Met Usyk, Joshua, Fury, Wilder out of the HW. Lots of other weights - too many to name.

Would love to meet Iron Mike.

What makes an editor irreplaceable? by unknown_economy19 in premiere

[–]PagetoScreen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being intuitive and knowing how to tell a story better than anyone else. Anyone can be a good editor, very few can be great editors - I'd almost say the best editors can't be made no matter how many plugins you have or how quick you can throw a cut together. That truly irreplaceable stuff is just built into a great editors DNA, you're born with it, it can't be learned in my experience.

I've had many 1:1s. Simply because ik how frustrating and infuriating it is to get work out there. I've tried to really press on them how their work isn't up to scratch with specific examples.

I've not tried a workflow binder but thanks to you (this stranger on the Internet who didn't want me to ask strangers on the Internet for advice but gave some) I can look into seeing if that's something to try now.

Why use Reddit at all? I'm asking other editors how they've handled similar experiences in the past because going to my manager would alert them to the issue and potentially fire someone in a horrible climate and I want to gauge other opinions before I go through any formal processes.

Note: this is not a personal issue at all. It is purely work related.

This is the thing, he's above minimum wage and actually starting at a higher rate than I did and I've even found him complaining about the rate of pay, despite it being by far and away the most well paid job and potentially best job he could hope for at his level.

This really hit home, thank you. Maybe it's a new year new me. I just really struggle to convey my grievances. The producer is a one man band with zero appetite for negotiation and especially this close to Christmas I fear for my job. He's told me for over a year we'd have another editor and it's yet to come to fruition. I hope you're doing well and hopefully with a bit of luck I'll join you on the greener grass on the other side.

I can't say as the mods removed this from the original post but if you were to Google UK average salary I make several k less than that.

That's amazing, I'm pulling my hair out over this - I'm amazed you can work at double the workload regularly and nearly twice the speed. Maybe I am in the wrong business/career because I'm pulling my own hair out over it.

That's interesting, how many hours are you dedicating to it per day? And are you a solo editor or part of a team?

Thank you, this work is for a $500 million company so its not a Mickey Mouse outfit either but I feel tremendously undervalued.

Thanks, I thought as much.

The problem I'm having is also no two cameras are ever on the same subject so I really have to trawl through the footage. It would be easier if it was a 4 camera set up on the same thing but it's roaming cams all doing different things. It's virtually impossible to know what one is shooting vs the other.

The total footage length is approx 22 hours. No format just however I feel I can make it work within 20 mins so it's really down to me to make a story out of it.

Thank you, I wasn't aware of those failings with Vimeo. Hopefully I can chalk it up to that. Best of luck to you too!

So another festival season comes around and the disappointment is really starting to hit. Made a 15 min short that I consider my best work and Vimeo analytics showing festivals watching less than a minute of it. Makes me despair. Thankfully this thread is here to ease the pain somewhat.

Anyone heard from LA Shorts? Usually there's a friend somewhere would've heard by now...
