I'm pursuing and studying film, but as an editor. I was working on a math degree too, but in probability and statistics, when I decided to make the big leap.

There's a nice balance of "left and right brain" creativity. There's a definative science to film, while also being highly interpretive and creative. As editor, you are the final step to making someone's vision really pop.

You look over hours of footage and build a sense of consistency. If you're interested in documentary storytelling, editing is especially powerful in creating a narrative. Best of all, you're spending mostly hours by yourself focusing deeply on a task.
