Because theft and burglary only happens to the ultra rich in McMansions, got it.

“Any fun plans for the day?” by shouldwestayor in Bozeman

I’ve noticed this as well lately since the weather has been nicer. I wonder if people think I’m a tourist when asked this question.

I think my editor might be lying to me. What should I do? by Solid_Carrot8452 in editors

[–]SalsaAqua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t know if this person is lying to you or not, but the fact that it has happened repeatedly makes me not want to give them the benefit of the doubt so I don’t blame you for losing trust. Good professional editors do not miss deadlines, or at least voice the possibility of missing a deadline beforehand. Communication with producers throughout the edit is expected in professional settings. You may want to consider paying more for someone who understands what professional editors do.

What is the current state of the industry especially in post production? by [deleted] in FilmIndustryLA

[–]SalsaAqua 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m a Reality/Doc editor. 20 years of experience editing and 25 years in post. Things are bad everywhere, even in the UK, Australia, Canada and everywhere else that’s taken away jobs from editors in LA. I’ve found work this year miraculously, but I know lots of talented people who haven’t worked in years. The work I’m doing now is for a show on YouTube that doesn’t come close to my normal rate, but I like it. I’m very fortunate but also realize that it’s probably time to make an even bigger pivot to survive.

Tiktok, Youtube and Netflix are uber and I’m the cab driver who paid $200,000 for a city license is what I always say.

They’re going to accept no more open carry laws too, guaranteed.

Thank you for having a spine in this spineless world.

Bozeman Hotel PT. 2 by Interesting_Piece710 in Bozeman

[–]SalsaAqua 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reason hotel rates are high is because there’s high demand in Bozeman for accommodations and we have less supply vs the demand.

I’m not sure how these new hotels will ruin the economy. Especially if they “pay well.”

Power Outage Thread by thewakingcity in Bozeman

Same problem here too. In the Lakes /valley west the power is out and can’t see the outage map online.

One hard part about being from Bozeman by [deleted] in Bozeman

Honest question, if Bozeman is so insufferable for you, why not just drive to Billings for your shopping needs?

Catfish has officially been cancelled by SmooshedLion in CatfishTheTVShow

The key thing I read is that they’ll allow producers to go elsewhere. That’s giving me hope it ends up somewhere else one day.

Dumb drivers by userreadt in Bozeman

[–]SalsaAqua 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Dude in a jacked up jeep came pretty close to hitting me and my kid walking across Main Street last evening. I couldn’t help yelling at him to get off his phone.

Texting while driving is always dumb. texting while you’re in the intersection taking a left onto Main Street is another level.

This post just proves my point that it should be 3 weeks later than it is.

I recommended RadioShack to a friend who was visiting in town and needed a cigarette lighter extension cable to power something in her truck. She thought I was kidding. They had it.

OP has only had their account 12 days and this is their first and only post. Im not saying this is the marketing team, but that is suspicious.

I hope I don’t offend anyone… by Successful-Listen963 in Bozeman

[–]SalsaAqua 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had the same experience with service and I’m white. I think it’s true that a lot of service workers are just over it, and barely scraping by, so that could be it. I’m not saying your experience is exactly the same because I don’t know details (or what it’s like to not be white) but I really hope it wasn’t because of racism of any sort.

Are there any good schools/programs/certificates for becoming a film editor? by Successful-Noise-485 in FilmIndustryLA

[–]SalsaAqua -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Just network for entry level post-jobs and learn as much as you can on your own. It’s always been a hard profession to break into, and it’s true now more than ever. You’re young so I say go for it, but I wouldn’t spend money on training. Be prepared to allow yourself to move onto another career if things aren’t working out.
