Which market do you live in?

Realistically, that’s a tough spot to be in. Unless you can string together freelance remote work from your network in major markets, or relocate to a major market, I’m not sure if I have a good answer. Occasionally I see remote editing positions on LinkedIn but based on your experience those would probably be below your pay grade, because they’re usually garbage jobs only suitable for recent college grads. The decent staff jobs in major markets will all require some degree of on site availability. Best of luck though, hoping this year is better for all the editors out there.

you are absolutely correct and unfortunately I am not in a position to relocate.

My background is in basically everything. I’ve done broadcast to surgical training videos and pretty much everything in between.

I have been searching for a travel card for months. I am a young guy who is looking to take advantage of credit and earn points at the same time. Cap One just released an interesting new premium travel card with a lot of seemingly good perks (Venture X). I also looked at the CSP and the Southwest Priority card. My girlfriends family has Southwest and swear by it, with companion pass being the differentiator. I am in the DMV area and have mostly flown Jet Blue or Southwest. Any thoughts on this?

How much does a post house typically charge an advertising client for editing in NYC? Whether that’s hourly, daily, etc.

Roll call. How much experience? Do you staff in a boutique? An agency? Freelance? If freelance, do you usually work in agency studios, prodcos...? Do you bring on a post producer to help on big jobs?
