You are definitely going to need an upgrade. You will need a laptop with a decent processor and graphics card which currently your laptop doesn't have. You will also need more than the 8 GB RAM for video editing as those tasks utilize lots of memory- anything above 12 GB is decent. Go for a Mac? No! The are over priced . You can always get a Windows Laptop for the same price or less than a Macbook that performs far better than the Mac.
