    Editing is not the most important thing in a movie…it IS the movie.

    You need to take classes like drama (in the English department) and acting (in the theatre department).

    That means you really need to know how to tell a story. What is a dramatic beat? What is story structure?

    First you need to define terms.
    Edits v. Roughs v. Assembles v. Revisions and Approvals

    not a lawyer: Client agrees that contractor will make 3 Assemble Edits for the purpose of Approvals and Revision. At client’s request and direction, contractor will Edit 1 Final Cut. Additional versions at client’s request and direction will incur additional fees.

    [walter biscardi] “[Bill Davis] “So be VERY cautious before you waste money going from digital to tape – only to force the broadcaster immediately transcode it from tape to digital in order to air it.”

    I don’t thing there are any networks left that broadcast from tape. They ingest the tape and then file the tape away in a library. But they are still requesting HDCAM tape from us.”

    A good friend of mine just got a job doing that, in San Jose, CA. No kidding, from 8 PM to 4 AM he puts HDCAM tapes into a deck and then onto a server, which then sends to where they need to go, before the broadcast day begins.
