[Music] hello hello I just came back from New York and fun as always I love going there but I'm leaving again at the end of this week to go somewhere that I'm very excited about very excited but I also need to get a lot of work done this week I'm going to try to be very productive but also realistic but I thought it'd be cool to kind of document a week in my life here so come along for a productive but realistic week in my life this week is a writing SL editing week so no
filming but a lot of desk work I feel like I haven't really talked about what I do for a living on here or in the past so let me give some context after dropping out of University in my first year I went straight into freelance for video and editing I'm kind of used to working from home by now since I did that for several years it's been nice to set my own schedule but definitely has been a learning curve since it's only me keeping myself accountable but in the past year I've stopped freelance and now
I just do YouTube full-time which has always been a goal of mine then planning usually I like to start start off my week planning everything that I need to work on for the week just so I'm organized then I try to do some writing or any kind of research in the morning and then my afternoon to evening we edit M I need gred cheeses [Music] good morning people we're on the way downtown Toronto we caught the morning train today we're going to meet up with two of my creative friends Melissa and Sabrina we met at
an event here in Toronto and ever since then we try to do co-working sessions every now and then looks like a beautiful day beautiful in the [Music] city yeah it's not too bad today turn is okay [Music] sometimes there's one of them I was here to prce W these are so pretty prob we wait for Sabrina my head's like so Qui I got stuck on the DVP hello mini version of it actually it smells pretty [Music] good chcken sandwich and P the thing containing the ice cream is [Music] edible I'm on the wait list for
this camera right now time to head out I love these kind of [Music] [Applause] [Music] fries B you're the burger [Music] today we got more editing there's always editing so when it comes to an edit most of the time I already know what I'm looking for by the time I'm importing my footage and depending on how filming went but usually I start out by looking for a song for the section that I'm going to edit and if you are familiar with my channel you know I love epidemic sound they have a huge library of music
and sound effects I start by searching up the genre or mood that I'm looking for and I found a couple of options using the find similar tool tool literally a lifesaver once I find the perfect song I download drop it in the timeline and then I'll paste the edit to the song from there I layer sound effects for a more immersive viewing experience sound design is extremely important it determines the overall mood and the outcome of the final product and this is the thing that makes your footage come live and when using epidemic sound all

panel they sent it to me sometime last year and I've been using it ever [Music] since I wish I could say I have a very balanced routine all the time but most of the time I stay up way too late or always feel like I'm playing catchup I used to feel very discouraged about this but I guess there's just going to be some times where I have to stay up and work late to get things done and maybe hopefully can work towards a better routine sometimes it really feels like how on Earth am I supposed
to have time for everything that I want to do a career a social life family time or working out or is it really just a secret that some things will be more neglected than others at least that's how it feels right now in this era of my life it's a work in [Music] progress we are done honestly I'm done for the week maybe I had like two or three more things that I didn't really get to it's not the end of the world and I'm just going to do it when I come back but we
did have a productive week so I'm happy with it now I'm going to go meet up with [Music] [Applause] [Music] Arya good [Music] luck oh oh are we are we good good let's start setting some goals here fine let's go the last game it's the last game just pray to everything that you believe [Music] in let's get it [Music] [Music] J [Music]
