Shownotes
When does your editing business invest in new equipment? Is it when productivity lags? Or is it merely a matter of budget? How do you know when it’s REALLY time to replace equipment? And then what determines how much you spend?
We help Bryan decide whether to purchase a new Mac computer or stick with his old one. Plus, file storage, video editing, and impostor syndrome!
Questions to ask before you buy that thing…
- Is this an emotional desire or practical need?
- How long will your investment to last?
- Is your need for the gear long or short term?
- Is there a work-around?
When you spend more time crashing and rebooting than editing, it’s time to get a new computer.
Also covered...
- We get into file storage because you can never back up enough.
- Bryan is NOT a PC guy.
- What video software is the easiest?
- Daniel discusses his recent experience with Impostor Syndrome… notice how we approach it through awareness and practical experience.
- We share the value of accountability and you’ll probably learn a new word.
- Getting inspiration from others who are doing similar things as you isn’t really stealing… or is it?
- Should Jennifer do a course? (yes, I think she should)
- Jennifer, a skeptic, gives a review of Descript
- Descript Tip: Use Ctrl/Cmd + F to find a word or phrase to delete en masse
