A professional film editor is an expert in the art of ‘cutting’. Editors work in studios, view footage shot by the directors to fine tune audio-visual output, and use their skills to mix, or glide smoothly between the narrative sequence and music so that it makes sense and appeals to audiences. Narrative skills and thorough understanding of the script and screenplay to add depth or compress footage, are required of a competent editor. And apart from inherent creativity, proficiency in the editing software application Final Cut Pro (FCP) is mandatory.
Among the prominent institutes offering film editing study programs are: The central government’s Film & Television Institute of India (FTII), Pune; Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute, Kolkata; Whistling Woods International, Mumbai; Flash Frame Visuals Academy of Film & Video Editing, Bangalore; Digital Academy, Mumbai
The media industry, especially film and television has a very bright future in India and worldwide. With films, television, advertising and internet industries all generating massive volumes of content, the demand for professionally qualified, on-the-ball film editors is likely to intensify. It’s a career option with huge opportunities and is well worth considering.
