I can cut a clean sequence now, trim the fat and make it flow. But hand me a project that needs real story shaping, or drop a tangle of color and sound problems on me, and it exposes everything I still can't do. I want to be the editor they trust with the hard stuff, and I'm not there yet.
More people experience this than they realize.
You can cut clean, but story shaping and thorny color and sound expose your limits.
If this sounds familiar, the Library can help you find the bigger picture.
