EllieBarker 0 #1 August 3, 2016 I have been filming my dives for years with a GoPro helmet, but I want to start sharing this footage with friends, family, and skydiving enthusiasts on social media. I don’t want to just share the raw footage, but I want to make my videos special by adding in some music or doing some special effects. Where can I find a website to take care of editing my videos to my specifications? I would prefer to spend the extra dough to hire someone to edit my videos instead of learning how to use iMovie. Any suggestions? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kiwiskydiving 0 #2 August 3, 2016 Gopro studio is as easy as it can get. It's free and created specifically for gopros. Take the time to learn it by watching some youtube tutorials......My skydiving blog: www.kiwiskydiving.com /// youtube channel: kiwiskydiving Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Any suggestions? I would guess that many video editor type people that already work at a DZ would enjoy making a little extra money editing on the side. However, if you don't want every video to look and sound very similar, that might be a more difficult or more expensive task. Tandem factories knock out dozens of videos each day but most look and sound very much alike. If you are okay with that, then no problem. But if you want each one to be different or interesting in a new way, that is a creative challenge that you might have to pay a lot more for. Someone I hire will have different taste than I do. While their work might be great, it might not be to my taste.Instructor quote, “What's weird is that you're older than my dad!” Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The111 0 #4 August 3, 2016 EllieBarker Where can I find a website to take care of editing my videos to my specifications? To add to what Dan says above, IMO video editing is an art, and specifications do not apply to art. Specifications are for engineering (I say this as both an engineer and an artist). That won't help you much in your search, but it is food for thought. www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JosephRay 0 #5 August 23, 2016 One service that I use for this kind of stuff is Valoso (www.valoso.com). You can hire freelance video editors to edit all kinds of videos for you. I like that you can set the price, deadline, and everything else yourself instead of paying for an expensive production company and not getting to choose these options. Let me know what you think about it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FlyingRhenquest 1 #6 August 23, 2016 I use kdenlive for this. It's a respectably powerful open source application. I run it on Linux, but I'm pretty sure you can get it with Cygwin or Darwin Ports if you run Windows or OSX.I'm trying to teach myself how to set things on fire with my mind. Hey... is it hot in here? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
