How to Slay Your Video Editing with Video Editor Emily Olson

Editing your videos can be scary, but we're here to your rescue! We’ve got you covered as lifestyle YouTuber and video editor, Emily Olson, steps in to save the day. In this episode, she shares the most important tips and tricks you need to know to make your videos stand way above the rest! “I want to tell people, don’t put that much pressure on yourself. A lot of YouTubers have a lot of help, as they should.” When Emily started on YouTube, she had aspirations of getting to the top of the makeup & fashion niche. But through pursuing her creative passions, she serendipitously got connected to another YouTuber, Nikki Phillippi, and her editing career magically began. Now she jokingly calls herself a “full-time YouTuber who doesn’t make videos” and works with Nikki Phillippi full-time, as well as a number of other creators. “I think you have to be bad at something before you’re good at it.” I really love Emily’s passion. She pours so much into each video she edits, and her goal is always to bring out the best in the person she's editing and make them look as good as possible. Emily lives in California with her droneographer husband and two children. “Put a blooper, a two-second scene in the beginning, to hook the audience, give them a tiny preview, and then go to the intro.” Check out the show notes.
