What Gets You Hired as a FILM & VIDEO EDITOR

Connections is what gets you hired. It’s 99% connections and 1% talent.

Still offering class?

And that still didnt tell me how 2 cut and paste a movie together

still come back to this video year after year, thank you so much sven!

1. Forge the relationship with the director/producer and make them feel comfortable; 2. Work on stuff that people are fans of previous films, stuff that is exciting, intriguing and promising; 3. Promise a good experience to people you are working with, stuff like showing up on time and being excited about their own work, be a positive force; 4. Brand yourself as an editor; 5. Be able to tell the story through the edit

Nice....

I am a pa and realize I want to be an editor but the course is a little expensive for me at this time.

You are amazing and true inspiration!

I just realized I spent 20 minutes watching an ad

Seems like clickbait to me. I already know all of this stuff - went to college for it and have a degree, yet no one wants to hire me. If they do decide, then it's for a contract worker that pays minimum wage. Ridiculous. All the things I see today done by "professionals" who can't even match cut, and have continuity errors. I'll make my breakthrough eventually!

I’m a bit late to this video but I just wanted to say I appreciate the usage of the song on the beach from HER.

can you please tell me which laptop is best for editing staff ?

First, I appreciate the amount of time and knowledge that you give through your channel. Second , 8 noticed the poster in the background for “Better Luck Tomorrow”. I throughly enjoyed that film and their story behind making it. I would love to get your take on their editing breakdown as you have done for other films.

I’m 15 wow 😳

How come did three editors find free time to be in the same place and time together?

Is the MacBook Pro 16 good as a daily driver for a editor?

I'm a beginner editor in india, worked in 3 movies as assistant editor. i want to join a best editor in Hollywood. please inform me how can i contact with any editor.

Sir I have 2 year tv channel experience, I make documentary video, short movie songs edited

Thank you so much

So, who has tried the Go To Editor course? Is it worth the money? Is it any good? What are your experiences with it?

Amazing video !!

Took me 20 minutes to figure out that this was an ad...

I started making videos with toy figures three years ago, now I still do this. I love editing. I recently got Sony Vegas and as I’m kinda close to the moment when I have to decide what I’d to for life I thought why don’t become film editor. I have a lot to learn but loads of hope and motivation.

Wow, i wish i could afford that. your stuff is really really good. I'll start saving up.

AHHHHHHHH I MISSED IT

Because my company is so small so beside working as an editor, I have to be an photographer, 2d motion desinger, animator. And my monthly salary is about 600$, half of your daily salary. Should i quit my job ? T.T

How much does this course cost? I couldn't find the fee on the website.

Is there any chance of learning film editing on one whole feature film raw footage?

There is an Film editing course being taught 6 hours a day for 25 days by 3 film editors on real film footage. The price is 30 k Indian Rupees. Can anyone suggest shall I take that course or This guy edit course. I apologize in advance. It's my real and genuine doubt. What is the difference in learning film editing form any Institute which lasts for years and online course which completes in couple of hours

for someone who knows nothing besides cutting clips together, could they start with your program and learn?

I have been trying to find an answer about Resolve: They have all of the editing capabilities they have been incorporating and there are lots of tutorials. However, all of the tutorials about editing are "from colorists" which makes me wonder: do any real professional expert editors use resolve for editing? I'd love to see a tutorial series about editing in resolve from an expert editor, not a color grading professional. Hollywood and most professionals still use Avid right?

我是来自中国的剪辑，非常喜欢你做的节目。谢谢。

I FULLY intend to enroll into the course and learn from you😀. Unfortunately it says it's currently closed. However I definitely want to get in. Any info you can share about this?

Dude i LOVE your channel

Thank you....

Would love to join your course, when it opens again!

So it’s been six months. I want to get in on round 2!

Will we ever be able to purchase the course again?

Hi, Sven


Will the course re-open ?

I never have and never will edit footage in my life. But I specifically look for film editor because I want to learn your mentality when it comes to story-telling.

This dudes name the same as pewdiepie dog in Minecraft 😂

A grateful victim trying to teach us what art is...

my dream is to be an editor so many nights i couldnt sleep

I wish I saw this a few months earlier

Do you have to live in LA or NYC to edit for these types for these types of projects?
