Confused: I Don't Know Which One To Go For by Godbuoy: 12:04pm On Sep 27, 2019
Good afternoon all.
I created a new nairaland account because of this, I got relieved of my job last month and I am willing to learn a new skill before the year runs out.

I am trying to choose between video (film) editing along with cinematography or web development (Php) but seems to be confused with which one to go for. I also have graphics in mind but that would come later so guru in the house, please help me decide the one I should go for so that I can have a side hustle with it.

If u have a better option, u are free to drop it as well.

Thanks.

Video editing is easier to learn than web development but web will cost less in terms of material. If you have the capital go with video/cinema.

Cinematography is faster to learn but cost more
Depending on how you market ur service u can get a good ROTI(return on time invested) within relative short period of time.... It's less saturated but still needs more expensive equipment and software..... Both camera for filming and laptop for editing...

While web design and development is slower to learn... Wider in scope of work and market but a little bit more saturated...
Also cheaper to learn.... With a cheap laptop u can start and get paid.... ROI if faster here....

From what you said seems u don't have a lot of money... So take web design and development..

U can immediately start freelancing online...
