FAQ

Common questions

Do I need my own laptop or expensive software to start?

You can start with CapCut, which runs well on most smartphones. A laptop becomes more useful once you move into Premiere Pro for longer-form or client work.

Will I get a portfolio I can actually show clients?

Yes -- the program ends with a video portfolio reel built from real client-style projects, plus a case-study page and freelance profile setup.

Is this only for YouTube/Instagram content, or also brand work?

Both. The curriculum covers short-form social content, long-form YouTube editing, and working from real client briefs for brands and creators.
