Good afternoon nairalanders,

I am a 26 years old single father of one, I currently do not have a job but only few side hustles.

I have little experience in graphics design but I'm looking to grow by learning and mastering a skill. I really grew interest in vlogging(video creation and editing) though I don't have what it takes to get the training underway, but also I have a friend who a fashion designer who's ready to train me become a fashion designer.

I don't want to go for a skill I will later regret in future, whatever I learn now I want to master it and grow with it.

What does the future hold for both skills?
Which is more reliable and profitable?
Which of the skills can I easily grow with?

Thanks for your sincere inputs.
Mods kindly help move to frontpage, I need opinions

Here's a thought: whichever one you choose make sire you're damn Good at it and also build an amazing business personality and great i terpersonal relationship.

Now my analysis:

With your past experience in Graphics Design, you can also get back into it in support of your side hustle to raise funds for what you need to get into video editing and content creation... And your target has to be Hollywoodstandard..I'm talking Premiere Pro + After Effects + Davinci Resolve + Blender/Cinema4d + other add-ons... You don't have to pay for the programs yet (getintopc.com)

Your experience in graphics design will help you in learning Video Editing and Production (I'm starting this journey too) .....so you will have to give it all your best.. You don't have to buy courses just yet... (Udemydownload.com). The future prospects are good as your targets are media houses, freelancing, music video and movie productions, ad creation with decent pay too.

Downside: There are many apps springing up today that's making every Tom Dikk and Harry being a personal video editor.. So the competition will be high later... Unless you stand out.

Fashion Design will also always be worth its weight in gold. You just have to learn more than just buba and shokoto.. Get the basics and keep learning... Learn how to make suits, customize Bags and shoes self With ankara et al.

Then learn how to sketch fashion pieces online.. You don't need to be a Leonardo Davinci to learn..... Create an online presence as you start so that when you're proficient you can leverage your audience for getting patronage

do both u can learn both
