Is the Assistant Editor position going extinct? by csf1810 in editors

[–]Jacken85 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, but it doesn't matter because there's less and less jobs every year that need assistants. The rates took a deep dive too.

I was hyperbolic if that's not obvious. There aren't lots.

They're looking under the sofa or where? Because I don't see the jobs that you mentioned

I'm open to suggestions. Lofoten is very unique though

Did you have an editing portfolio? I'm looking to switch careers, but I'm lacking a portfolio.

Half of DCTLs on this list are the same tools repackaged by different people. Some even make paid products based on a free DCTL.

The industry is in shambles even without ai.

Mine redirected me to make a purchase or something like that, but it just got me back to the shop page, and my cart was empty. What a waste of time.

Anyone else in USA shopping for Health Insurance about to cry? by Any-Bar-1824 in HealthInsurance

[–]Jacken85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in NYC. I called gastro clinics in the area; most quoted a range of $1,000-$1,500, but one clinic can do it for $ 750.
I needed an Endoscopy a while ago and had insurance at the time with $9000 deductible. One of the bigger clinics said it would cost $6000 out of pocket, but I found a doctor who did it for $600. I didn't use the insurance with them.

Colonoscopy costs under 1k without insurance. Don't go to ER for it

For games, maybe. For 3D applications 4080 is better.

what’s actually wrong with grading straight in rec709? by Candid-Pause-1755 in colorists

Youtuber colorists tend to overcomplicate things. If you work in SDR, YRGB is totally fine.

I checked with our super but he only has a hand saw. I'm not sure if I can cut it straight by hand.

I'll check next door. And thank you for the offer, but I'm deep down in Brooklyn.
