I Spent Four Years Editing Non-Stop—And Couldn't Land A Gig

Four years in, I was tired, burnt out and wanting to quit. My plan wasn’t working.

Even though I had been obsessed with editing for years, I was struggling to get past beginner-level skills.

The only tutorials I could find were focused on the technical side of editing, and I didn’t know how to bridge the gap between operating the software and creating edits that grabbed attention, built tension, or made an audience feel something.

Without guidance, I was stuck experimenting on my own, unsure if anything I was doing would make my videos stand out.

So I did something that scared me—I asked a real pro editor for help.

That decision changed everything. My new mentor kindly showed me how professional editors really worked.

He taught me to focus on emotion and story, not software.

He let me see behind the scenes of his real projects, and for the first time, I had a clear workflow to follow.

Through his expert guidance and feedback I finally understood how to use editing to tell impactful stories, and it was this that totally changed my career for the better.

I quickly learned how to use my edits to evoke emotion—achieving in weeks what had taken me four years to even attempt.

Within months, I edited a short film that played in festivals.

Soon after that, I landed my first paid editing job—the start of my 20+ year career.

Here’s what I know now: if you’re putting in the work but not making progress, it’s not because you’re not talented.

It’s because the craft of editing is far more than technical skills, and you just need guidance on how to consistently incorporate emotion and story into your edits.

With real projects to edit, a repeatable pro process, and feedback from someone who’s been there, you can unlock your full potential—just like I did.

That’s why I built this program.

And my students are having the same breakthroughs that I did.

They're creating amazing edits that they're proud of.

They're using a proven professional process on all of their projects.

And they're booking higher-paying, more creatively fulfilling editing jobs.
