Maybe I Could Have 2 Jobs...

Watching the new Harry Potter 6 trailer makes me want to be a movie trailer editor.



The book wasn't that scary or that intense. So that is a testament to the director of the movie and the movie trailer editor for making it look that good. Seriously. It made me want to read the book for the 5th time (one of my favorites). It made me want to get the car from Back to the Future and drive 85 mph to July 17, 2009.

It must be cool to make a video that would excite people this much. Getting the full movie months earlier and watching it, imagining the trailer in your mind, splicing clips, syncing them up to the musical score, then getting paid to do all of these... Yep, I need to take video editing seriously now.
