    Why in the hell doesn't anybody do this?

    I see design contests for logos all the time...

    I see contests for post whores...

    I see contests for people that can make good sales...

    but what about us video editors? Why you boys ain't making any contests for us? I'd love a stab at some prize money for some extra creative work!


    Some of you bigshots should try something new and give us video editors a break


    Well thats my rant for today... I'm off to go eat!

            Don't most editors have steady jobs or good freelance work? I wouldn't think a bunch of editors would waste their time with some little contest is all?

              Its not job hunting, its having fun

              I've got almost 2 full time jobs editing video, but I do manage to have some free time here and there. Personnally, I could always fit in a contest or 2

                  editing can take so much time and I don't think editors would go through hours of editing just for a contest. IMHO
                  Increase your sales. Up to $4 per click.

                    Depends on what you're editing and how skilled you are.

                    I'm usually fairly quick at my work. But thats because I know where I am going most of the time.

                        Because there aren't many freelancers. Most compagnies have fulltime editors

                                A sponsor should put up 5 mins of footage and their logo. See which editor comes up with the best trailer for their site.

                                          A couple hundred bucks for 15-20 mins. of design work ain't shabby. And like someone else said, despite havin' a fulltime gig...I still have a little spare time for shits 'n giggles.

                                                      it has to zoom in on their faces and look 100% real hardcore action

                                                      i'll give you 30 bucks
                                                      That's how most designers feel the contests are. But there's always some broke ass motherfucker willing to whore themselves out for the CHANCE at that $30.

                                                      Spend you some brain.
