Introduction: Anyone can hold a video camera and shoot a long, homemade video by themselves. We separate your video and your company from the competition with professional quality motion graphics and special effects compositing. Polished videos that are exciting and well-paced bring in more viewers than the alternative. There is so much digital media available out there for people to watch, it's hard nowadays to get them to risk even a few minutes to watch what you've created.
So much of my job is convincing clients that I'm legitimate and skilled and that my prices are justified. What I really love is sitting down to a new project and editing for 8-15 hours straight with no interruptions.
Sometimes I'll make 2 or even 3 versions of the entire video just to try things I was hoping to do at somepoint and then I just charge the client for the good one.
I also like getting money quite a bit which probably falls second to enjoying the editing. Which leaves conducting the actual business portion at 4th or 5th though I am happy I'm gettting better at interfacing with potential clients.
