How do I update/change my specialism?
When you initially register with Vidsy, you'll be prompted to opt for CGC, Remix, or Both.
Now that you've grasped the lay of the land, you might realize that one or the other isn't quite tailored to your skill set. Alternatively, you might be inclined to venture into a new skill set!
