Day One at Techie Youth

I started my first day learning how to make online in different avenues. The first half of the day was slightly tricky for me as I had to get used to moving through the course modules without direct guidance. But after I took a thirty-minute lunch break, I quickly realized how I should go about moving through the units.

Today, I went through all the elective introductory videos to get a feel for the type of remote work I could do in order to earn money. I rediscovered the world of video editing and got "sucked" into that unit for a while. I learned a lot about the video editing profession and the top software used in the industry. I got to see what industry professionals do in their daily lives, how they go about creating that "perfect" edit, and they evolve their art form.

Overall, I had an excellent Day One and cannot wait to come back tomorrow for an even better Day Two!
