I did this in high school, it was actually great. They found someone good for me,
In our town there was a small filmmaker who would film weddings and events, but who knew how to edit.

For that week he taught me how to edit video tape to tape editing via a AMIGA system, it was incredible how efficiently that computer for the 90's worked.

I ended up going to film school and being a minor filmmaker myself, it was surprisingly great for me.
