I am a professional film editor (Empire, Glee, Burn Notice), and I have lived in the trenches for fifteen years. I’ve cut episodic television, studio features, indies, theatrical trailers, EPK’s, documentaries, you name it. I’ve had a lot of different experiences…all of them the same working environments: Long hours, no days off, sitting in one position, mostly sedentary, in a dark room. For years. And it almost destroyed me.
