🎬 Most editors are focused on the WRONG things…
They obsess over flashy animations, trending TikTok-style effects, and technical tricks — but they completely miss what actually makes editing powerful: story and emotion.
Editing isn’t just a side hustle or a way to “make things look cool.” It’s one of the most powerful art forms in the world. You literally have the ability to take an idea, a feeling, or a story — and bring it to life in a way that makes people feel something.
In my latest video, I break down:
Why great editing is about psychology, not plugins
The 3 layers of Emotional Architecture every edit needs
Subtle but game-changing techniques like Walter Murch’s Blink Theory
How films like Arrival and Inception use editing to hook the human brain
And how to use tools like MotionVFX (without falling into the “surface editing” trap)
If you’ve ever wondered how to edit in a way that people can’t look away from, this video will change the way you see editing forever.
