    Unfortunately most movie trailers today absolutely suck! They’re simply a barrage and a collage of noise and meaningless images. Trailers used to give you a hint at the emotion and the story. It’s really unfortunate because they used to be a really great art form. Look at the movie trailer to “the shining“… True classic. Now its Noise explosions and a dozen cuts per second.… And you think that makes a trailer? So sad.

    @Trainrobber Hi, I'm Kunal from Mumbai, India. I'm very interested in learning trailer editing and really enjoyed the intro to your course. I have one question before purchasing: After completing the course and assignments, will I have the opportunity to apply to the studios/agencies you've mentioned, or is this restricted by geography? Please let me know as this will help me decide. Thanks!

    Trailer editing seems like such a painful industry to get into. Didn't know in Hollywood studios go to multiple trailerhouses at the same time. You get paid sure, but if you get eliminated it doesn't really move your business forward because you can't really put that on your company resume.

    • @Trainrobber
      @Trainrobber 2 місяці тому

      The individual editors often do still include these cuts in their reels/portfolios (and, I'm sure, have fun working on them -- even when they're not selected) -- so it's not a waste of effort!

    Is there an explanation why studios spoil movie endings? Or basically every single important scene of the film?

    • @Trainrobber
      @Trainrobber 2 місяці тому

      This usually happens at the hands of less experienced studio execs with mandates from above - but part of a trailer team's job is presenting compelling reasons why plot points should be kept secret (i.e. edits so strong that they don't need to give away too much).

    • @Trainrobber
      @Trainrobber Рік тому

      This comment resonates deeply with me, as someone who dropped out of Columbia's film MFA program after 1 semester because of the cost. It took me years to pay off the debt I accrued in those 4 months. Many of the filmmakers I interview for this channel never attended film school. At the end of the day, school or no school, the only thing that matters is your determination to succeed.

    • @BorselinoThadchack

      Dudde I love your channel and I can tell you I am a working editor in TV and docs, but I could never get in0 scripted as nobody cared. Even back in the days in NY during the INDIE wave. I guess i was no lucky enough . But I also had to compete with these guys from NYU or USC because IT IS an elitist business. You have to have the right pedigree. But I struggled as a freelancer and STILL struggle today, even in the TV part (strike has left me unemployed for now 6 months) but I LOVE LOVE LOVE what you do with this channel. I REALLY hope you make more money with youtube than editing. Zack Arnold, for example, was a trailer editor who got sick and tired of the back and forth that happens in trailers. ( example Avengers trailer went back and forth 134 times) . He went to TV, where the pressure is high , as deadlines do not move. By the same token you need to know the story once you hit the ground. But it's a damn hard business BECAUSE they do look down on you, Also, now-a-days, the incompetence at the top is astonishing. I once ask a director what is his vision. He couldn't tell me. : Just cut something I ll see if I like it and give you notes:. It's not the business it once was! I hope you are successful@@Trainrobber

    One thing that becomes obvious is after watching a trailer and then watching the movie, you can tell that the trailer was made from either dailies or an early cut because some scenes in the trailer were not in the final movie. Unfortunately if that scene was what caught someone’s interest, they can feel let down with the movie.
