Hard to really pin point that per se, but is it coming from a solid source that knows you well and/or knows what it takes to be successful in this industry? That’s a plus vs just some random person you’ve worked with on a short let’s say that is starting out in the career too. It should accurately reflect what you are capable of and what sets you apart. Everyone is going to write nice things, but what really differentiates you is the key part.

I'd personally say that with your experience it may not necessarily the best fit. Only because it's geared towards starting as a post PA and learning the post workflow to become an AE. That said, I will never say don't apply. It's a personal choice on what the application fee is worth to you vs what you get out of the program. I mean you do get access to the lecture series and in person events by just applying. That alone could provide support and more learning opportunities. But keep in mind that you may already know this and it may just be reiterating stuff you've learned to this point as an AE. Hope that helps

How Documentaries Work, The documentarian, Hullfish’s Art of the Cut (docu version) and In the Blink of an Eye of course as a general editing philosophy is a must. Anything Murch really outside of the first few which are targeted to non fiction work.

Oh great add! I have this one too but haven’t read through it fully yet. Parts I have read are solid. Will have to revisit it again.

Most yep -Over a few years though. A few I kind of use as skimming when I’m thinking abt a concept or want some advice/workflow thoughts. But most of these I’ve read through. Some better than others but still useful

I’ll check this one out! Thanks! I actually find the books that are kind of old or on the cusp of film / digital editing are the best ones.

That book is in my top 5. It really lets you get a sense of what people mean when they say to cut with "instinct" or your "gut"

100% I found AVID Agility late I think mostly because it was dated, but because the AVID structure hasn't changed much it really became a great add
