Title: Oh my gosh! TV station going to pay me to edit!!!
Post by: Himu on February 04, 2010, 10:46:48 AM: Holy crap!!!!!

I've done work at a local tv station before for school. They showed us the ropes, how to film, and we edited the content down. They're a pretty nice place, and they happened upon a project where they want local student participation. Now, due to my experience there they've contacted me with a job.

They want me to edit down footage for a 59 minute show and I'll get paid for the job.

I'm excited!

And scared! But mostly excited! They said they'll my name in the credits.

Post by: duckman2000 on February 04, 2010, 11:20:04 AM: I used to love editing. Then I found post fx and motion graphics, which was even better. And then I got involved with production, and now I hate it all.

Post by: The Fake Shemp on February 04, 2010, 11:25:00 AM: I did editing for a brief moment in time for CBS radio, and it was kind of neat. Not my bag, because of the industry involved - but I hope you enjoy it.

I befriended a producer for the sports programming, and he allowed me to come in to intern. It was short-lived. I didn't like the politics of radio, I was constantly berated, etc.

It's really fun. It's like solving a puzzle.

Post by: Himu on February 09, 2010, 01:15:15 PM: I can't do that. :(

What's funny is that despite this is nothing but a bunch of boring old people talk it's fun to edit. Editing out fuck ups is great.

My mac can't handle all of this data, though. :(

Post by: Mupepe on February 09, 2010, 01:22:48 PM: Should have gotten a PC
Title: Re: Oh my gosh! TV station going to pay me to edit!!!
Post by: Himu on February 09, 2010, 01:32:42 PM: I have both a mac and a pc. The mac was gotten specifically for this type of work.

If I could use Final Cut Pro on a pc, I wouldn't have a mac.
