These are award-winning trailer editors who have honed their skills and risen to the top of their field.

Awards include:

• 3 Grand Key Art Awards
• 31 Gold/Silver/Bronze Key Art Awards

• How does The Art of Trailer Editing compare to other training options?
• We’ve already seen how The Art of Trailer Editinghas helped many other editors improve their skills. What would it cost for you to learn these techniques someplace else?
• We like to be candid with all your choices, so you’re fully informed.
• OPTION 1: FILM SCHOOL
• You could try learning how to edit a trailer by enrolling in a full-time film school and hope that the curriculum includes plenty of trailer editing training…but most don’t.
• FACT: only about 8% of film school classes teach any form of editing
• Plus, film school is pretty darn expensive.
• Most film schools are not designed to train editors.
• You might be lucky to get 2 or 3 classes dedicated to editing, along with a bit of outside lab time cutting together a final project.
• But their focus is not on really teaching the craft of editing. It can’t be – there just isn’t enough time!
• OPTION 2: TRADE SCHOOL
• You couldtake individual editing classes at a trade school.
• But these are still pretty pricey.
• Additionally, they’ll typically only cover the fundamentals and often the instructors don’t have a great deal of real-world industry experience.

So far, none of these are great options.
