Music Videos: edit to the beat or lyrics

[Rich Rubasch]

I started actually drumming at 42. Been “playing” a long long time. I edit and build animations. My co-worker is also a drummer and an editor and motion graphics guy. Works out great. Our rythms are different, but we both do commendable work. I personally thing being any kind of musician can help the art of editing. Or at least be able to follow your own drummer!

I am, and my guess is that at least 75% of the “technical” folks I work with in the office play at least one musical instrument. There’s at least four people in my small group who have been paid to play drums at some point in their career… and there’s at least one who has been paid to STOP playing drums. ;-0

All you editors out there… even if you don’t play drums live, I’ll bet you’d be better than most at programming a drum machine and making it sound like a good drummer.
