VIDEO EDITOR
You need to be extremely determined to succeed in editing, so you'll have to show a willingness to get involved and be prepared to do the most basic of tasks. Carrying out work experience, for example in other areas of media production, will give you the chance to demonstrate this and help you to decide if the precision and intensity of the work is for you.
You'll be expected to have pre-entry experience and will need to show evidence of having worked on film or video production or post-production, preferably via an up to date and well-prepared showreel.
If you're at university you can join the film-making society and learn editing techniques there. Any films you work on can be used as a portfolio to evidence your skills when you're starting out.
