Video 1: "Minecraft Tattoo..." Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.
View attachment 2401641
- The only editing done is cutting between two clips at 0:23, adding one sound effect (surprisingly not out of sync) at 0:20, and changing the music track twice, change occuring at 0:23, fatass could have done this himself. Otherwise there are no significant editing mistakes.
Verdict: Not too awful, but fatass could have done this in 2 minutes, therefore, fat fuck is lazy.
It would've been faster too, unless Firesale receives these in bulk drops of like 20.
Video 2: "Science Lab Partner..." Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.

- Not an editing mistake but I hate the stupid voice Sapnap does starting at 0:10 to the end of the video.
- Also, where's the fucking joke?
- Only one music track in the video, no real editing done.
Verdict: Awful, but not on Firesale's part, but fatass could have done this in 2 minutes, therefore, fat fuck is lazy.
Video 3: "The Greatest Pirate I've Ever Seen..." Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.
View attachment 2401684
- I hate the fucking pirate voices
- The only editing is once again, a single music track and cutting to another perspective at 0:22. I am still betting Dream is overpaying.
Verdict: Awful, but not on Firesale's part, but fatass could have done this in 2 minutes, therefore, fat fuck is lazy. Are you starting to notice a pattern?
Video 4: "Are You Smarter Than A Sapnap?" Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.
View attachment 2401695
- Woah! A new editing trick! Firesale learned how to fucking make the video zoom! Surprisingly didn't fuck this one up.
- Then again, it's extremely overused, the video practically zooms and/or pans after every single cut, it's making me a bit motion sick.
- I wish Firesale would quiet down Dream's gaggle yelling so much instead of focusing on the zooming, it's making my ears bleed. 1:15 actually gave me a fucking headache.
- 1:21, we see our first zoom
out. Wow. So much effort being put into this editing, clearly firesale is being underpaid.
- 1:38 also made my head hurt. I should not have my head be hurting because firesale can't lower Sapnap's fucking audio levels.
Verdict: This video is fucking horrendous cancer and I hate Sapnap. Firesale has demonstrated a bit more editing here, but is putting his already minimal effort into repetetive effects that give motion sickness instead of the places that need it (lowering Sapnap's volume).
Video 5: "BaldBoyHalo" Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.
View attachment 2401729
- Practically no editing at the start.
- This video is actually part of Firesale's editing reel, which means I am going to be particularly harsh on it.
- At 0:21 the video starts rotating, Firesale surprisingly did not fuck this up, but it abruptly cuts to a different rotate
and zoom out at 0:31, which really disoriented me. Normally this wouldn't be too bad (besides the fact that it disoriented me a bit), but Firesale seems to have a habit of overusing simple affects in an attempt to appear to Dream like he's actually doing something, when in reality something like this takes 2 seconds to do.
- 0:34 and beyond is fucking cancer, would it have killed Firesale to fucking lower these guy's audio? At least when other youtubers do "scream = funny hahaha" they have the decency to lower it a bit.
Verdict: This video is fucking horrendous cancer, just like the smarter than a Sapnap one. Firesale's overuse of effects is disorienting and already made me nauseous with the smarter than a Sapnap video, and Dream and Bad's yelling didn't particularly help either.
Video 6: "Tubbo is UNHINGED" Uploaded by: Sneegsnag.
Finally, a longer video to dig into.
View attachment 2401783
- I actually have no qualms with the beginning twitch plug, it's short, simple, didn't blow my ears out, didn't make me motion sick, or anything like that. But it's not particularly impressive either, you have to remember that Firesale keeps boasting about his "8 years of experience" after all. An editor with a week of experience, maybe less could pull that off just as well.
- That transition is part of his streaming setup I presume, since it was tied to him switching screens, don't be fooled into thinking Firesale put more work into this than he did.
- What is with the watermark? Is that part of his stream setup or did Firesale put that in? This isn't a point against the content itself besides that it's stupid. Why does his gameplay need a watermark? He's already got his facecam, twitch chat, and you can see his minecraft character's hand.
- Can whoever keeps going "MEEHHHH!" shut the fuck up?
- The outro is just a fade in with music.
- All of the editing that stuck out to me besides the previously mentioned is just hyperactive cuts, as if Firesale (Or Sneeg if he mandated that) thinks the viewer has the attention span of a goldfish. If I missed anything it was because I was bored out of my mind.
Verdict: Boring, minimal editing. Where the hell is that 8 years of experience? The video just consists of Sneeg doing shit in the nether while people more entertaining than him talk to him.
Video 7: "World Record Weight Lifting" Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.
View attachment 2401872
- Firesale overuses the zoom in and zoom out again.
- The only other editing is inserting a sound effect.
Verdict: Very little editing, but made in an attempt to look like he's doing more than he is. 8 years of experience my fucking ass.
Video 8: "Wilbur Soot Hits A Spectral Nae Nae" Uploaded by: Sneegsnag.
View attachment 2401919
- Oh shit, another editing reel video!
- As I said before about this part (0:00) in the editing reel, the only real editing here is adding undertale sound effects that surprisingly
aren't out of sync like the burger in the editing reel was.
- Okay, so the twitch plug is here too (0:51), which means it probably was given to Firesale to put in every video, meaning he probably didn't even create it, there goes that one compliment out of the window.
- Once again very minimal editing, what about this was so impressive as to put in his editing reel?
Verdict: How many times can I repeat "minimal editing" without coming off as uninspired as Firesale.
... Then again maybe that's all he deserves.

- Same shill segment as last time.
- Same twitch shill as last time as well.
- Once again...... Uh.... Minor adapting.
Verdict: Um... Where are those 8 years of experience?
Video 10: "Dream Let Down Your Hair..." Uploaded by: Dream Shorts
View attachment 2402070
- The hit sounds at 0:27 and 0: are
very slightly off sync from when Dream places the water. Otherwise this video has literally no editing.
Verdict: I literally have nothing to say about this video, besides that I still hate Dream Shorts.
Intermission:
Okay, so we're ten videos through, and all we've seen is extremely minimal editing from Firesale, so far I see no reason as to why he should be paid more, and in fact I argue he should be paid literal cents for this shit. Maybe a dollar or two if we're generous, becuase Dream and Sneeg could've edited these themselves and it would've probably had
more editing.
For all Firesale whines about being "underpaid" for his supposed 8 years of experience, he isn't doing very much to show off his eight years of experience. Again, Dream, if you're reading this, I recommend either learning to edit these yourself (it's not that hard what Firesale is doing), or hiring an assistant that does more than editing so at least you're paying for more than basic bitch week in premiere editing.
to be continued next edit.
BONUS VIDEO (For now, this is the 13th video in the list) : "PARKOUR!" Uploaded by: Dream Shorts.
View attachment 2402037
So why did I add this as a bonus video? The editing is rather mediocre after all.
Simple, I noticed Firesale took an effect that the creator wanted to be credited when used. Personally I don't give much of a shit about this, but considering how much Dream hammers on and on about how he loves giving credit, this is very funny.
So in the video, you'll notice the shit like "Good!" "Great!" etc. right? Well these are actually taken from a video that recreated these effects from the "Mario and Luigi" games by Nintendo.
