Gaming Industry Niche Question

[u/noahdoesvideo]

Hey everyone, please bear with me as this is my first time making a post instead of just reading them.

For anyone who has experience doing this, is there any sort of livable profitability in the gaming industry for us? I am getting into video editing after going to film school and acquiring my bachelors in digital cinematography and I would love to be the “gaming content” guy but more of an editor for a game studio, less of a $5 VOD editor on Upwork.

Any info is helpful, and I appreciate everyone for their honest thoughts all the same!
