Secret Editing Hacks
25-minute Mini-course for aspiring filmmakers & editors who want to cut like pro-TV & feature film editors. 70% of great editing comes from applying this single editing technique.
Outline
I demo the most critical editing technique I use when I start cutting any feature film or documentary. Pro-editor don't rely on their talent alone. They all have a system. It took me over a decade to perfect mine and you can experience how it works in less than 30 min.

I'm an ACE Award-nominated editor who cut for James Cameron (3D-Imax 'Ghosts Of The Abyss'), Mark Webber (Sundance Grand Jury Prize nominee, 'The End of Love'), and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (Emmy-Winning 'HitRECord on TV').
Films I cut premiered at Sundance, SXSW, Cannes, and played theatrically across the nation. I worked as Supervising Editor on several TV shows on networks like Bravo, E!, and Fox. I was the Go-To Editor for companies like Fremantle Media (American Idol) and cut pilots for them for more than five years.
My YouTube Channel 'This Guy Edits' has over 475k subscribers and focuses on creative storytelling and editing. I taught Film Editing at Columbia College Hollywood, and I am a regular guest lecturer at the UCLA Film Extension. I now designed this course where I teach you everything I know about becoming a Go-To Editor.
Testimonial
By Anoop Hothi (VaynerMedia London)
"Morning Sven.
I finally used your methodology and WOW, the first video I edited at work blew everyone’s socks off on my team!!
Our creative director actually brought it up again the other day in a separate conversation (for this week’s new edit) and was intrigued how I had all of sudden pulled out great cutaways etc and made such a good edit. So, I told him about yourself, your channels and your tutorial I watched. He asked me to send it to him and I just did before sending you this email:)
Thank you, Sven. Really appreciate you."

The course features real success stories from me and other participants, but you should not expect the same results. Building an editing career (and/or becoming a go-to editor) takes hard work, dedication, and significant time. There is no guarantee that you will be successful or make any amount of money.
