As far as I can tell, I have all of the dependencies installed (it compiled with no issues).
You can compile with no issues python projects , but later get error for missing python modules
You can have webkit for python2 but not for python3 ... or webkit or whatever ... your log says openshot goes for python3 , then probably you need some python3 module like the python3-PyQt5.
One easy way to see what are you loosing ..is usage of pip3 check.

I already have that installed.
And I think that 'pip3 check only works that way if I have openshot actually running.

I have been trying to run Openshot (from terminal mode) and this is the output that I get:

How do I go about resolving that situation?
You have python3.7. Does that mean you're on 14.2? If so, you may be trying to use the wrong openshot SlackBuild - you would need the one in SBo's 14.2 branch. The master branch currently contains updates (including for openshot) for using with upcoming Slackware 15; therefore dependencies are quite different.
If using git,
git checkout 14.2
or for master,
git checkout master
I see that the SBo website itself is still pointing to 14.2 by default and master doesn't seem accessible from there. If you're on 14.2 then the SlackBuild visible at the website is the correct on. However on rebuilding openshot on 14.2 along with all the deps, I see that something has changed recently such that qt5-webkit and one of it's deps, hyphen, aren't being pulled in any more. Therefore the direct dependencies for 14.2 are really:
qt5-webkit python3-PyQt5 python3-pyzmq libopenshot python-chardet httplib2 jack python-certifi python-requests
As a short term measure, I think you could just build & install hyphen and qt5-webkit and your existing installed openshot should run properly.
something has changed recently such that qt5-webkit, and one of it's deps, hyphen, aren't being pulled in any more.
Looking into this more closely, qt5-webkit was sometime removed as a dependency of python3-PyQt5. Therefore it and its dependency hyphen are no longer pulled in as expected. Since the 14.2 repo is now effectively frozen I'm not sure how this can be corrected.
Anyone else finding this thread with the same problem should just add qt5-webkit to the openshot.info REQUIRES line and recalculate the dependencies (so that hyphen will be included).
You installed hyphen (dep of python3-PyQt5) too, did you? If so, then looking at the last line of your error, ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyQt5.QtWebKitWidgets', my guess is that qt5-webkit was not installed when python3-PyQt5 was built. Can you check whether your python3-PyQt5 package contains the file /usr/lib64/python3.7/site-packages/PyQt5/QtWebKitWidgets.so? If not, then I think you should rebuild python3-PyQt5 with qt5-webkit already installed so that the PyQt5.QtWebKitWidgets module will be built. Unfortunately, since qt5-webkit has been removed as strict dependency of python3-PyQt5, this is no longer the default situation
If that works for you (enables openshot to run) then it leaves the SlackBuild for PyQt5 in a bad way. While it may be that python3-PyQt5 can be built without qt5-webkit (so removing it as a requirement is not strictly wrong) it means the resulting python3-PyQt5 package is lacking features (in particular PyQt5.QtWebKitWidgets module) than are required by other SlackBuilds (in particular openshot).
