How to BECOME a VIDEOMAKER in 2025

But how do you become a videomaker? (And actually start making money with videos)
Every day I receive messages on Instagram from guys and girls asking me how to get started in the video world. Some have just bought their first camera, some have been editing for a while but can't find clients, and some dream of making a living doing what they love: telling stories through images.
And that's exactly why I decided to make this video.
Because a few messages can never truly explain everything it takes to turn a passion for video into a real job.
When I started, in 2016, there were no creators or trainers who openly talked about filmmaking, content creation, or strategies for making money with videos. Everything I learned, I learned the hard way, making mistakes, investing time, money, and a lot of energy.
Over the years, however, I've understood how this world really works and have helped hundreds of people take the same path: from enthusiasts to professionals.
Becoming a full-time videographer, content creator, or drone pilot is possible today, but it takes method, vision, and a lot of perseverance. A good camera or expert editing isn't enough: you need to understand how to market yourself, build a portfolio, find clients, manage quotes, and create a strong social media presence.
In today's video, I'll share my complete journey, with all the practical steps to start from scratch and earn more than €2,000 net per month thanks to videos.
We'll discuss mindset, equipment, real skills to develop, collaborations, growth strategies, and above all, how to build your career the right way.
Whether you want to become a freelance videographer, work as a content creator for brands, or simply learn how to break into the world of filmmaking, this video will give you the concrete foundation to do so.
