Recording the video varies. Depending on what type of video I'm making it could take an hour up to a whole day but as long as you know how to format your videos on to the editor you should take an hour or two to finish it up.

The Average time to shoot, edit and post on YouTube takes me around 6 hours per videos.

I'm filming a short today and right now I have 2 days scheduled of filming. Editing on short films can take 2-3 days if I hustle.

Depending on the length and the amount of editing needed, I would say around 7 - 8 hours to shoot and edit everything.

I know that when I first started posting videos, it used to take me 30-60 minutes to shoot a 4-6 minute video, and then another 1.5-2 hours to edit. Now I feel more comfortable in front of a camera & using Final Cut Pro, so I can shoot a 4 minute video in about 15 minutes, and cut the editing down to about 1 hour (unless there is lots of editing that needs to be done, such as jump-cuts, adding lots of text, adjusting exposure, etc). If there is lots of editing, then it will still take me 1.5-2 hours.
Around 3 hours

For me it takes a shorter amount of time to film then it does to edit. But whenever I work on videos whether it's filming or editing time flies by so quickly. Usually the time frame you have sounds the same as mine.

Editing is the longest part because I want to get it right, but sometimes I don't even edit. Depends on the video.
