Video editing isn't an easy thing but a creative process that takes plenty of time and creativity.

You must be terribly experienced in outsourcing. Outsourcing rates only reduce by a margin.
You can't go asking 50% of the actual price. No editor who knows his will take it.
Besides, I got the same fucking brain and time as those "Europeans". The work is basically the same.

Okay, and? What's wrong with that?
If you have the skill of understanding motion design, why shouldn't you utilise it?
