Editors Bootcamp: Final_Rev 3
In November we presented a new edition of Editors Bootcamp (our 3rd year!) with a fresh program to empower editors, post specialists, and students to expand their craft.
This year’s series offered an incredible lineup of presentations led by working editors, assistant editors, sound designers, and post-production specialists. The sessions offered 170 attendees practical solutions to become a more effective editor and collaborator. Now we’re pleased to make them available online for you to watch, learn, and enjoy!
Join our mailing list to receive future updates on Editors Bootcamp and other workshops.
Special thanks to Editors Bootcamp program committee: Tim Mangini (Senior Director of Production Technology, GBH), Barry Clegg (Senior Editor, FRONTLINE), and Eric Gulliver (Producer & Editor).
Thank you to our event partner GBH The Production Group and our sponsors!
