Business italian
I usually try and ask my question in italian, but I won't attempt with this one because I never learned business Italian. I'd like to know how to say the following phrases in Italian:
1. I am the owner of my own company.
2. I work as a video editor.
3. I own my own company selling video effects to other editors.
Any variations are welcome as well.
Grazie mille!

1. Sono il proprietario della mia azienda.
2. Lavoro come video editor. (we use the English word sometimes) or
Lavoro come editore di video (but the first one is better).
3. Possiedo una azienda che vende effetti video ad altri editori. (that would be the translation) or
La mia azienda vende effetti video ad altri editori. (in italian you don't need to say ''I own'' again because if you say ''my own company'' they already know that this is yours!)

1) IO SONO IL POSSESSORE DELLA MIA AZIENDA
Sometimes, the Italian subject can be omit in the sentence
So the first sentence can also be: SONO IL POSSESSORE DELLA MIA AZIENDA
By omitting "IO" [ I ]
2) IO LAVORO COME EDITORE DI VIDEO
You can omit the subject "IO" here, too
Editore di video means Video Editor, but we sometimes use English words in our dictionary
3) LA MIA AZIENDA VENDE EFFETTI VIDEO AD ALTRI EDITORI
POSSEGGO UN'AZIENDA CHE VENDE EFFETTI VIDEO AD ALTRI EDITORI
They both are correct translations but means different thing
The first sentence I've translated means:
MY COMPANY SELLS VIDEO EFFECTS TO OTHER EDITORS
The second one means:
I OWN A COMPANY WHICH SELLS VIDEO EFFECTS TO OTHER EDITORS

"Il libero professionista è un lavoratore che svolge un'attività economica, a favore di terzi, volta alla prestazione di servizi mediante lavoro intellettuale. L'attività svolta da tale soggetto è detta libera professione"
https://it.wikipedia.org/wiki/Libero_professionista
If you see yourself as closer to this than an entrepreneur (imprenditore, see Wikipedia for that), then that might be your preferred work title.
