 700$
