    Answered in your cross post in the Art of Edit forum but in a nutshell, you’ll stop hangin out at the jr college and get to work.
    You’ll need to know Avid, FCP and Premiere to marketable as an editor today. If creating your own content, you can pick your fav and it’ll never be an issue.
    Whichever the case, it’s obvious your scholl is not in the business of cranking out editors. Spend that time making the reel that’ll get you the first gig that will lead to the rest of your career.

  • today that could be a cut.
    You can download static imagery if wanting a 70s vibe.

    Andrew, you aducation revolves around you, not a jr college.
    If you want to be an editor today you’ll have to know FCP, Avid and Premiere. If embarking on your own content, you can select your favorite NLE and anhere only to it but to be ,arketable as a editor in the market place, you’ll simply have to be comfy with any room that presents itslef, as a freelancer or a staffer. That’s the easy part though, right? I mean a monkey can l;earn the buttons. You want to market yourself so that folks in hiring positions feel they need you. That comes from confidence and that comes from knowing you have your own look and vibe and people need and want that. Time in the chair will provide that, my friend and nothing else. It may be that the time you are spending in that jr college could better be spent creating the reel that will get you and entry level gig. That gig is what will lead you to the rest of your career.

    Just don’t pirate stuff, man. It’s literally that easy. Offer affordable solutions or coach them how to purchase legal rights to a song that is not required for the piece.

    answered in the business forum.
    As exemplified by your client with “money to burn”, it’s just not worth more than 100 bucks a game for most.
    Double/tripple/ect billing is the only way you’ll get close to a regular half day rate.

    I think selling to other parents is the only way you’ll get closer to a half day rate.
