Articulate Your Work

Clients love to employ editors who can articulate their editorial process. Being able to clearly define the intention of a sequence, discuss the tonality in depth and weigh up the different potential paths is an incredibly sought after skill.

Better Client Skills

Understanding the power balance and psychology in the cutting room is important for a successful career in editing. We teach you how to build the perfect creative relationship with your producers and directors.

If you're also a videographer or self shooter your footage will improve dramatically. You will see your shooting ratios go down and the quality of your coverage go up once you truly understand what is needed in the edit suite.
