The Job

Since 2018 I have worked part time with The Marketing Crowd mainly as a video editor but also doing some website updates. Occasionally I work in the office in Kerry but most of this work is done remotely as I am attending University in Dublin. 

​

Video editing:

  • I use a video editor  called Filmora on PC and I edit training videos. 

  • The editing involves cutting out parts of the video, adding music, graphics and text

  • Designing graphics and thumbnails for the videos in Canva

  • I also upload the videos to a video hosting platform (Sprout Video) 

 

Website updates:

  • Occasionally I update the company website and also the members’ website. Both of these are Wordpress websites.

  • The website updates typically involve adding images, editing text and embedding videos.

    Skills I learned

    • Technical skills: Such as Video editing, website maintenance and image design.

    • Visual presentation skills:  I have learned the importance of being able to present complicated information to people in an understandable way  though video editing and creating graphics

    • Time management & prioritisation: I often work to deadlines as the video need to be edited on time. I also need to juggle and prioritise this work with my studies.
