When I make my video lectures for my class it takes about two hours for every one hour of video. That includes writing a transcript, edits, re-recording parts, posting, and even the encoding. Obviously this will vary per person but I’m not very good at videos and that’s how long it takes. I don’t get paid for videos it’s just part of my course. If I was a professional video maker, I think it would take me much less time. But if someone is really slow at a task, perhaps it’s not economical for them to do that task. I’m an amazing car washer. I wash a car like no other. But I take three hours and no one will pay my hourly rate. That doesn’t mean that my employer who pays me by the wash is bad, it means I shouldn’t wash cars for them.
