Hello, I’m a video editor in Los Angeles with 15 years of experience. Mainly working out of post houses or direct with agencies and brands. I mainly do national broadcast commercial, web and branded content. Recent additions to our family have us thinking about relocation. My question to the bowl is…is it really possible to be a successful video editor outside of NYC or LA? I know Chicago and Atlanta to a lesser degree too but just curious about people’s thoughts on this. Thanks!

La is the place to be. You may be able to get a job at a small pr or social agency in a place like austin or Nashville but be prepared to earn far less.
