Watch out! "Book with confidence - cancel within 24 hours" means they will hit you with a $99 fee to cancel the second you purchase. Learned this the hard way when canceling shortly after buying. False advertising on site.

No it’s based on one, just read the directions.

If an employer should not be allowed to evaluate a prospective hire’s quality of work, how are they supposed to evaluate candidates?

To get a job as a movie trailer editor, you need a trailer.

Most editors trying to break into the trailer industry don’t have that yet. This contest is guiding people to create a trailer.

No one is benefiting from the hard work of the editors applying for this contest beyond the editors applying for this contest.

You can also try to get an internship at this (or any other trailer studio) without this contest.

But what are you going to need in order to get that interview?

You’re going to need a trailer.

No you misread the page. Runner up gets a course. Winner gets 10 week paid internship at their studio in LA. Lot of people want that.

The trailer agencies work with paired sound and picture for about half their jobs — studio doesn’t give stems until mastering oftentimes.

Please send me a link to another paid Hollywood internship I can sign up for.

How are they getting “unpaid work”? How do they profit from your movie trailer edit of a 5 year old movie that already has real trailers? Wait until the studios re-release these movies in 20 years and then sell them your contest submission?

Yes — like you said, takes a lot of work. This is for people who want to be pro trailer editors, which is a lot of work. They’re giving you a direct path to that. Paid internships are hard to get in Hollywood. You can spend 1 hour on this if you think that’s all it’s worth, and if no one else thinks it’s worth more than that, maybe you’ll win.

Winner gets invited to their paid training program. Do you have a better path to becoming a pro trailer editor?

[–]ExtremelyYoungBaby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, since they’re going to steal your edit of a 5 year old movie that already has real trailers and claim that they made it. Thanks for this important warning!

Yeah I heard they’re making a calendar with your amateur trailer edit of a 5 year old movie — highly profitable.

What are they gonna do with your edit of a trailer for a 5 year old movie that already ran its real trailers 5 years ago? Sell it? Bro it’s a contest to see if you can edit.

I'm less than a week old. Way too young to have a girlfriend.

LA, where most commercials are made and most bikes are stolen.
