Proper OT Coming Soon.
So a few of us got caught up during the Vegas Pro Edit sale through Humble Bundle and realized there's a bunch of us here on Era that do a lot of video editing work. Some of us are professionals, others are hobbyists. This is meant to be a space to talk about the technical and artistic side of EDITING. I bring this up because there's already a solid community for filmmaking over Here set up by ShadowKingpin, and I don't want this to compete with it. Moreover, Video Editing isn't limited to traditional narrative or commercial video work anymore. Broadcast-style work, Let's Plays, Vlogs, and other various types of non-traditional video content still needs to be edited, and they have their own unique workflows that don't necessarily fit in a traditional filmmaking thread. That, and we can all learn a lot from each other as editors working in different fields!
Having a technical issue? This is the place for that. Wanting some advice on your cut? We can do that too. Running into issues with your NLE? We can try to help troubleshoot that. Not sure that you're using the best tool for the job? Someone here can probably suggest a better option for you. Looking for an editor for a project? Here's a pool to draw from!
For my personal background, I've been editing since around 2006 and have used just about every major professional solution at this point. Most of what I do is traditional narrative stuff, but I've dabbled more than a bit into broadcast and Let's Play content. I've done some freelance editing in the past, but am currently working in the Animation industry as a Technical Artist/Software Engineer. I don't edit quite as often as I used to, but it's where I got my start and I will always love the craft. Looking forward to learning from and with you guys!
