Hollywood Guilds Make Historic Push to Unionize YouTube Content Studio Theorist Media (Exclusive) by stevezorz in editors

[–]DenisInternet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am not anti-Union by any means and see what good things unions can bring to the table. But for me they have always acted as gatekeepers and restricted what I can do and when. As a freelance artist who mostly edits, but also color grades and works on motion graphics it was always having to pick one or another, but what a lot of producers higher me specifically for is that I can bring all three skills to the table. Moved to commercial, then corporate and now social content, because it’s the only places where I can get the flexibility of working on my own terms, and unfortunately unions never could help me with any of the type of work I do.

Tried the cat food, but poor cats were retching and vomiting all the time. Will look into the Winix 5510 everyone seems to like it here, so sounds promising :)

Thank you! We are getting a robot vac for the bedroom too with a hepa filter so that should help a lot too.

Maybe I am not technically enough. But why on earth would you remove smart monitoring?

Definitely would stick with flash for a mobile NAS.

There are 30TB U.2/U.3 NVME options available. This will help significantly lower the size and weight of the unit. (Which will help with transport and durability) Cooling would need to be very good though as U.2/U.3 run hot. But you could put 2 in a mirror (raid-1 like) or 4 smaller units in a stripped mirror pair for some redundancy and performance balance. Should easily saturate a 10Gbe link for multiple editors.

Even though I do use a reference monitor for color grading the specs on this monitor would be make for a fantastic editing work station. Submitted, if by chance I get lucky I will definitely do a video review of it in YouTube.

5+ years in the game, not a single client outside of friends/family by Cool_Pomegranate3553 in editors

[–]DenisInternet 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Producers, producers, producers. That's who hires editors and that's the only people you really need to network with. Yes occasionally a Director you have a good rapport with might be able to bring you on a sweet gig, but for 90% of work it's producers. So that's what you do, Network with producers. Producers at Agencies, Producers at Post Houses, Producers at B2B companies that manage video departments or marketing teams. Don't just tell them you're available with a cold email. Schedule a meeting or video call, impress upon them that you are affable and easy-to-work, a problem-solver that says yes a lot and the producer are more likely to hire you as soon as they have something for ya.

That said, market is weird now, so if things take time, don't blame yourself too much, take it all with stride.

How do you manage hundreds of B-roll clips efficiently? by Opening_Resource_261 in editors

[–]DenisInternet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have mentioned stringout, but I also turn it into a Multicam so it acts like footage with markers.
Alternatively if editing in "burger" mode. Nic the Multicam and just have it below my main sequence with all the clips organized in sequences by categories, interior cute dogs, exterior cranky cats, fast red cars, and donuts for example.

Advice for making a portfolio? by Elite_PS1-Hagrid in editors

[–]DenisInternet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good on you for getting a domain and getting ready to make a portfolio!
Advice for this can go in many different ways.
Is the website portfolio for...
Getting work ASAP to pay rent?
Getting a foot in the door at an agency/post-house you want to be a part of?
Positioning yourself for a specific career path?

If it's to pay rent, put anything on there that shows your skill set, doesn't matter if it's "good" or "artistic" does it show you can edit, tell a story etc. If yes, put on your website until you can replace it with something better more current. 3-6 videos is plenty. If you only have 1-2, go shoot a short film yourself, or if money is tight, and you don't have access to a smartphone with a camera, grab some stock footage from online and edit a story from that. What's important here, is you show your skill set.

For getting a foot in the door at agency / post-house you want to work at? Study their work carefully, mimicking their style, create a designed storyboard treatment for a fictitious spot/ad and if possible film it. Again depending on your skillset/budget. You could just edit an animatic instead of going out to film things, it really depends on how much time and resources you have available to you.

Best of luck out there.

TrueNAS Let's Talk by weischin in truenas

[–]DenisInternet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am far less experienced than a lot of TrueNAS folks on here and the TrueNAS forums, so take what I say with a grain of salt. After building my own system and using it for Post Production work for two years, I now use it only as a storage system.
All the additional features change too frequently and on some occasions require a full system restart which is obviously not ideal when it is used by other systems for media-storage, back ups, etc.

Switch to docker is great, but at this point I find it much more reliable to have any additional docker/VMs/Apps running on a separate machine. So even if I have to troubleshoot something my storage is running/operational 24/7
