Hi Editors!
What did your transition from AE to editor look like?

5 months ago I joined an advertising post house as a full-time AE. Through the support of a lead editor at the company I found my way into making cuts for the company’s most prestigious client. At this point, I’ve been the sole editor of one global campaign and a co-editor of another, in addition to cutting many social media videos. It’s only 5 months but I can’t help feel that my title doesn’t reflect the work I actually do.

Hey everyone - any freelance editors or editors/director/makers who live in (or work in) the Atlanta market?

What’s everyone working on these days? Anything fun?

I’m so glad this bowl finally exists.

Website question: is it bad to have a few spots that are over five years old? I keep them down at the bottom and the majority are much newer so they sort of serve as a ‘best of’ my older work.

Does anyone know a good website where I can search for movie clips based on categories “man mowing lawn” etc.
