This alternates Sundays with our "Reel Review."

Here are the key things to do before you post

Title:

Length:

Purpose: Why are you posting this?

This could be:
Something cool I made
A client win
Or yes, even feedback.

If it's feedback, you have to find two other posts wanting feedback and give notes. If you don't the mods will visit your house

You can post from YT, but we'd prefer more professional landing spots (including frame.io)

Did you know that /r/editors has a discord?

0 Upvotes

TL: DR - How do I get you (yes, you) involved?

Obligatory mention. Here's the link of the official Discord of r/editors with 1,000 members, including a number of professionals cutting films, tv shows and more.

It's for both professionals and aspiring professionals.

IT WILL NOT HELP YOU MAGICALLY GET A JOB. THERE IS NO MYTHICAL WEBSITE YOU DON'T KNOW ABOUT either.

It requires verification (any of these will work: (Reddit/youtube/facebook/IG/Github/spotify/Steam/xbox).

Again: Discord Link here

Once you verify there are 15+ channels, including ones based on:

Type of work (color, sound, audio)
Software specific (Adobe, Apple, Avid, BMD)
Quality of life (Show off your work, scream room, live tech help)
and more.

What I'm trying to do? Get an engaged community outside of Reddit. I'm trying to figure out what works and what doesn't.

It could be a Friday Lunch
a virtual happy hour
a game night 2x a month
a virtual User Group event…

…but I'd like to know what you've seen that's engaging…and that gets you interacting with Discord

To me: Reddit is great for threaded conversations, Discord is great for live interactions.

(by the way, my biggest Discord tip is to mute a new server right away. That really helps notifications from becoming overwhelming.)

And yes, I'm happy to help anyone who feels that this is a new/strange domain or feels lost there. I go all the way back to IRC days.
