Hey everyone,

I’ve been doing basic video editing using mobile apps like VN Editor and CapCut, so I’m comfortable with cuts, transitions and simple effects.

Now I want to move to PC editing and take it seriously. I work in digital marketing, so my goal is to become a professional level editor who can create high-quality content for ads, social media and branding.

I’m a bit unsure where to start on PC - software, workflow and what skills actually matter at a professional level.

Would really appreciate advice on:

• Which software I should focus on first (Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, etc.)
• What skills separate a beginner from a pro editor
• Best way to practice (projects, recreating content, etc.)
• Any learning resources or courses that actually helped you

Thanks in advance!
