About

Videos about film editing. We're Hayden Hillier-Smith and Jordan Orme, and we realised that with the explosion of the internet, video editing is in our lives more than we realise...and with "YouTuber" or “Filmmaker” being the top job kids want today, the demand for editors will only escalate. Editing now is like what coding was during the DotCom era: just like everyone needed a website, soon everyone will need an editor.
