HI guys. I am struggling to edit my EBOOK COVER. I lost my references and I do only have my PDF copy.
I don't want to subscribe to Adobe Acrobat since it's pricey. Can anyone suggest how can I edit my EBOOK COVER via PDF? Or suggest other platforms where I could edit my PDF without altering the entire design. Thank you!!!

I streamed my gameplay of Little Nightmares 2 on Twitch from my Xbox and saved it, but I have one problem. I noticed after scanning through my 3 different clips that the longer the stream went on, the more my voice was delayed. By the end of my 2/4 hour videos, my voice would be delayed by like 3 minutes. Is there a way to sync it to my visuals automatically, or will I need to sync it manually?
(Side question: What are your guys recommendations for free softwares that can handle 4-hour videos?) Twitch
Hi, does anybody have any idea why when I upload on TT my ASMR videos (keyboard tapping, drawing,mouth sounds) get ruined after uploading? They sound just fine on the upload page and as soon as they are posted but once I close and open TT app the sound gets massively blown up and sounds like a jet starting up. out of three videos only one kept its original sound. I don't have this issue on YT Shorts or IG Reels. Thanks for any help
does someone have this grass from akira 120 fps edit ?
Recently I’ve been wanting to get back into editing, and I was hoping to find a free pc editing software that is similar to alight motion, which is what I was using before. people mentioned DaVinci resolve but i don’t have the specs for it. And I’ve already tried adobe after effects 2022 and that couldn’t run well either, since I only have like 12gb of ram. I could always use CapCut but that’s a last resort so I was hoping someone else would have an idea.

I sometimes see videos of NFL or UFC and it's like 60fps full HD. I've tried screen recording and that seems to lower the quality. Any help is appreciated thank you!
I am editing a video for a client and he asked me to edit it in Dan Martell's style. The style itself is pretty easy, but the hard part and something I have been spending the past hour doing is - trying to find the music he uses in his videos. I want to find the names and where to download the exact songs he uses in this video, but I cannot find it... even Shazam won't recognize it. Can someone please help?🙏
I am still developing my editing career and skills, and adhd doesn't help, but I feel bad at times for not editing for more extended periods. My work hauls typically last 1-2 hrs between breaks. (keeping breaks short is another challenge lol) I know breaks are normal but I'm just trying to steadily grow my focus and output. What are y'all's work hauls like? Especially for the professional editors, what does your work day look like?
I'm trying to figure out how to phrase the idea of using multiple pieces of media to create a clip compilation IE a rocket league clip compilation that has effects and design of things such as Geometry Dash or anime. How would I phrase it as a question that would have both positive and negative answers.
There are so many platforms offering unlimited downloads now, but not all of them balance price and quality well. I’ve been trying out Motion Elements’ $19.90 monthly plan, and it’s been great for getting high-quality assets without overpaying. Is that a decent price or are there other options out there that offer the same value?

I'm new to Reddit and i hope i can found some answers here. Im video editor and Im editing just a short-form content for now.
I need new machine and i don't know what to do. I have a budget of 2000€ +/- 200€ approximately, and my question is it better to buy a Mac or PC. The thing is i dont have a problem doing my job from home so it's okay to have a Pc. Also, I love playing games, CS 2 mostly, so I want my machine to be good for that as well.
But primarely Im buying it for work, so if macbook fits more, I would play games on my older PC, it doesnt metter that much.
Thank you for help!

"I've been working on this edit and experimented with several graphs but it still doesn't look good to me. I can't pinpoint what's wrong—maybe the flow, the effects, or the overall vibe.
I’d really appreciate some honest feedback! What do you think I could improve or try differently?
I'm wondering what you all wouls consider to be actual editing. Is it a simple clip split in two or things such as compilations where it's clips back to back with nothing done to them. Or Is it more high quality such as special effects, text, lights etc?
I’m helping my sister with her college project (she’s paying me, so I’m all in). The assignment involves a hypothetical scenario where Kendrick Lamar runs for Congress as a Republican, and I’m in charge of the media strategy.
Here’s my idea: I want to create a mock podcast-style video by splicing together clips of Kendrick Lamar talking (even if it’s out of context) with clips from someone like Logan Paul or Joe Rogan. The goal is to make it look like Kendrick did a podcast with one of them, discussing topics that align with the campaign’s narrative.
I’m not a complete beginner at video editing, but I’m still learning. However, I’m confident that I can pick up new techniques quickly. Do you have any recommendations on tools, techniques, or workflows to help me pull this off and make it look convincing?
Hey l'm currently looking for a laptop setup to for video editing. I'm working with 4k 10 to 12 bit footage h.264 from Sony a7s ill and also the ninja v which gives out pretty big file sizes. I've worked with both Mac and PC before in the past, I'm currently still working with a pc acer desktop that's been good to me but lately I've been travelling a lot and need a laptop for that specific reason. What's a good laptop that would be able to handle the type of footage that I'm shooting and would be good for the next 5 years should I go MacBook Pro with the M3 chip or get the new Lenovo Legion 7i Gaming Laptop 16", or even build something. I use premier pro for editing and also do a few vfx in after effects so i need a really good graphics card
