The Year of Million Dollar Editors
I wanted to get this out before midnight…
It's hard to believe that it's already been a year since the launch of The Million Dollar Edit, but I couldn't be more thrilled with the progress we've made.
From day one, the goal has been to help as many creators as possible get their hands on some practical video editing training, and I’m thrilled to have almost reached 800 students so far.
But we're not stopping there - our sights are set on helping over 10,000 soon-to-be editors elevate their skills and take their careers to the next level.
You of all people know that video editing can seem intimidating at first, but trust me - it doesn't have to be. You don't need 500+ hours of training or to be a social media guru to master the art of video editing.
With the right resources and guidance, anyone can learn to create stunning videos that capture the attention of their audience.
I am grateful to you and to every student who has trusted me to help them on their journey, and it's been an honor to get to know our creators and learn about their hopes and dreams. As we press on into the future, we're committed to delivering an awesome experience for every new editor who walks through these doors.
I am so thankful to have the chance to work with y’all. You bring such energy and drive to each and every session, and it is a joy to watch the community develop and learn.
Your commitment to putting in the effort and dedication needed to succeed is truly motivating, and I am privileged to be a part of your journey. I eagerly anticipate continuing to work with this awesome community.
As a course creator, my plans for 2023 are to continue providing life-changing trainings and support to my students even further. I am always looking for ways to improve and update my course material, and I am committed to staying current with the latest trends and techniques in the field of video editing.
In the new year, I plan to introduce new modules and resources to help my students further develop their skills and reach their full potential as video editors.
As for my students, my advice for the new year is to set clear and achievable goals as video editors. It is important to have a roadmap in place to help guide your progress and keep you motivated. Whether you are just starting out or are an experienced editor, there is always room for growth and improvement.
Keep hacking away!
I encourage my students to take on new challenges, seek out opportunities to learn and grow, and be open to feedback and constructive criticism. With hard work and dedication, I have no doubt that my students will achieve great success in the field of video editing.
Cheers,
Jordan P. Anderson
