andyblinks05: I realize that I need like 20 above to get a PC that I can work with and it will be a lot of struggling for me to raise that kind of amount thats why I decided to ask for help. 20 what? Lmao, you are not serious about learning then. If you will be learning with full HD camera footage, the least pc is maybe 80k, if you can get a core i5 or higher with at least 8gb ram and 64bit, even at that, it will still be dragging a lot, so you will need a lot of patience to use it. We will talk about graphics card later when you are advanced. 1 Like |

For you to be a professional video Editor you need some graphic design ideas. A video Editor works with graphic software and video editing software. You need to know how to use photoshop and basic knowledge of animation. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

Things are very difficult for Nigerians now so you may find it difficult getting someone to give you any laptop you believe they're not using.
If you believe in your goal and you are ready to work hard to achieve it yourself without waiting for one helper somewhere, I will suggest you use the phone you have now to start doing freelance work till you raise enough money to buy your own laptop.
Go to QA and Gotranscript. Register there and start transcribing... Look for those who have excess work on nairaland and help them do it. Before the year ends you'll make enough money to buy a good laptop to facilitate your learning and even pay for training or premium courses.
If you finish learning, go to Upwork and Fiverr and set up your account there and start making money without waiting for anyone to help you.
This route is not going to be easy... You'll suffer and become frustrated along the way. But if you persevere, you'll come out successful within one year.
If you keep hoping on Nigerians to come and help you, bro you'll be delayed from achieving your goals.
Just look for way to be earning foreign currency small small with your phone first before thinking of learning those skills.

It' depend on the kind of app you would be using for graphic design and video editing. But I would suggest you go for a minimum of 8gb ram/corei5 laptop with a very large hard disk of 500GB for a start. |

Bro, we are both in the same boat. I'm currently learning Web Programming and I plan to start full practical on Graphics Design, UI/UX, and 3d design. The painful part is that I don't have a computer but, I recently found a way to learn everything with my phone. I just discovered that I could run lots of these apps and programming languages on my phone. Have you heard of ExaGear before? That is what I am currently trying to run in my phone. It allows me run PC software on my phone which means I can practice my designs with Photoshop, Illustrator, Adobe XD, Maya etc all on my phone by using a PC emulator.

That's nice too but phone will always have limits to what computer can do do you know how much editing you can do on your phone with Inshot alone? If you really want to do videography or graphics design, forget the limitations. Do it with what you have, even if it's a phone. But get a decent camera phone. Better if you have a laptop with at least core i3 processor. For now, focus your energy on one skill only. It needs all your attention to master it fast. Get a mentor, or be an apprentice/intern/assistant to a working professional to learn even faster. Only after this can you branch out, and explore other skills. 1 Like |

andyblinks05: After forth and back about deciding what Skills to learn and what to do with my life, I decided to learn some skills (even though it will served as a side hustle). The skills I want to learn is video editing/ Graphics design. I choosed them based on interest. Now my question here now is, Are the skills worth investing resources and time to learn? Will I be able to get customer's to earn from ? Will it be possible to learn both skills simultaneously?
And pls I do realize that some people have things that they don't use again and instead of giving them out they tend to stack it away in the store or basement. For me to achieve my aim I wish someone would help me out with his/her laptop that is no longer at use whether faulty or not, it will go a longer longer way in helping start up.
Thanks in anticipation Andy As a professional graphics designer with 7 years of experience, my advice to you is: Start with one, MASTER IT before you proceed to others. Start with Graphics, reason being "it's the first to make you money" there's high demand of graphics daily. If you're starting with graphics: Learn illustrator first if you intend breaking into international freelance platforms and Add photoshop, and inDesign to it. If you intend focusing on local market, learn Coreldraw and photoshop. If you master the above, you can start learning motion Graphics... (using After Effects) Get a pc with at least 6-8 GB of Ram, icore 3 and above, hdd can be from 120 GB and above. Reasons I'm suggesting you start with Graphics: *Video editing... you'll need a very good and expensive PC with good graphics card, RAM and Processor. (without this, Rendering will frustrate you till you give up) *You need to be extremely good before you even consider taking jobs... Going for the 2 at once will lead to abandoning all, because you'll never feel satisfied with yourself or progress. 14 Likes |
