Re: A question about salary, as usual.

Really? That low? I've seen a lot of people who say they editors or assistants, but tend to not have any real experience in arenas that matter. Anybody can add a couple of edits and click a few buttons. But what about the people who know what to do when an Avid isn't functioning properly, or how to encode discs without producing horrific interlacing issues. Or the more obvious things like properly prepping for telecines and color timing sessions, or prepping for VFX work and mixes.

I mean, tons of people are coming out of the woodwork, but hiring a bad assistant makes the company look bad. That must count for something.
