Reviews of experts about the work of the video editor Renat Mansurov, the host of the YouTube channel “Photo-Mediaclub”, director of musical and commercial films and videos:-Is it difficult to enter the profession from scratch? I will say this: the profession of a video editor is not just to cut and make up videos. It is necessary to learn how to build a symphony from raw material, which will meet the most set tasks, cause people to experience and involvement in what is happening on the screen.

The threshold of entering the profession for beginners is low. You can start with a simple one and in a few years to learn how to do something at a decent level. The most important thing is to constantly grow: I have learned to work with the installation program, in parallel, you learn the theory, how to do this or that in other programs of mowing design or audio editors. Over time, a certain baggage of knowledge accumulates, and the video editor grows as a specialist, takes more and more complex projects to work.

Valeria Elenskaya, director and video editor: - As in any profession, hard work and zeal are important here. You need to be prepared at first to work a lot and hard, spend 8 hours at the computer and be quite stress -resistant. You will study all your life, the scope of video editing is constantly developing: if you do not grow in it, you will be overboard. Also, for me, a very important quality is responsibility in relation to myself and to the viewer.

I quickly said goodbye to employees who did not want to answer for their work and did not seek to improve it. He should cause a sense of ownership with what is happening in the viewer - what is called "looks in one breath." And for this, in addition to a number of craft skills, the ability to work in installation programs, graphic editors, compositioning programs and special effects, you need to have knowledge in the field of directing, sound engineering, color correction.

A separate story with music video - it requires a certain musicality and a sense of rhythm to work with it.The list of fashion trends in this area is changing day by day, but I would like to note the widest application of another level of material - the use of bitter and higher video, logarithmic profile, filming on anamorphic optics for the subsequent installation of the product and new methods of using Motion Capture technology, allowing to compat 3D characters and videos from the scene.

Video contents need to have knowledge in the field of directing, sound engineering, color correction. They have wide functionality, they are most in demand in our market. You do not have to retrain in another program to work in a professional project. This is a bitrate, resolution, format, partial ratio, color profile and expansion. You will definitely encounter slang that you need to understand.

And this creative profession because you can express your thoughts and feelings without words. It will be easier for you to get used to the profession and become a cool specialist, if you have something to say and show this world. It is very important to have a sense of taste and a sense of tempo.
